Challenge
To build a mobile application along with web dashboard and all integrations for a Smart House Solution.
Business Need
Improve customer experience and keep up to date with newest technology solutions for Smart House.
Create the simplest, most natural, and accessible way to control the world around.
Allow to control a wide variety of Smart House functions using quick and simple gestures instead of using voice control or smart buttons.
Solution
I came up with the proof of technology for a Smart House Solution. It's an interactive mobile application with web dashboard for detailed device configurations which integrates with variety of physical devices and ensures instant performance of all Smart House functions.
The mobile application allows to control every Smart House function like: turn lights on/off, activate security alarm, find lost phone, set mood with gesture,control climate with tap, know if a door is knocked, tap favorite tunes, brew coffee from bed, set or snooze alarm etc. From the web dashboard - management panel - it's easy to view list of all devices connected, integrations, gestures, firmwares, etc. Also our team made integrations with different external devices like Philips Hue lights, LIFX, Uber, IFTTT, call my phone etc. to make the system work.
A user just need to tap simple gestures on a device-enabled surface to automate all kinds of useful actions.
