Top Audio-Video Automation Ideas to Integrate Into Your Home
Willing to convert your general home into a smart home with connected technology? With advanced automation ideas, there are endless possibilities to make your home interesting and modern. Try integrating audio and video automation and enjoy music anywhere in your house without having to go through the trouble of connecting multiple devices, and changing the songs time and again. Here are some of the best ideas to try out in your home.
Streaming Music in Every Room
Let your favorite tune follow you wherever you go with music automation. Just think how cool would it be to have a keypad in every room that allows selecting your favorite playlist or setting the volume or turn on/off specific speakers. Whether your room has an in-ceiling speaker or a big loudspeaker, having a smart home installer will allow you to sync everything into one single easy-to-use music control system. Install a multiroom audio system and control your tunes wherever you go from one single panel. You can also set your music system to not just turn on automatically when you enter the room but also turn off automatically after you leave the room.
Sing in the Shower
Audio automation covers multiple rooms in the house. So, why leave your bathroom out from your home automation? Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the music starts automatically when you turn on the shower? Visualize having a long soothing bath with soothing music without having to touch the phone with wet hands. Music automation can make that happen. Kickstart your day with your favorite music in your bathroom.
Extend Your Audio Outdoors
Music doesn’t have to stay indoors. Your smart home solutions can extend outdoors as well. Say, for example, you want to have a party in your front yard. The music system can be synced with the outdoor speakers and can be controlled with the same panel that controls home audio. Your audio control system will have an outdoor audio option, and choosing it will play the same audio that is played indoors. Say for example you are listening to a podcast indoors and you go outdoors to receive a parcel to clean the corridor, you will not miss a single word whether you go indoors or outdoors.
Single Media Server
Manage multiple music platforms from one single system. You can play your preferred music from Spotify, Youtube, Apple Music, Amazon Music, radio, CD player, or even record player, everything can be managed and controlled through a smart system interface. It allows playing high-resolution video or audio across your house with a single music server.
Automating Playlists
The workout playlist will be different from the cooking playlist. You might not enjoy the workout songs when you are enjoying evening tea in the garden. What if your home automation solution knows you are working out and plays the relevant playlist? When you switch on gym lights, workout songs will start playing, and when you switch on the shower lights, bathroom songs will start playing. This can really happen with automatic multimedia control. Settings can be made differently for every room including lighting control and shades automation for proper atmosphere.
Multizone Audio Control
If you are residing in a two or three-floored house, you might consider integrating a multizone audio control system. This way similar audio will play on the chosen floor. If you are working on the 2nd floor and choose a playlist, it will be played in all the rooms on the second floor.
Multiple Devices: One Remote
One remote for the TV, one remote for the speakers, one remote for the projectors, and one remote for the home theater system, this is too much, isn’t it? Free yourself from the hassle of managing multiple remotes with multimedia automation. Even when one of the remotes goes missing, select and tap on the missing one, and a beeping sound will play from the remote.
Home Theater Automation
Want to have a cinematic experience at your home theater? Go for audio and video automation and adjust the lights, speakers, and shades automatically to create a theater-like experience in your home. When you hit on the play button, the lights will dim automatically and the curtains will also close automatically, creating a home theater-like experience. Similarly, when you hit the pause button during an ongoing movie, the lights will automatically increase to 20% to 30% so your eyes to adjust to the lights and not go blind with sudden exposure. This will continue until you press the play button again.
Parental Control Over TV
Do you have media addict kids in your home? Is it difficult to keep a track of their screen time? Home automation solutions can help you have parental control over TV and video games. You can keep an eye on how kids use technology. You can set the TV and video games to turn off at a specific time every day. Parents can also set a limit on volume to stop their kids from getting addicted to loud volume.
Sync Music Instruments
Smart home automation systems enable adding innovation to the musical instruments in your home. Connect your home theater system, in-wall speakers, or any other musical instruments, and listen to that in your entire house. Once the act on the instrument is completed, the system will automatically connect to other music apps that you are listening to like Spotify, and play the tunes accordingly.
Hide Away
Do you like your house with minimal things? Play peek-a-boo with your devices with home automation. With a voice command or a tap on the remote, your TV, projector, or any other screen you desire will hide away into the wall or floor. You will feel like it was never there.
CCTV View in the Middle of a Movie
