WHAT IS A SMART HOME?
Gone are the days a smart home was only for the ultra-wealthy and tech-savvy. Smart homes are the new normal. Thanks to Control4, today, almost any device in your home that uses electricity can be operated at your command. You’re in control, whether by voice, remote control, tablet or smart-phone.
To have all the products in your home perfectly orchestrated really brings the magic of a smart home to life.
Regardless of the size, or age for that matter, of your home, Control4 delivers power and performance on one platform that coordinates the technology in your home into complete, brilliant interactions that fit your lifestyle, and are easy for the whole family to enjoy.
Imagine… with just one touch, you can stream high-resolution audio, turn up the thermostat on your heating system, lock the doors and arm your alarm. And, all of this from wherever you are – anywhere in the world – at any time.
Once you’ve experienced your smart home in action, you’ll wonder how you ever lived any other way. Does this sound beyond belief? Read on and discover how you too could be a smart home owner – it’s easier than you think.
PLATFORM
The operating system of your smart home is the Control4 platform. This dependable and resilient platform connects and manages the many devices in your home, to enable all your products to work together seamlessly, according to your personal needs and lifestyle.
NETWORKING
Dependable, seamless and secure networks are no longer a nice-to-have, but a must-have. With the rapid evolution of technology, eventually everything that operates with power will become network aware.
As it is, we’re connected everywhere we go – in the car, at home, at work, at the gym, and everywhere in between. Yet, many home networks are not ready for the expanding requirements of a smart home.
Automation Fanatix's network solutions deliver the ultimate in performance for Control4 installations.
INTERFACE
This is entirely up to you. Choose which interface best suits your lifestyle – or, choose no interface at all and use nothing more than your voice to control your home.
Whether it’s a hand-held remote for your audiovisual experience, a touch-screen to play your favourite tunes, or a keypad to dim the lights, Control4 has a range of simple interfaces, all of which are easy to navigate, and have a uniform look and feel across all devices.
MOBILE APP
Are you often away from home? So what? The Control4 Mobile App offers 4Sight, which provides secure access control for your home when you are not there, from anywhere in the world. With 4Sight, you can lock your doors, adjust the thermostat, close the garage doors, monitor your security cameras and turn off the lights using your iOS or Android mobile device, as well as your Apple watch. Remote access couldn’t be easier!
