Be IoT Smart this Holiday Season
Most of us are looking for ways to make the most of our time with our loved ones during this holiday season.
With Internet of Things (IoT) devices, more opportunities will help you streamline and enhance your holiday experience. So you can concentrate on enjoying time with friends and family rather than stressing about the logistics of the holiday season.
In today’s exclusive AITechPark newsletter, we will cover some practical tips and exciting IoT use cases from smart lighting and home security systems to food preparation and gift wrap stations for the holiday season.
Festive Lights and IoT
One of the most popular holiday IoT use cases is a smart lighting system that aids in creating a festive atmosphere. By adding smart lighting, you can program your lights and turn them on and off at specific times, change colors, and pulse your favorite music. Apart from creating a warm and cozy atmosphere inside the home, these smart lights also save energy and money by automatically turning off lights when they are not needed or used.
Virtual Gathering Space
The concept of family gathering also evolves with technology. With video conferencing platforms such as Cisco Webex, Google Meets, and Zoom, you can create a living room and host virtual Christmas parties and New Year countdowns. These digital platforms break geographical barriers, letting loved ones from around the world share moments of joy.
Smart Home Security
The holiday season often means intensive traveling, leaving homes vulnerable; therefore, smart home security systems such as SimpliSafe, Cove, and Vivint offer you peace of mind. With features such as smart locks, surveillance cameras, and alarm systems, you can monitor your home remotely. These smart home security systems automate your presence at home, prevent potential intruders, and keep your residence safe.
Smart Kitchen Gadgets
Cooking during the holiday season can be overwhelming, but it can be easy with smart kitchen gadgets such as slow cookers, instant pots, and ovens. These IoT devices allow you to control your cooking process remotely and ensure that you are spending less time in the kitchen and more with loved ones.
The holiday season is a good time to celebrate, connect, and create more memories with your loved ones. With the help of IoT devices, you can make the most of this special time of the year.
