The easier, the better

viki clima incalzire

We all agree that the house automation systems can bring to our homes benefits regarding our comfort and security, but there are few aspects that one has to question before acquiring such a product. We might call them problems of the home automation industry, but here’s VIKI and it might be the solution.

1. Most home automation systems are designed for houses under construction.

That is not the case for VIKI, which works  both on wired and wireless technology. The  system can be  installed without major changes in any building, be it an already furnished apartment or a house under construction.

2. Changing  the default user’s settings and preferences, always require resorting to the specialists who installed the automation system.

Most automation solutions are  being configured when installed with the preferences in terms of lighting, climate or irrigation  that the users have at the moment. But what if this preferences change over time? Normally one has  to appeal to those who have installed the solution, wait for  their intervention and most likely pay an extra cost for this service.

VIKI is a proactive solution that adapts to the behavior of the house inhabitants and change with it. All you have to do is give it a few days to memorize the settings you do manually,  and after that it will automatically learn what should do. If  you prefer after a while  a different temperature, or diverse music in different rooms, you can set it by yourself and the solution will learn it.

3. Too many different automation applications or too many remote controls.

Even if you already own  certain automation systems for automating gates, blinds, or even mobile applications that control heating and lighting, the goal of an intelligent and effective home control is a unique application from which you can control your entire house.

VIKI aims to be the brain of your home, offering not only the intelligent control functions, but due to the adaptative algorithms it generates savings on electricity and heat and the comfort and pleasure to stay at home, all in one single application.

If we talk about intelligent confort, we talk about VIKI

viki control multimedia

Although more and more intelligent devices make their appearance in our homes in order to improve our lifestyle, there is always a risk that the whole process of automating our homes, becomes to demanding for the user. The reason? Too many devices and apps  lacking a common language that can create a really smart and interconnected environment.

rsz_multiThis is the problem for which VIKI is the solution. An intelligent system able to integrate different automation systems and various technologies into a single solution with multiple automation functionalities, all in a single interface.

Relying on comfort and simplicity, VIKI will integrate and automate all smart electronic devices in the house giving users precise control over the home’s environment. Convenience, comfort and security are essential things for anyone and  VIKI’s main objectives.

Lighting, climate, security and multimedia, are all functionalities that can be controlled from your mobile phone, whether you’re home, office or maybe thousands of kilometers away. More than that, VIKI is not only a system that is configured when it is installed and after that the same settings are applied, VIKI is a system that will learn and adapt all the time. If your habits and configuration changes so does the smart house.

Beyond the technical aspects of the solution, the single most important benefit is the safety that comes from  the full control you have on your house and “peace of mind ” it brings.

When life is better than the movie

viki video control

It is said that if you can imagine it, you can achive it. Movies are inspired by the real life not vice versa and we can prove it: VIKI

How many times have you imagined the lights in house wenting on at the clapping of your hands. Well, with VIKI, there’s no need to clap your hands anymore, is enought to move from one room to the other. But where do these ideas of a smart home come?

You do not have to be a fan of science fiction literature, because the film industry is doing its job brilliantly when it comes to this. And if we go back to the initial statement if someone could imagine a solution for the house that can make certain tasks by itself,  why wouldn’t that be real.VIKI Video Control

V.I.K.I, to some it may sound familiar, someothers may even know where it comes from, but for the rest, we have to say that the name is the acronym of Virtual Interactive Kinetic Intelligence, and yes is the name of a character, actually an intelligent robot from a movie. The movie character was saving the mankind, our VIKI is saving time and energy.

What VIKI knows more you will find out by following us on the way to launch this project.

Home sweet automated home!

viki monitorizare geam

What does your dream house look like? Certainly at least once you’ve imagined how big it should be, the design that you want to adopt, and how will you customize your personal corner. But have you thought about home automation?

Safety, comfort and more time for your little pleasures are just three of the reasons why you should choose a home automation solution.  Energy efficiency and automation of all the intelligent electronic devices directly from the control panel support those mentioned above and the picture is complete after we add the artificial intelligence.

Home is where you should feel most safe, so with permanent video monitoring, motion sensors and VIKI which warns you when you forget any window or door opened, this is possible.window And if we talk about vacations, your home is on “good hands”.  The flowers will get light and water on time, and the air conditioning will not work more than it should, all under the supervision of VIKI.

About the confort such a solution offers you, would be much to say, but perhaps the most important is that after a long day when you return home, the room temperature is right, the blinds are drawn, the music is playing softly and the lights are dimmed. You just need to add a cup of hot tea or a glass of wine and relax.

As important as those mentioned above, energy efficiency is another solid reason for you to choose an automation system, with no lights or other multimedia devices forgotten on and effective communication between all connected devices even when not at home.

Whether it’s about an apartment or a house do not forget to include in your plans a system for smart homes, because the future is now!

Apparently, appearances do matter!

viki mod afisare 1

White or Dark? City or Nature? If you have no idea what we are talking about,  let us introduce you little by little  into VIKI’s world.

12:38 PM,  a sunny day with plenty of light flooding the house. It’s lunch time, and some music will go just fine. VIKI displays a screen in light tones. Some time later, with the night falling over the city, the office lights went on, sign that is time to hit send for that last email, and to take a relaxing break before dinner, while watching the news. But something is changed in VIKI’s display mode! The screen is darker, which makes it easy to be read. That’s because VIKI knows that evening came and it’s time to change the theme from Light to Dark. Nice job VIKI!

But maybe outside it’s a gloomy day, and all we want is to leave behind all the tasks of the day, and to go somewhere into the nature. How not always possible, we can at least select a Skin, according to our mood. Nature, it is!

As you can see from these shown above, VIKI display mode can be customized according to your preferences, but VIKI also knows and identify whether it’s day or night, without any additional command adopting thus the most appropriate display theme.
