6 Examples of Smart Homes for a Safe and Comfortable Home, Time to Upgrade!

It's not just the body and soul that need self-improvement , but the process of maturity must also be accompanied by an increasingly flashy home. Like the BIOTA admin who enriched himself with training certification , the house can also be 'educated' to be smart, you know!

By using smart home technology , homes can be made more sensitive to the needs of their occupants. Like smart light bulbs whose light intensity follows the sleep cycle, examples of smart home systems like this can make life more comfortable, guys .

How smart home works and what it means

Just as a standard watch is 'upgraded' to a smart watch thanks to the presence of a processor and wifi access, the principle of how a smart home works is also similar. By pairing a chip , home devices such as light bulbs can connect to the internet and access advanced features .

For example, smart light bulbs can be set to turn on or off at certain times, or the color and intensity of the light can be adjusted to suit your taste. All of these features can be accessed from a smartphone , and this flexibility is what makes smart home functions so varied .

From super aesthetic smart light bulbs to smart cameras that provide extra security, BIOTA admin was also initially overwhelmed by the abundant potential of smart homes !

Examples of the most popular smart home systems

In the last 10 years, smart home technology has indeed developed very rapidly. The positive thing is that smart home technology has become more mature so that the shortcomings of smart homes in the past such as their expensive prices are no longer too obvious or can be overcome.

On the negative side, with smart home technology becoming more mainstream , choosing the right product is becoming increasingly difficult. For now, for example, the BIOTA admin personally still doesn't see the benefit of a smart refrigerator, even though the price beats the cost of rent.

Instead of making the wrong choice, the following recommendations for the most popular smart home system examples can be used as inspiration for your next home improvement project !

With affordable prices and visible impacts, smart lighting is an example of a simple yet happy smart home application . Not only Smart Light Bulbs, there are also Smart LED Strips that can add the most aesthetic touch of light to a room.

With so many customizations, the Smart Light Bulb is more than just a light source . There’s a dimming feature that can act as a dark mode for your room, and there’s also a wake-up light to help you wake up in the morning by simulating the light of the rising sun.

For the creative minded, Smart LED Strip can fulfill the hidden desire to create a truly unique room. From decorating a child's room to expressing youth, the flexibility of Smart LED Strip gives you complete freedom to create .

Mimin BIOTA understands very well that ambiance is very important in creating a romantic atmosphere, and smart lighting can best accommodate such needs. Just choose the most suitable scene in the BIOTA application, and the night with your partner will automatically be 'hotter'!

In the world of college, there are always students who act as 'pulleys' in the class and become a benchmark during exams for other students whose hobby is leaving attendance. In smart homes , Smart Plugs also carry out the same task.

Just plug it in, and Smart Plug automatically upgrades the connected device to a smart device . Through this smart home example , the coffee machine for morning caffeine intake can immediately 'gas' while the BIOTA admin is still warming himself in the shower .

Not only for practical living, this wifi plug can also be an effective way to save electricity . Without the hassle of plugging and unplugging, Smart Plug can automatically cut off the power to devices such as washing machines and TVs when not in use to reduce energy use.

Home improvement is not just a matter of aesthetics and comfort, home security must also receive serious attention. Especially for those who like to travel , having a CCTV system at home is often enough to force thieves to think twice before breaking into the house.

Thanks to technological developments, CCTV that integrates smart home technology is now available to the wider public. Not only can it be monitored from a smartphone , smart cameras can even send notifications when the camera detects suspicious movement .

From inside the house or while on vacation, smart cameras can provide peace of mind for homeowners . Mimin BIOTA is not surprised to see smart CCTV become the most popular smart home example among new users.

Smart speaker - More than just a talking friend

For those who have hallucinatory tendencies, a smart speaker as a conversation partner may be able to reduce loneliness. In addition to being a conversation partner, a smart speaker can also act as a 'manager' for other smart home devices.

Through Google Nest, for example, BIOTA admin can ask Google Assistant to schedule a wake-up light on the Smart Light Bulb at 4 am to catch a plane. As a leading smart home brand , BIOTA is clearly integrated with the Google Home ecosystem so it must be smooth.

Unfortunately, voice command and smart speakers are very limited in range. For a type 36 house, you might have to shout a bit, so be prepared to set aside a bigger budget for additional smart speakers for those whose houses are already sultan-sized.

Seeing your pet's behavior going crazy does give its own happiness. But every pet owner must have experienced the suffering of having to clean up the fur that falls out in every corner of the house.

Well, to lighten the load like this, a robot vacuum must be included in your personal shopping cart . As the name suggests, a robot vacuum is an automatic vacuum cleaner that has sensors to navigate the room and can operate independently .

Just schedule it when you go to the office, the robot vacuum can guarantee that when you come home you will always be greeted with a shiny house. This example of a smart home is available at a fairly high price point, but a back free from the suffering of cleaning the house is priceless !

Smart sensor - Not magic, not sorcery

Science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke once said that 'any sufficiently sophisticated technology is indistinguishable from magic'. Using the " if-else" principle of programming, smart sensors are simple in nature, but in practice they are also like magic.

By detecting changes in the environment, smart sensors can 'tell' other smart devices to take action. For example, a Smart Door Sensor on a window can instruct a Smart Universal IR Remote to turn off the AC when the window is open.

Thanks to its nearly unlimited customization, this example of a smart home implementation can be as creative as the user's commitment to experiment. But smart sensors will be more effective when the ecosystem of smart home products in the home is already quite diverse.

Example of a smart home system for a safe and comfortable home

Although still relatively 'green', examples of smart homes and their applications in everyday life are increasingly visible. Mimin BIOTA now finds it difficult to imagine a gaming session without a Smart LED Strip enlivening the atmosphere in the background .

No need to worry about the perception that the smart home ecosystem is complicated to use. With the principle of ease of use and user-friendly smartphone applications , BIOTA Smart Home ensures that the transition to a smart home is as smooth as possible, guys .
