In 1907 the first hotel with automatic air conditioning was built in Chicago. In the 1950s, the first device for multiple control of all system information in different buildings, called System 320, was made in the United States: it was the principle of building automation. Since then, technology and electronics have made great strides, integrating with each other in what is now known as
“home automation.”
. A discipline that enables the automation of home management and control remotely.
The aim is to improve the quality of life, in terms of safety and reduced operating costs, by designing technologies that communicate with each other, replace old systems, and provide increasing comfort.
Thus, the smart and intelligent home becomes the dream of many Italians: this is shown by recent studies, according to which, moreand more people want home appliances to be controlled remotely, monitoring their use, consumption and performance with a simple click from their smartphones. A good wi–fi connection, wireless devices, apps and remote controls become the magic wand to fulfill the dream of managing one’s home with minimal effort, adjusting, for example, the turning on or off of lights, while sitting comfortably on the sofa or even from outside if one is not at home.
What can home automation control?
With good home automation work it will be possible:
– remotely operate technologically advanced home appliances such as an oven, washing machine, refrigerator, or dishwasher;
– Adjust the lighting or video surveillance system;
– operate heating or air-conditioning systems, providing net energy savings on electricity consumption.
What do Italians dream about?
Instead, among the most coveted desires of Italians are:
– refrigerator with which to directly order groceries and which sends a signal when foods are expiring;
– the washing machine that independently identifies the best washing program based on the items placed in the drum and the most suitable time slot to save energy;
– the oven who also knows how to cook by giving tips on cooking and recipes and indicating when the dish is cooked to perfection.
No utopia, but an increasingly possible and close reality.
Secsun believes in the power of technologies and the possibility of an increasingly less distant future, which is why we design and manufacture electrical panels to control a home automation home.
