В данной презентации рассмотрены вопросы нужности и полезности технологии Умный дом, а также представлены преимущества и недостатки этой системы.

"Smart house" often means a complex and expensive system of remote control lights, heating and other systems , but now it had become much wider. There are "smart" building materials , applications for the iPhone, which allow you to turn off electrical appliances at a distance ( in case you forget to turn off the iron from the socket) , and robots that can do the cleaning for you . Look At Me figured out what technologies and materials change our home in the future.

Mobile applications. There are more low-cost devices for controlling household utilities , which can be controlled by the application for the iPhone. For example , the thermostat Nest, designed by a former employee of Apple, worth to just $ 249 and predictable technique reminiscent of Apple. Thermostat helps to save energy ( heating it off when no one is home ) and using mobile applications can be controlled temperature regime in the distance.

Also , there are many devices that allow you to change the lighting in the house with the help of the application, and the company has even developed Phillips bulbs controlled with mobile devices - they are called Philips Hue. Another interesting development - WeMo. It allows you to control the phone with all electrical appliances in the house. With the application on your phone , you can even open locks : for this device exists August Smart Lock, created by the famous designer Yves BEAR. The lock is installed on a special device that detects the mobile phone owner. You can also send encrypted electronic key to their friends and relatives or to provide them with access to certain times.

Robots assistants. If the robot cleaners Roomba more like no surprise , then robotic assistants that can be cleaned or even care for the elderly, have not yet become part of our everyday life. While there is no such smart ( and affordable ) robots , like in the movie " Robot and Frank ," but already developed such assistants , such as , Hector - this robot resembles an elderly owner of the need to drink any medicine , take a walk , or call.

If you care for the elderly do not want to trust all the robots that perform some household chores they still can provide. Software company has already established Roomba vacuum cleaner , for example, the robot Mint, who washes the floor, and the robot Mirra, who knows how to clean your pool . Also in this year's CES consumer electronics was presented robot Winbot, which he cleans the windows .

Household appliances and social networks. Sometimes the connection to the internet everyday items seems quite justified - for example, on the screen of the refrigerator to look for recipes is more convenient than going to the kitchen with the tablet . However, the developers Samsung went on: at CES 2013 was presented refrigerator T9000 c operating system Android, the screen which you can not only search for recipes , but view Google calendar, write notes in Evernote, listen to music and send tweets . However, some are not limited Twitter- fridge. For example , a California blogger and expert in the field of technology Tom Coates sozdalTwitter - account for their home. Coates is the co-founder of Product Club and supports the idea of " Internet of Things " - he believes that the connection to the web more art can make everyday life much easier .
