Toward the end of the year, the world
wonders, “What’s next?” The
world of home automation is
no different, and manufacturers have started to give us a clue about what might
be coming to your home in 2024
At Anusha
Technovision, we look forward to what’s on the horizon for 2024, especially
in smart home automation, lighting,
and voice control. We can’t wait to share these trends with you, and we hope
you’ll call us to speed up your home to keep up with the dynamic year ahead.
Smart Mirrors:
The famous scene from the movie “Minority Report” where Tom Cruise’s
character manipulates images on a screen with his hands is now one step closer
to reality thanks to smart mirror technology. Mirrors can now display news and
weather updates, show you your social media feeds, interact with
other automation systems in your home and much more. Having that smart technology in your bathroom may
be a little disconcerting for some, but the added convenience and sheer “wow”
factor will likely persuade many people to bring these smart screens into their
homes.
MORE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
CAPABILITIES
It may
feel strange to admit, but we are firmly in the age of artificial intelligence.
AI is poised to make a big impact on the world of home automation in 2024.
One
major example of this trend is AI-enabled security devices. Security companies
are in the process of rolling out smart door cameras with machine-learning
technology. These devices will be able to identify specific faces, autonomously
determine who’s at the door and then let them inside if they recognize a
familiar person. There are also smart
sensors with advanced AI systems that can detect fires and potential
burglars as well as alert you if your carbon monoxide levels are too high
WHOLE-HOME AUTOMATION
When your whole home
automation runs as scheduled, it feels as though your entire house falls
at your feet and facilitates your most carefree lifestyle. If that didn’t feel
seamless enough, we have heard that even accessing the technology
will get progressively easier.

Scheduling: How? All signs point to further automation via programming on
devices — no touch necessary. If you want your lights to turn on and off at a
set time each day, that is a time-event. A non-scheduled event would be lights
that come on when the door to the room is opened and go off when it closes

5G Creeping In: 2024 might not unveil a fully capable 5G, which will nearly eliminate our reliance
on Wi-Fi. But 5G, projected to emerge in the next couple years, will usher in
robust, high-speed connectivity, which will enhance every area of home
automation.

Demand for
Design: We’ve also found that new tech shifts toward a more diligent focus
on design, adding more hidden speakers, architectural details, smaller (or
hidden) devices and fewer cords. The smart home integrators at Elevated
Integration care about how design and tech integrate, an area in which we’re
proud to be ahead of the curve.
