Home automation:The Future of Home Automation


All of a sudden, as if someone ­flipped a switch, experts outside the custom electronics industry are paying attention to home automation. Overall, it’s a good thing. And with this increased attention and scrutiny also come more research and analysis, which appear to be predicting that the industry is rapidly evolving into three distinct niches: DIY, entry-level and high-end luxury - but there is no mention of a “middle market.”
Here’s how it breaks down from different sources. First, there has been glowing data and financial analysis coming fast and furious from the investment community. Industry watchers are falling all over themselves to predict solid growth for the industry. Terms like “explode” and “capital-efficient” and “rising category awareness” are all being used by in­fluential investment groups.
There is a research that shows how home automation, much like the U.S., is becoming a market of “haves” and “have-nots.” A recent report from GigaOm breaks the market down into those three distinct segments: DIY, custom-design smart home systems (from providers like cable, telco and entry-level security companies), and connected home systems (served by CE pros). The report estimates that by 2017:
·             The DIY home automation market will be $200 million
·             The telco/cable/security portion of the home automation market will reach $2.2 billion (growing 7 percent annually)
·             The connected home portion of the market will reach $1.5 billion, up from $300 million in 2013
If you do the math, it means the custom channel is expected to grow by an incredible 500 percent in the next four years. And while the custom market is expected to be surpassed by the entry-level options in terms of total revenue, it also shows that the custom installation channel will be 750 percent larger than the DIY market. The report cites the growing demand for luxury systems, increasing consumer awareness being driven by the mass marketers, cloud technology that is making home automation more affordable, and open API platforms from companies as the primary drivers of growth.
If anything, the report is interesting because it clearly pinpoints where the future lies for the market (both from high-end and low-end professionally installed systems). Unfortunately, that prediction means integrators “in the middle” serving those $7,500 to $12,000 projects are not in the sweet spot for growth. The data also helps CE pros gauge where their future competition is going to come from - not from homeowners themselves but from mega-companies entering the space on the low-end.

Wulian smart irrigation: just like Nest for the garden


It’s starting to feel like the Internet of Things (IoT) train is finally leaving the station, as more and more household appliances become Internet-connected with a smartphone app providing the User Interface/remote controller.

Taking cues from the same IoT playbook is Wulian Smart Home with its “cloud smart irrigation”. It’s set out to bring the garden sprinkler kicking and screaming into the Internet age, replacing what is either a “dumb” device or one that, whilst Internet-connected, is crippled by a clunky User Experience.

Current irrigation controllers are outdated, extremely unintuitive and frustrating to use. Wulian’s irrigation system is connected to weather data, so when it rains the controller will stop watering without a manual shut-off. And when you have a sunnier day than expected, the controller will automatically water plants according to soil’s humidity without being turn on by people”.

Apart from toilsome manual operation, traditional irrigation also brings too much water wastage in the process. And in turn, unnecessary expense. To solve this problem, Wulian smart irrigation, via its cloud-connectivity, is powered by location-based weather data. In addition, and taking a page straight out of Nest’s book, it’s self-learning, resulting in a claimed “up to 50%” reduction in water consumption.

Since the advent of the smartphone, home automation technology is booming indoors and accessible to the masses. The same need for automation exists in the yard. Therefore, Wulian develops a simple App supporting both IOS and Android to realize a remote control and scheduling. It also learns and improves over time, conserves water, saves money.

Home automation: Turning On to Lighting with Wulian Smart Home


It’s no secret that lighting sets the mood. But when it’s your business to sell those moods, lighting becomes all-important, down to the tiniest detail. It’s about layering correctly. A shade too dim could mute the ambience. A shade too bright can break it.
Automated lighting gives me more flexibility,” Sarah, an interior designer says. “It shows off what I do better. I put together colors and furniture and fabrics and lighting, and now I have more control over the outcome of how everything works together. I’ve often told clients we can spend a lot of money on interiors, but if we don’t have the lighting right we’ve shortchanged ourselves. Lighting is as important, if not more important, than what we are lighting.”
Getting the lighting just right is so much easier with Wulian Smart Home. It enables end users to set lighting scenes completely according to their own needs. For example, instead of trying to set each individual light to an appropriate level each time, it’s easy to set all the lights to the correct level with a single press of a lighting scene button. “We have 135 lights in our house,” One of Wulian smart home adoptor Alex says. “Before, I couldn’t remember what switches turned on which lights. Now, with the lighting scenes, life is so much easier.”
