A company named Savant is leading the way into the future with their new line of Apple based home automation products. From changing temperature, opening the blinds and turning on the TV to HDMI switches and bathrooms that will read RSS feeds to you while you shower, they can do it all. Savant uses On-Screen Display (OSD) control and automation technology to customize your iPad, iPhone, and even your HD TV into a user friendly control panel with the help of a backbone ran through one or more MAC minis. Through the use of their app from the Apple Appstore, you can see a picture of your living room and touch a lamp to turn it on. Not only that, you can press and hold your finger over the lamp to open up a diming switch. Yes I said a diming switch! You can lower the amount of light in your living room by pressing on a virtual lamp from your Apple device. Check out this video to help give you a taste of this absolutely amazing technology!
Here is my question: How much longer before your stove has an RJ-45 connection coming out of the back of it?? You’re on the way home from work and you're running late. You need to have dinner ready by a certain time because you are having important guest over. Well if you could preheat the stove from your iPhone you could most definitely save yourself some time. Next could be the dishwasher or maybe the washing machine...who knows where this technology could lead us into the future?!?
