Control all your smart home devices with this one-stop solution by Daikin
The rapid development of technology and the demand for better lives have given rise to smart home devices that can now be found in almost every household. From biometric door locks that do not require keys to automated curtains and lighting to voice-activated entertainment systems, we are spoilt for choice today when it comes to making our home life seamlessly convenient.
Having to individually program all your smart home devices, however, can at times be quite a chore — and this is where Daikin’s Reiri for Home Hub comes to the rescue. Compatible with most smart home solutions available in the market today, this powerful and versatile system is a one-stop solution to all your smart home programming needs.
What Reiri supports
The Reiri for Home Hub device functions as a master control for most Internet of Thing (IoT) devices, allowing you to control their operations using your mobile phone. These devices do not necessarily need to be from Daikin.
Here are the smart home devices that can be controlled using Reiri for Home Hub:
- Air conditioning
Besides allowing you to control your air conditioner remotely, Reiri also provides an intelligent diagnosis about its performance and will issue an alert if there is a malfunction.
- Air purifier
Reiri will send a notification to your phone if your smart air purifier detects that the air quality at home has dropped. This means you can switch the device on at the earliest possible time to purify the air before you reach home.
- Reiri Indoor Air Quality Sensor
Particular about particulate? This high-tech sensor monitors the concentration of PM2.5, carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds in the air. Get an overview on your phone using Reiri.
- Home Management System
Connect your smart home energy meter to Reiri and monitor your electricity consumption in real time using your phone.
- Smart Plug-in Switch
Need to get the kettle boiling before you get home? Use Reiri to switch on the smart plug-in switch connected to the kettle.
- Smart digital lock
With Reiri, you can let a guest enter your home by remotely unlocking your smart digital lock using your phone.
- Surveillance camera
Missing a parcel? Use Reiri to access your surveillance camera and check if the delivery was in fact made.
- Smoke detector
Reiri will send you an alert if your smart smoke detector goes off, allowing to make a timely intervention.
- Door & window / motion sensors
Upgrade your home security with door, window or motion sensors that are connected to Reiri. The system will send you a notification if the doors or windows are opened or closed, or if motion is detected. A motion sensor would be especially useful for monitoring elderly people who live alone.
- Home voice assistant
If you already have a home voice assistant like Alexa or Goole Home installed, you can now speak into your phone to activate various functions thanks to Reiri.
- Video doorbell & audio intercom system
With Reiri, you no longer need to be in front of the intercom system to speak to visitors. Reiri also allows you to customise the chime of your smart door bell.
- Motorised curtains
Why get off the bed to draw the curtains when you can do so using Reiri?
- Smart Lighting
Adjust the brightness of your lights or turn them On or Off with just a few touches on your smart phone.
The benefits of being smart
Besides the obvious benefit of getting to control all your smart devices using one platform, getting a Reiri for Home Hub also makes it easier for you to reduce energy usage and enjoy cost savings by micromanaging the operations of appliances that typically require lots of energy.
With the market size of the global smart home industry expected to grow to a whopping US$495.6 billion by 2030, it is safe to say that more and more innovations will pop up in the years to come. These innovations, according to experts, will raise the levels of convenience, energy efficiency and security even further and vastly improve our lives.
What can we expect in the future? Touchless technology, for one, might become more prevalent. Fancy drawing your curtains with a voice command or switching on the television with a wave? This could very well be a reality in the coming years.
Further integration of smart devices can also be expected. Imagine this: the heat in your home is rising and your home management system automatically activates your air conditioning and ‘commands’ your window blinds to be drawn to minimise the amount of sunlight and heat entering the room. Your refrigerator might even send you a message asking if you’d like to begin thawing that piece of steak you plan to have for dinner.
It’s time to get excited. Life can only get better.
