Smart Assistant
A smart assistant is the beating heart of any smart home. It’s up to you to choose which assistant you’d like, from Google Home better suited to Android devices to Apple Home for Apple Devices. Your smart assistant integrates everything from just one voice command from you or your family members. It’s as easy as “Ok Google, turn on the washing machine.”
Smart Appliances
These days, smart appliances are endless; if it’s a wifi capable device or a device linked to a smart plug in your home, everything can be automated and integrated seamlessly. These can include any appliance from the fridge and washing machine to the TV and lighting in your humble abode.
Control Panel
While a smart assistant is great, it’s also a good idea to have a home control panel in the shape of a tablet or iPad. This allows you to turn things on and off at the touch of a button, including your garage door and smart home security system.
Vacuum and Mopping Robot
Cleaning? That doesn’t sound fun. Especially mopping and vacuuming. You can get a smart mop/vacuum device that runs around your house on a schedule that you create, so that you can wake up to or come home to a sparkling clean floor.
