Designing Flexible Smart Home Solutions

With mobile emerging at the center of every innovation, there is an increasing demand for technology and solutions that enable smarter living. Consumers need a smart environment that is not only intelligent but is also energy efficient, thus reducing carbon emission footprint and increasing cost savings. In the past decade, there has been a proliferation of smart home automation solutions which enable users to remotely control various aspects in a home such as lighting, thermostat, heating, air and conditioning, while providing increased surveillance on the palm top and enabling smart energy management.

Often such solutions are faced with interoperability challenges while controlling a variety of edge devices based on different protocols. They also require having multiple bridges and applications for each device.

Sasken rated in the Leadership Zone by Zinnov - Zinnov Zones 2016 - Product Engineering Services Sasken’s addresses these pain points in its voice-enabled multi-framework home gateway solution which is capable Why Sasken of controlling interoperability of edge devices. Some of the features include safety/security, utilities management Support of multi-frameworks Smartphone application like water leakage, smart appliances control, smart entertainment, and vehicle connectivity.
