Several "smart" devices that are worth paying attention





Habré frequently write about "smart" devices that facilitate our lives. Some gadgets are often mentioned, the other - at least, on the third reason, do not write.

I propose to evaluate three different smart-device, which is really worth paying attention to.

«Smart» Outlet Zuli Smartplugs h4>
 

Not so long ago, the project received support Zuli Smartplugs on Kickstarter, becoming the usual idea of ​​a real device. As stated in the title, Zuli Smartplugs - it's smart socket that allows you to efficiently manage power consumption in the home.

Himself gadget inserted into standard electrical outlet, and only in him, in Zuli Smartplugs, you need to connect all your home appliances and electronics.

The device does not have its own display all the information it sends to the user's smartphone. Since the smartphone can also control all the outlets in the house, driving, including lighting.

When installing three or more outlets of this type, they are combined into a network, and start to track the movement of people at an apartment / house to further capture the world, realizing a predetermined pattern of behavior.

For example, a person not in the room, then turn off all the sockets (or part of) the technique is muted lighting. Man entered the bedroom - included nochnichki and television.

The price of such a device - $ 50 , if ordered from the manufacturer, or 3000 rubles in the CIS. All this while - pre-order, customers will start receiving electronic gadgets around July when shipped the first batch.



If you do not like the fact that the connectors - not the national sample, you can use other similar gadget, Smart home Belkin WeMo Switch


Besides all of the above functions, the application for this device can work with social networks. WeMo can interact with applications and social media in the network, using a service called IFTTT. For example, you receive a text message (SMS) or e-mail notification when you open the front door.

To create behaviors sufficiently device and one gadget, rather than three, as in the case Zuli Smartplugs.

Price - $ 50 from the manufacturer or 3990 rubles CIS.

Withings Smart Baby Monitor h4>
 

Habré enough people who have children. At any age child needs attention, but most require attention young children. They can not permanently leave themselves in the room with the child must maintain a certain humidity, you need to know when the child is dissatisfied with something.

In general, it has long been established various kinds of radio / baby monitors, humidity sensors and all.

Two years ago there was a system that could be called a universal monitoring system for the child. This audio / video surveillance, humidity meter, temperature sensor, and also nochnichok player that can play lullabies pleasant to the ear.

All this is called Withings Smart Baby Monitor. The system works in tandem with a smartphone, so you need to notice you never miss.



The device sends messages at the cry of the child (and it reacts to noises, but you can set a threshold volume), with changes in temperature, humidity, and other similar events. The device is equipped with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules, so that compatibility with modern smartphones total. There is even an Ethernet-connector, for connecting device in the local network.



Needless to say, this inexpensive system will not name, but the price is not exorbitant (who has seen the price of baby monitors, I think, would agree). Price - 11800 rubles .

«Smart» Doorbell SkyBell (iDoorCam) h4>
 

A very interesting gadget that combines a conventional doorbell and video surveillance systems.

The call is connected to the same wire, which is fed from your previous doorbell, so that the cells or batteries are not needed. However, for the correct operation of the device requires a WiFi network to which the device is connected and when it is first run.

To call has its own application that is installed on the phone and / or tablet. If someone calls at your door, it comes to a mobile device notification.



You can answer with the tablet, and you'll see someone with whom to communicate, but he / she is you - no, of course. In the dark / night all will be seen through night vision systems.

Well, among other things, the transmitted signal is encrypted, so that homegrown hackers who live in the neighborhood, will not be able to intercept unencrypted data.

Inter alia, and can be notified through 3G, 4G and LTE, for example, while at work.



Price devaysa - 6990 rubles , so it pays to think about how to protect / mask Up that it is not stolen :) Mount, however, strong enough, so do not take off your hands.
