SET UP SMART HOME

Smart homes are a growing trend. Smart lighting is a technology for lighting spaces designed for energy efficiency and cost effectiveness. Smart lighting saves electricity and allows users to control lighting and heating via remote. The concept of smart lighting system involves utilization of natural light from the sun to reduce the use of man-made lighting and switching off artificial light on leaving the room.

In India, smart lighting has now become popular with the introduction of Apps. Smart Lighting can be controlled from an app, usually on your Apple or Android phone. 

The brightness of lightscan be easily adjusted and controlled. Smart lights are ideal for situations when lighting plays a major role, such as in the evening or during parties. System helps to cut energy bill and makes life simple at home.

Now, you must be wondering how to make your home a Smart home.

For that, you have several options.

You can use Plug-in, that allows you to plug-in intelligence to your light. This refers to adapters that turn average lights into automated lights. They are best used for one or two rooms at a time.

The wire-in mechanism is slightly more complicated, but not much more difficult, and lets you control the lighting in your entire house.

Then, you can also remotely control the lights of your home without a switch. Remote control of lights is also possible with Smart Lighting where you can not only switch on or off the lights from a distance but also change the light settings. You can control the smart lightning system directly from your smart phone or tablet or Computer, through a plug-in interface, USB or Wi-Fi.

All this is possible with a simple control panel that uses a touchpad or other sort of control panel. You can also have Motion sensors that can detect when people enter a room. So, the lights automatically switch on when the area is occupied and switch off when people leave the room. So, in such a case you do not even have to control the lights. Smart lighting systems are sensor-integrated or non-sensor integrated. With sensors, the system can capture data and use the smart lighting program to set specific parameters for lights.

On the other hand, non-sensor systems require you to program them. You can schedule the lights to turn on and off whenever you would like, such as when your alarm goes off in the morning.

With smart lighting system, a variety of creative options are available. You can have different shades of lights. You can even change colors and patterns.

Smart home lightning isn’t just controlled with smart phone or tablet app. You can use Amazon’s Eco and Google home and operate it with your voice commands.

And that’s not all. There are more ways in which you can control your lighting with the help of smart home technology. For example, you can install noise-controlled lights that respond to clapping or specific words. With this system, you no longer need to get out of bed to turn off the lights.

You can save power and energy with the help of smart home lightning which otherwise puts a heavy impact on your wallet and also the environment. It is because smart home light can easily assess when exactly the lights need to be turned off. If you have left home without remembering the lights are turned off or not, you need not go back. You can easily check remotely wherever you are.
