An Intelligent House

The lights are on, blinds are uplifted, coffee is freshly brewed and a pleasant melody from the radio wakes you up. You get up, drink coffee or tea and you start a new day. When you are out, the lights trip, forgotten machines switch off and the temperature drops. The alarm is activated and blinds are partially hidden. Wherever you are, you can check whether everything is fine at home and what is going on there. When you come back the self-adapted cooker is turning on with your dinner and the temperature is changing to the most comfortable. While getting in, you hear your favourite songs and TV is already playing. When you go to bed all unnecessary devices switch off and the house is keeping an eye on everything in order not to disturb your dreams.

Impossible? Until recently, it was impossible because we have seen such houses only on movies or read about them in books. However, today such houses appear in our real lives. Advanced technology, which is available today, let us make this dream come true. Intelligent houses are also appearing in our country. This technology is becoming more and more available and an integral part of our lives. The same situation was with mobiles phones or Tvs, at first these things were only available for army or governments but after some time also for ordinary people.

A short note about intelligent houses:

What is it? This question raised a vivid discussion because everyone answers differently on that question. To be precise, it is a link between a whole infrastructure, installations and devices at home. They are connected in such a way that they create a coherent system. Its purpose is to make your life easier and more comfortable. It also builds up the sense of safety and decreases exploitation costs.

Eventual possibilities of the system at an intelligent house:

• controlling the alarm system
• controlling appliances (washing machine, fridge)
• controlling the lights
• controlling audio equipment
• controlling the central heating and air conditioning
• detector of light, wind or rain
• detector of opening and closing doors
• domestic videophone set
• intelligent doors

The possibility of controlling most of the devices is not only a convenience for lazy people but also a chance to arrange your activities to, for example, water the grass. The system is also supervising whether the cooker is not working or if the doors are not opened. It reminds you about closing the doors in order not to invite the thief. When it will be properly programmed it can stimulate the presence of householders at home, when actually they are 2000miles away from home, sunbathing on the beach. The system possesses the fire and movement detector, moreover it can inform alerting information services about a dangerous situation. In this way it protects our house while we are out. The system make our lives easier in many ordinary activities, even in those about which we sometimes forget or we do not pay attention to them such as decreasing temperature or turning off the lights.

Modern voice stimulation:

Intelligent houses are our future, in a few years they will become inseparable part of people's lives. We will depend on them and they will depend on us but for sure they will help us in our daily tasks more than we think. They will also give us more possibilities for development in such way that we will have more time to do other things probably more important for us.

Increase of selling intelligent systems through last few years:

Everyone, who considers a purchase of the intelligent installation is usually thinking about cost-effectiveness of such investment. Not to mention, the fact that such systems let us considerably decrease the usage of electric and thermal energy, as well as water. Think for a while, how much the comfort of your life, your family and your property, is worth. Do you have any more doubts?
