Smarter HomeS<br />
Infiltrating every arena of our lives, technology aims to make our lives better.<br />
Greater efficiency, economy, comfort, and safety are cornerstones of the<br />
technological advancements that are constantly being imagined and developed to<br />
make our homes a haven from, and connected to, the outside world.<br />
Biometric fingerprint security systems, key<br />
cards, and voice-activated lighting were once<br />
only seen on the seemingly fantastical movies<br />
of 20 years ago. Today, however, they have all<br />
come to fruition on the home front, the realm<br />
of possibilities seems limited only by one's<br />
imagination.<br />
Smart home technology has filtered<br />
through all aspects of our lives, which<br />
promises greater comfort, safety, economy,<br />
efficiency, and overall enjoyment of the world<br />
in which we live.<br />
Smarter building materials, smarter<br />
architectural design, smarter appliances,<br />
and smarter software systems that offer fully<br />
integrated multi-sensory platforms are being<br />
envisioned and created faster than we can get<br />
our heads around how to operate them.<br />
So, what is your home missing that<br />
could deliver optimal comfort beyond your<br />
wildest dreams? For those of us who spend<br />
long periods away from home on business,<br />
remote-access security cameras are becoming<br />
a popular commodity.<br />
Cameras placed in and around your home<br />
can be controlled and viewed via a remotely<br />
connected device so no matter where you are<br />
in the world you can have peace of mind that<br />
when you return everything will be just as<br />
you left it.<br />
Home security systems can also welcome<br />
you home at the end of every day with<br />
intelligent preset computer modules. On your<br />
approach the garage door opens, the driveway<br />
is sufficiently illuminated and the alarm<br />
system is deactivated.<br />
Home & Property appears<br />
every Thursday, delivered FREE<br />
throughout Christchurch<br />

When receiving visitors, automated<br />
lighting can be activated above the door<br />
when the buzzer is pressed and crystal-clear<br />
video monitors now give you the ability to<br />
zoom in with touch-screen controls and<br />
developments in sound technology are able<br />
to negate background noise for optimal audio<br />
communication.<br />
Smart temperature control is a valuable<br />
piece of technology to give you greater<br />
comfort inside.<br />
Sync the controls to your mobile device<br />
so you can activate the heating or air<br />
conditioning on your way home from the<br />
office so it’s the perfect climate on your<br />
arrival. Smart temperature control systems<br />
give you total control over power and fuel<br />
consumption, heating and cooling your home<br />
efficiently and economically.<br />
Automated lighting is another smart<br />
feature that is becoming more and more<br />
commonplace in households around<br />
the world. Easily integrated into existing<br />
homes, most automated lighting systems are<br />
controlled from a central panel or via a smart<br />
mobile device.<br />
LED lights enable you to control colour,<br />
brightness, and efficiency, depending on the<br />
mood and task at hand, while automated<br />
controls can even make adjustments based<br />
on changing conditions like occupancy or<br />
daylight availability, saving money in the long<br />
run.<br />
Whatever the future holds, it promises to<br />
change the world as we know it.<br />
