How to Build a Better Switch by Making it Smart and Superior
It seems like everything has gotten smarter, thanks to the evolution of embedded technology and the proliferation of IoT platforms. Even the humble switch is now more intelligent.Get more news about Custom Switch Box Design,you can vist our website!
Smart switches are often used as replacements for traditional built-in switches. Naturally, a user can still physically turn lights or devices on and off with a smart switch, but these switches can also be controlled by the user’s voice – via an audio assistant like Amazon’s Echo or Google Home – or with an application on a smartphone.There are several good reasons for using a smart switch. One is that a smart switch is often easier and more convenient than using a regular switch, which requires someone to find and physically flip the switch. This task becomes more difficult in the dark and within new surroundings.
Smart switches are also more flexible than a smart bulb, which is an internet-capable LED light bulb that allows lighting to be controlled and customized remotely. However, whereas a smart switch could be controlled by anyone using a voice assistance device, a smart bulb typically requires a smartphone-based application with a password. The latter would be cumbersome for babysitters and guests who visit a user’s home.Another benefit of smart switches connected to popular platforms like Echo is that switches can be grouped together to easily illuminate specific areas in a home or factory. Controlling groups of smart switches can also be handy to schedule when the lights come on and off, e.g., during a vacation away from home. Naturally, smart switches can be used in conjunction with light-dimming mechanisms and motion-detection sensors.
Depending on system requirements and operational needs, it may be better to make your own smart switch rather than buy an existing one off-the-shelf. A quick search on Google or Amazon reveals a surprising number of commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) smart switch providers. Less common are examples of how to design a smart switch to enable a better product, which is the focus of this article.
The Amazon Echo, Google Home, or similar voice assistant ecosystems enable natural language-activated, web-based queries that can be used to activate smart devices in the home, office, automobile, or almost anywhere a wireless Internet signal can reach. The voice assistant ecosystem is a voice-to-text-to-action device. For example, the Echo accepts an audio voice command from a user, records the audio, and uploads the snippet to Amazon’s cloud servers. Those servers translate the audio into text and then determine (via software tables) the best way for Alexa to respond or initiate a specific action. |
