Smart Homes: Improving Our Lives One Device at a Time

We all have different ideas when it comes to having a good quality of life, but there are some aspects that most people can agree on:

  • We want to feel safe and have peace of mind.
  • We enjoy convenience and feeling comfortable. 
  • We strive for physical and mental wellness outside of the hectic pace of our day-to-day lives. 

Where can you look to add more of these things to your life? Smart devices. 

Safety & Peace of Mind

Smart devices allow you to monitor your home—from smart smoke and carbon monoxide detectors to security cameras—through your cell phone. If you’re sitting at your desk at work and realized you forgot to lock the front door, you can just open your app and lock it remotely.

Whether you’re at the store or on an extended vacation, smart devices allow you to be notified if anything is amiss at home. Smart devices can also help elderly family members maintain their independence while monitoring their safety. For example, a smart device can remind family members to take their medication on time or notify caregivers of a fall. 

Convenience & Comfort

Smart home technologies can completely streamline how you control your home and add convenience to your daily routines. For example, you can use voice commands to schedule reminders on your Google Home or Alexa device, set an alarm for work, or place an online order. Smart vacuums and mops can handle the housework while you’re away from home, while smart doorbells allow you to see who’s at the door without leaving the couch. 

Smart thermostats bring together convenience, comfort, and energy efficiency by learning your temperature preferences and schedule; thermostats with geofencing know when you’re on your way home and can automatically adjust the temperature of your home to your liking. Not only do these devices add comfort and convenience to our lives, but they also free up more time for us to do the things we enjoy.

Physical & Mental Wellness 

Physical and mental wellness is an important topic in our fast-paced society, especially after the stressors of the pandemic. Smart devices can help improve both health and well-being in a number of ways. Adding auto-dimming lights and motorized shades can help create consistency with your circadian rhythm for a better night’s sleep, while smart beds can ensure comfort throughout the night by monitoring your sleep patterns and making automatic adjustments. 

Ultraviolet disinfectant lighting can sanitize your kitchen countertops in seconds, keeping them clean and germ-free; smart mirrors can measure health stats like blood flow, respiration, and other factors to alert you of potential health concerns. Wearable devices can also be on-the-go health monitors, allowing you to track heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and more.  

Smart Devices Make the Holidays More Festive

Smart devices can obviously enhance and improve our daily lives in a variety of ways—but what about the holidays? There are nearly endless ways you can use smart devices to make the holidays more fun, festive, and convenient. For example:

  • Automate your Halloween or Christmas lights to turn on and off using voice commands.
  • Conserve energy by plugging your lights into a smart plug and setting a schedule through your smart assistant—or use them to create a holiday light show. 
  • Sync your lights to holiday music for the perfect ambiance. 
  • Track Santa’s location with your Google Home or Alexa device. 
  • Make meals and entertaining easier by using your smart home hub to find recipes, shop for ingredients, and have recipe steps read aloud while you cook. 
  • Prevent porch poachers from stealing packages with a video doorbell or smart security cameras. 
  • Set the mood with color-changing smart bulbs.
  • Greet your guests with holiday cheer by changing your smart doorbell chime to something more festive.
  • Keep your Christmas tree fresh and green with a smart watering device.
