  • In this episode I’m looking at smart home technology. From remote controls to the Clapper, we’ll find out where it began and where it’s headed. I’m also joined by none other than Bill Gates about how climate change and optimizing energy usage play a part in revolutionizing our homes.

I can also turn on any song on the internet using my voice, skip songs while I'm in the shower, change the volume etc without touching anything. My lights actually are programmed to turn off and on at different times and when my phone is at different locations so I don't even need to use my voice most the time. Also thermostats are smart now so they can be handled with just your voice or location. Some TVs can be used with a voice assistant. Blinds can be rolled up or down with your voice. You can basically control anything you'd have your butler control for you with smart technology these days.

      @@Joseph-C I worked for a company that implemented all sorts of home automation solutions so I'm quite familiar with this tech. Most of it are just novelties at best.
      For an average home it boils down to colorful lights, a thermostat and maybe an AC. Sure it's cool when you can turn on the lights with your voice... when and if it works. Alexa, Siri, Android... I got fed up with all of them. In most cases it was faster and easier to flip a switch. Not to mentions that it's always listening somewhere in the background.
      I really don't see much added value for an average home besides the 'wow' factor that fades away after a few weeks.

    In 2000 my dad had a phone modem on a windows machine that ran one of the first home assistants called HAL which would use RF to trigger x10 home relays to comtrol lights, garage doors, and even the sprinkler system. The way to use the voice assistant was to pick up the home phone or call the home number and type in a number code to access the computer options. It would even control the cable using programmed rs232 to infrared.

    @marques some of the original remote controls for televisions used high frequency soundwaves to control the TV vs the more modern infrared and then radio waves. I remember when my brother and I figured that lifting and dropping a chain would sometimes inadvertently make the high frequency sound that would change the channel. I'm a Gen X guy and technologist and grew up with all this first level innovation and now have an extremely smart rigged home. Love this retro tech series. There are some great infographics out there that show how science fiction ideation ended up inspiring inventors to build everything they imagined.

    IoT: Smart-outlets are great if you forget to turn off appliances, fans, etc.. I like that it reboots my internet modem daily in the middle of the night. Smart-lights are useful for lighting the home to make it look occupied and just remote control from across the room. Precautions: I never use smart devices that are cameras. I put them on their own separate network. Another thing is to put them behind a firewall.

    Really entertaining video, thanks!! Another reason why some of this older tech is still relevant today is that it isn't connected to the internet. With an X10 system like HomeMinder or Powerhouse you can remotely control almost every device in your house, including light switches and power outlets, and even change the temperature (similar to the Nest thermostat), all individually scheduled per day of the week/month. If you were away from home you could call your house and control your lights/stereo/furnace remotely. For people who aren't interested in the "internet of things," or who are leery of things like Alexa, this technology is still relevant and useful today.
