Smart home devices
More security and living comfort through intelligent home automation
What are smart home devices?
Smart home systems have very different components: In addition to smart home lighting, there are numerous other products and accessories that provide more convenience and security inside and outside your own four walls. These smart home devices include, for example, radiator thermostats, shutter actuators, environmental sensors and cameras.
There is now a wide variety of smart home systems with different focuses on the market. This means that every user can choose the optimum system for them. As some brands require certain accessories - such as the bridge for Philips Hue or the access point for Homematic IP - you should obtain sufficient information about your desired system in advance.
What can smart home devices do?
Smart home devices make your home intelligent and take care of various everyday tasks such as switching on the lights or turning up the heating.

Because even if you're not at home, you know that everything is fine at home after a glance at your cell phone.

About smartphones
Depending on the system, the smart home components are configured via WLAN or Bluetooth. Changes can then be made at any time using a smartphone.
About sensors
In addition to motion detectors, smart home systems use other sensors such as door contacts or environmental sensors to activate or deactivate other components.
About language
Of course, most smart home systems can be integrated into the voice control of Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple Siri.
About automation
With programmed routines, you no longer need to worry about things like turning up the heating or dimming the lights.

Special wall buttons can be assigned functions via the app. For example, lights and other devices can be operated at the touch of a button.

Many systems offer a hand-held transmitter that can be used to control central functions of the smart home system.
