Smart functions that protect your home:

Bonus tip for the holidays
Track personalized notifications and periodically check the status of your home from your phone or tablet. In addition, it uses VIKI to control the switching on of Christmas lights so that they are only switched on when needed, also reducing energy consumption.
This winter and all to come, protect your home and enjoy peace of mind. VIKI knows how to take care of everything!
Winter brings with it the need to maintain thermal comfort at home, but also to optimize energy consumption. VIKI, your smart home assistant, comes with functions that help you achieve exactly this balance, adapting both to your needs and to the low temperatures outside.
1. Temperature control for optimal comfort
VIKI allows you to maintain a constant and pleasant temperature in the house, intelligently adjusting the degrees according to your schedule and preferences. It can recognize the times of the day when you are home and differentiate them from those when you are away, automatically reducing energy consumption without losing comfort. For example, if you prefer a cooler room for sleep, VIKI will adjust the temperature before bed.
2. Light management in short days
As the days get shorter, natural light is more limited. VIKI takes care of the automatic management of the artificial light, turning it on or adjusting its intensity according to your needs. What’s more, you can program VIKI to turn on the lights in an efficient way, ensuring savings without sacrificing visual comfort.
3. Thermal protection by controlling the blinds
VIKI also manages the blinds in a weather-adapted way, allowing the sun to enter and heat the rooms naturally. On colder, sunnier days, raising the blinds can contribute to passive heating of the home, reducing the need for artificial heating. As the sun goes down, the blinds or roller blinds come down to better insulate the rooms.
4. Automation of household appliances for efficiency
Depending on your daily routine, VIKI can schedule appliances to work at the right times, thus avoiding unnecessary consumption. For example, you can set the washing machine to run off-peak or to turn off automatically when not needed. This reduces both the energy bill and the overall consumption, being a plus for sustainability.
5. Adaptation of the house to the lifestyle
In addition to energy efficiency, VIKI also offers you a “smart” home in the true sense of the word, automatically adapting functions to your lifestyle. You don’t have to worry about forgetting the light on or the heating being left on. VIKI learns your habits and acts for you, creating a convenient and worry-free experience.
6. Smart weather forecasting: a step forward in winter preparation
Another asset of VIKI is the smart weather warning function. The system sends you notifications at least a week before significant climate changes, such as large temperature drops, heavy rain or storms. For example, VIKI can warn you when temperatures will drop below zero degrees, suggesting you check your winter tires and prepare your irrigation system. This type of alert helps you to always be one step ahead of winter, saving time and avoiding inconvenience.
Get ready for winter with a personalized VIKI offer
If you want to know how VIKI can help you get through the cold season more easily, the price configurator here is the ideal place to start. Simple to use from your laptop or desktop, this tool offers you an offer adapted to your needs and your home, providing useful details about each function.
This winter, let VIKI take care of everything related to the comfort and energy efficiency of your home. With a set of well-thought-out smart functions, your home will always remain warm and inviting, while you save time and energy!
When it comes to smart homes, VIKI solutions are always ready to solve any challenge. A recent project really put us to the test as our client started the electrical installation without being able to modify the classic wiring. To automate the lights, we opted for radio wave control where additional cables could not be run. Everything worked fine, until the metal furniture installed at the end created a “Faraday cage”, blocking the radio signals.
With maximum creativity, our team came up with the solution of mounting signal repeaters to ensure connectivity between equipment, thus providing a perfectly functional system without compromising the design or structure of the house.
This situation shows that, regardless of the challenges, VIKI always finds the right solution to ensure the comfort and functionality of your smart home. Every detail counts and our systems are built to adapt to any situation.

Fall is the season when we transition from hot summer days to cooler, darker evenings. It’s the ideal time to implement smart automations in your home to increase your comfort, save energy and cope with temperature changes. With the help of VIKI, the smart home system that learns your habits and adapts according to them, you can benefit from a series of functions that will transform your home into a more efficient and pleasant space.
1. Automatic light adjustment for darker days
Fall brings with it shorter days and less natural light. With VIKI, you can automate the lighting in your home so that it adjusts according to the outside light level or the time of day. For example, VIKI can automatically activate the lighting at a higher intensity early in the morning, when it is still dark, and gradually reduce it during the day. It can also turn on the light in a subtle manner every evening to create a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere.
2. Intelligent temperature control for cool days
As the temperature drops, heat management becomes essential to maintaining optimal comfort in the home. VIKI can constantly monitor the outside and inside temperature and automatically adjust the heating system. For example, VIKI can set the temperature differently depending on the time of day: warmer in the morning to help you wake up comfortably, and cooler during the day when the house is empty, thus saving energy. In the evening, the temperature can rise again to ensure a warm and welcoming environment when returning home.
3. Intelligent management of blinds and curtains
In addition to temperature and light control, VIKI can manage blinds and drapes to maximize energy efficiency. By connecting to a weather station and using the geodetic coordinates of your windows, VIKI can calculate when to draw the curtains to prevent heat loss at night, or when to raise the blinds to capture more sunlight during the day. This functionality contributes to maintaining a pleasant indoor climate and reducing energy costs.
4. Programming appliances for maximum efficiency
In the cold season, many of us spend more time at home, which leads to intensive use of household appliances. VIKI offers you the possibility to schedule their use so as to save energy and money. For example, you can set the washing machine to run at times when energy is cheaper or automatically turn on the coffee machine every morning. This not only optimizes energy consumption, but also simplifies your daily routine.
5. Automation of security and comfort scenarios
During the autumn months, when the evenings are getting longer, VIKI can help create a safe and comfortable environment. For example, it can automatically activate outdoor lights when it detects motion or when it gets dark, improving your home’s security. VIKI can also simulate presence in the home when you are away by intelligently controlling lights and other devices.
The smart automations offered by VIKI bring more comfort and efficiency to your home in autumn. Whether it’s automatically adjusting the light, managing the temperature, controlling the blinds or programming the appliances, each function is designed to adapt to your needs and optimize the use of resources, making your home a smart and sustainable space.

2. Sun position detection: Using the geodetic coordinates of the windows and information from the weather station, VIKI calculates when and how much to shade the windows. This prevents heat from building up inside, thus reducing the need to use the air conditioner at full blast.
3. Adaptive daylight management: VIKI can adjust the degree of shading of Venetian blinds to allow an optimal amount of daylight while maintaining a comfortable interior temperature. This helps to reduce the use of electricity for lighting and cooling, respectively to create a pleasant indoor environment.
During the summer, efficient energy management is crucial to maintaining comfort and saving resources. VIKI offers advanced solutions for optimal use of air conditioning and shade management, ensuring a cool and energy efficient home.
