2011 Trends in Home Automation

Home automation is an increasingly popular feature of many luxury homes today. Home automation can include many things from heating and air, lighting, security, television, home theater, and much more. Connectedhometechnology.com discusses trends in home automation for 2011 in an article ."Home Technology Trends for 2011" Read on for this year's home automation trends to implement in your Broken Arrow, OK. home.

Technology trends in the home for 2011:

3D and web enabled television sales will increase with the introduction of 3D programming

Current initiatives are being set up by the government to ensure newly built and renovated homes will have a 6 star rating from May 2011, which will mean there will be an even greater focus on home based technology systems that can save on power and water usage. Urban Intelligence has already received a lot of interest at the moment, because people want to save on their energy bills and are mindful of their carbon footprint.

There will be further integration of the iPad and smart phones in home technology systems. Users of iPads and smart phones will have the ability to control lighting, AV equipment and other features in the home all via touch-screen technology, which are user-friendly and less bulky than earlier models.

Further development and upgrades of security in the home. For example, biometric fingerprint technology and surveillance systems.

More people will be looking to ‘future proof’ their homes, by upgrading wiring and cabling systems to ensure their homes are ready to accommodate advancements in technology. For example, with the national plans to roll out broadband and connect internet to our homes via fiber optic cables, homes will need to be equipped to facilitate this development.
