Home Automation and Smart Home Technology are not daunting to consider, it is merely a collection of integrated concepts bringing this same level of control, entertainment, comfort and security to the place where you spend most of your time, your home.
In addition to facilitating all homework, smart home gadgets are also a great way to reduce your heating and electricity costs. However, what is the trends in smart home technology in 2020?
Smart home technology is designed to help your home run more efficiently and to make it easier for you to access and control various features and devices.
Did you know that one of the most important appliances in the kitchen – the fridge – can now do much more than just keep the food fresh and cool. In 2020, there will be a tendency for refrigerators to be loaded with countless other features that will make your kitchen another smart home in the home. Here are some of the features:
The refrigerator will be able to set meal schedules for each family member;
He will also be able to read you the recipes as you cook;
It will help you synchronize grocery lists with your phone;
You will also be able to look into your refrigerator without opening it through transparent touch screens;
The fridge will also be able to let you know of expired food.
Another kitchen widget also lets you control the cooking in real-time, even when you are miles away from your home, using your smartphone, through built-in wi-fi.
We are all aware of the many benefits of having a good night's sleep. This is why not only can your bedroom be able to make your life easier, but it can also help improve your health.
You probably know that there are apps that track your sleep and allow you to watch it. Improvement will be a fact in the coming year, and their benefits will be innumerable.
An enhanced version of these applications is a mattress that monitors your sleep patterns, controls the temperature of your bed and even knows when to wake you up (based on the “depth” of your sleep).
And if you need a gentler wake-up call, a smart aromatherapy alarm clock will make your morning more enjoyable. When you are in the lightest phase of your sleep cycle, it emits a specific scent to wake you up.
Smart living room
In the future, sitting in front of the TV will be a much more complex experience than it is today. That is, the layout of your living room will be much different. For example, you will not have a visible TV in the room. Instead, when you're ready to watch TV, you'll be able to click a button or say a phrase and the high-definition projector will materialize from the ceiling.
You'll also have a massive entertainment and TV area projecting on your wall. Sometimes smart home technology is about knowing when to turn them off to save both money and energy. While using smart home technology is fun and easy, it can elevate your risk of exploitation, identity theft, and cybercrime.
The possibilities are endless, and 2020 is close.
Smart bath
We are still far from it, but someday spa experiences will be completely normal in most homes. And with them, the possibilities for a smart bathroom are becoming more and more:
You do not have to adjust the heat of the bathwater yourself or fill your bath. You will have a digital assistant who will take care of that for you.
In addition, your smart bath will be able to release relaxing brain waves and aromatherapy in just a few clicks from your smartphone. The bath widgets will have nose-guided gadgets that will help you individually design your aromatherapy sessions.
You see for yourself that the possibilities are truly endless. Technology is advancing day by day, and home gadgets every second. So 2020 is a great time to start a new, smarter era in your home.
