Yes, the world is becoming smarter today and this smartness has surely been brought upon with the addition of technology. It’s the technology which has affected each and every element in our life and nowadays, there is almost everything smart that you can imagine in your life.
Initially, our phones became smarter and soon, there was a huddle to turn everything else smart too. The televisions became smarter, the watches became smarter, the cities and now, the homes… Opines Hirav Shah, Celebrated Strategist and Business Astrologer.
Concept
The concept of a “smart home” is steadily becoming a norm in daily living with the market introduction of smart plugs that can connect internet-enabled home appliances and gadgets alike. Once the devices are connected through a frequency operating under your home broadband Wi-Fi, the homeowner can remotely access and operate these internet connected devices even when the person is away from the house.
Smart home technology is making strides in making it easier for homes to adapt and quickly realise the benefits of home automation. With an emerging steep market and a competitive industry being moulded with the home automation platform, companies and tech providers are now keen to introduce better products within the near future.
According to the Internet of Things (IoT) analysts, the future of the smart home will evolve from its commercial “plug and play” setting into an “integrated” feature where smart home technology will be a standard feature for new homes built in the future.
When it comes to the smart home system integration mechanic, several platforms derived from smart plugs are already making a market entry and they will shape the functional features of every smart home very soon, Says Business Strategist Hirav Shah.
Full Home Automation
In order to get started with smart homes, homeowners can purchase a smart hub with their embedded feature called a smart home virtual assistant. The smart home hub is a quick starter kit in transforming your home into automation. Companies such as Google, Amazon, Apple and are set to introduce smart hubs with home assistants that will help homeowners manage their security, lighting, climate, water, networked appliances and entertainment systems. With a smart home virtual assistant, homeowners can monitor the connection status and configure each end device remotely.
Energy Efficiency with Automation
Automation is not only gearing up smart homes for convenience, but also towards a model of energy efficiency through automated monitoring embedded into new sources such as the existing home battery and solar batteries. With automation in place and the strategic application of functional energy incorporated into the home, homeowners can decide which part of the house can be powered by solar, home battery or electricity. In connecting the energy sources in an automated smart home energy management system , homes will be able to adjust heating and turn off connected lights, appliances, water without human assistance. This makes for a very efficient home as the home can monitor its energy consumption by itself and make informed decisions with the guidance of the homeowner in making adjustments to reach a level of energy efficiency.
Smart Insulation
Every home has a window designed out of their aesthetics, but in the near future, windows will also become smarter with the science of energy conversion and monitoring applied in the manufacturing of the glass material. The concept of smart technology windows will make it easier and more efficient to retain heat and therefore, improve the insulation capabilities of the home. With an embedded sensor, smart home windows can help monitor the weather conditions outside and pass on that data to the centralized home energy management system in order for the platform to make its own adjustments with the thermostat.
Hybrid Car Friendly Garages
Major car manufacturers have already rolled out the environmentally friendly hybrid cars that are powered by clean energy sources ranging from hybrid batteries and hydrogen engines. With the growth of the hybrid car industry, homes and their garage must restructure to accommodate the waves of hybrid vehicles making their way to the homeowner’s driveways. This means that garages in the future must have space to place the charging ports that come with the purchase of hybrid cars. Such setup will impact the electrical setup of how we build houses.
One would be surprised that the functional concepts of the smart home already exist today, but as smart homes gain more traction in the concept of adoption, expect the emergence of smart home builders that engineer automated homes right from the start.
Conclusion
10 years back, controlling your home’s lights, thermostat and security systems remotely by means of cell phone would have seemed like cutting edge sci-fi. However, 2017 ended up being the time of the smart home. Innovation in this market keeps on developing a far cry, and Zion Market Research predicts it will reach $53.45 billion by 2022.
When everything is going smart, why should humanity not become smart.
Smart in decision making. Smart in goal setting.
But we failed in 2020 right !
We were not smart in strategizing.
We were not smart in taking an expert opinion last year.
Today, there is no denying that we harbour a deep keenness to know what business and life has in store for us in 2021. Perhaps that is why many of us are taking recourse to astrology — in search of hope, or even to prepare in advance for the forthcoming successes and failures. Critics might say it all depends on “karma”, but then something like a pandemic leads to unprecedented havoc that is out of our control, rendering many helpless and unsure of what’s going to happen next.
“But today there is more to mere Astrology and that’s Astro-Strategy.
Ready to transform your business in 2021. With an Astro-Strategic consultation, you can take on challenges with absolute confidence and certainty.” Opines Hirav Shah, India’s leading Astro-Strategist.
