Apple iWatch is actually a home automation play, not a smartphone companion




Samsung’s Galaxy Gear smartwatch launched a couple of weeks ago as a fat, ugly, and expensive smartphone accessory. That’s not where Apple is going with iWatch.

Rather, Apple is looking to create a device that will allow you to control your music, your temperature, your security, your lighting, your energy use, your entertainment, and potentially much more, says Cantor Fitzgerald’s Brian White, the analyst who talked to Taiwanese and mainland China suppliers.

“As an Apple supplier, our contact offered insight into the “iWatch” and described this potential new device as much more than an extension of your iPhone but as a multi-purpose gateway in allowing consumers to control their home (i.e., heating/cooling, lights, audio, video, etc.),” White said today in a research note.

Apple iWatch’s home automation will require cooperation with current smart home manufactures who support IOS system. And Wulian smart home has been ready for this by an IOS-support system with easy installation and stable network. For users who have already applied Wulian’s smart home devices to their home, now an extremely cool new way to control all home automation devices will be added in. And for those who want to realize a smart home in future via iWatch, Wulian provides the most comprehensive products for choice. Either a complete automation system or a just favored aspect in household life is available for user to bring into home.

The raison d’etre behind smartwatches is that personal fitness tracking and monitoring is a no-brainer, and adding home automation control makes it even more interesting. And now that is realy getting interesting. Thing about it: with iWatch and Wulian smart home, people can pack the home into a watch and bring it around wrist everywhere they go.

Will it be historical event like the launch of iPhone that tremendously changes people’s notion about technology as well as their daily life? Guess we’ll see soon.
