A shorter URL for the above link: . http://tinyurl.com/3eaqaap . .With the increasing popularity of smart phones and other internet enabled devices, homeowners can now monitor and control alarms, lighting, temperature control, and irrigation systems when away from home for extended periods of time. Gates and locks can be opened remotely to let in home maintenance or yard crews, and security systems can be monitored from around the world with an internet connection.
.Two hobbies that many people enjoy are traveling and gardening. Unfortunately, these are not always compatible hobbies, and the best of remotely operated irrigation systems cannot be of assistance if the operator is camped in the wilderness without access to the internet. A truly smart home should be able to make decisions without input from the homeowner, by taking sensor data outputs and using those outputs to make decisions about controls.
.One example of a system that should appeal to absent gardeners is the Weatherhawk weather station, a system that measures temperature, rainfall, humidity, wind speed, and other weather parameters. The data are relayed to a computer or control system via either a wireless or an RS-232 protocol.
