Is it really possible to control the whole house with the help of voice

In the 21st century, voice assistants have firmly entered our lives, although they appeared only recently. Their task is to save our time. They are in every smartphone, and no one is surprised.

Now imagine if you can control not just one phone, but the whole room? Control lighting, alarms, air conditioners? To implement such a system, special intelligent electronics are installed in the house.

What does it take to command a voice?

So far, the only method has been developed for the integrated management of a workspace or apartment – smart home systems. They are divided into wired and wireless. A feature of the second is a narrow range of possible devices (sockets, lamps). Therefore, we advise you to pay attention to wired smart homes. They work thanks to cables embedded in the walls and connecting the main items of equipment with life support systems.

Command recognition options:

1. Using the Alice column from Yandex or HomePod from Apple. Commands can be given at any time by voice or through other gadgets of the same brand. Thanks to the noise reduction system, there is no interference with the perception of voice. This method is popular in the CIS countries, due to its simplicity, practicality and functionality.
2. Android fans can use speakers with the same functionality – Alice and Marusya.
3. Voice assistants from Google and Amazon are also a convenient way. They are controlled in English by voice or via a paired application. Unfortunately, they do not recognize Russian well or do not recognize it at all, so the speakers are more popular than them.

What can you control?

Voice command is applicable to almost all devices in apartments:

• Curtains;
• Columns;
• Heating, climate control;
• Light;
• Alarm system, locks, doors;
• Leak and motion sensors;
• Irrigation system;
• Intercom and video surveillance.

In addition, the devices can be synchronized with each other. You don’t need to give commands to each gadget separately, it’s enough to say, for example, “I’m leaving” when it’s time to leave for work, and the system will automatically switch all devices to energy-saving mode, turn off the forgotten light and connect the alarm system. You can create dozens of such commands, through which the activation of the entire space takes a few seconds.

Should I use voice control mode?

Undoubtedly, yes! A smart home successfully fulfills your desires and needs and greatly simplifies life. The main thing is to take into account that the wires for communication devices must be installed at the very beginning, even before the walls are sewn, so plan repairs in advance.

Still in doubt about buying?

Smart homes are fairly recent technologies, and not everywhere they are. For those people who doubt the purchase, manufacturers create special offices where you can see the work of the system with your own eyes and make sure of your decision.
