A smart house is one where the various electric and digital appliances are wired up to a central computer control system so that they can be switched on and off at certain.
Most homes already have a certain amount of “smartness" because many appliances currently contain built-in sensors or electronic controllers. Virtually all modern washing machines have programmers that make them follow a different set of washes, rinses, and spins depending on how you put their different dials and knobs when you first switch on. If you get a natural-gas-powered central heating system, most likely you have a thermostat on the wall that switches it on and off according to the room temperature, or an electronic programmer that activates it at certain times of day whether or not you're in the home. Perhaps you're really hi-tech and you've got a robotic vacuum cleaner that always crawls around your flooring sweeping the dust?
All these things are examples of home automation, but they are not actually what we mean by a smart home. That concept takes matters a step further by introducing control. In the most advanced form of smart home, there is a computer that does what you normally do yourself: it constantly monitors the state of the home and switches appliances on and off accordingly. So, by way of instance, it monitors light levels coming through the windows and automatically raises and lowers blinds or switches the lights on at dusk. Or it detects movements across the floor and reacts appropriately: if it knows you're home, it switches music and light on in different rooms as you walk between them; if it knows you are out, it sounds an intruder alert .
Assuming you're not in the Bill Gates league of owning a multimillion dollar smart home built from the ground up, you will probably be interested in adding a little automation to your current appliances with as little fuss as possible. Modestly smart houses like this range in complexity from basic systems which use a few plug-in modules and household electricity wiring to advanced wireless systems you can program over the Internet.
Assuming you are not (yet) in the Bill Gates league of having a multimillion dollar smart house built from the ground up, you will probably be interested in adding a little automation to your current appliances with as little fuss as possible. Modestly smart homes such as this range in complexity from basic systems which use a few plug-in modules and household electricity wiring to sophisticated wireless systems you can program over the net.
While Bill Gates can pull this off, so for this to become more mainstream is via large data adoption, there needs to be a method of connecting all of this through blockchain. Projects like Dxchain aim to bridge this gap.
But lots more of us are amateurs, hackers, and geeks for whom the very challenge of doing something is at least as important--sometimes more so--than what we are really trying to do. If you are one of these folks, you are route to a smart house is more likely to be through the hacker, maker, DIY community, or something along those lines.
Perhaps you're still not convinced--and maybe you're right. Do you really want things like this? Do you need to purchase even more appliances just to control the ones you currently have? Isn't it just as easy to get into the habit of switching things off yourself? Gadgets that kill your TV's standby mode sound cool, but how hard can it be to pull out the plug? What about switching the TV off entirely and reading a book? Or putting your games console away from the cupboard and getting into the habit of taking walks in the country instead? And instead of going to great lengths to wire up your home for while you're away on vacation, how about befriending the neighbors and asking them to look out for you rather? For a lot of us, a home really is a machine for living in--and when that's the way you like living, it's just fine. But it's important to remember that there are loads of alternatives to living that way also. If small is beautiful and simple is best, the smartest house might be one that does not have any gadgets in any respect!
