Voice Assistants: a new smart dimension to control AVE home automation

AVE DOMINA plus home automation allows you to create a smart home for every technological need and to better manage it through the main Voice Assistants.

More and more people are choosing to rely on Voice Assistants to control the functions and smart devices inserted in their homes. Today Voice assistants represent the last frontier of hi-tech living, thanks also to the integration of the same within smartphones and smart speakers. A growing trend that emphasizes the predilection and orientation towards a new smart dimension, increasingly connected to the habits of its inhabitants. Today, what are the potentials offered by these devices and how can they be exploited to the best in order to create a smart home in line with our needs?

AVE, Italian company leading the international scene of the high quality electric and electronic equipment manufacturers that is on the rise also in the home automation sector today, offered its personal answer to these questions. In fact, AVE has recently released for its DOMINA plus home automation some implementations that make it fully compatible with the most widespread Voice Assistants, both through the respective apps and smart speakers. In this way, all the functions integrated by AVE home automation system – even the most advanced ones such as the Scenarios – can be easily recalled with a tap or though voice commands interrogating the Assistants.

Thanks to the AVE Home service (via the AVE Connect App), which allows AVE home automation to interact with the IoT ecosystem that can potentially be created inside a home, you can manage every aspect of the home through the compatible voice assistants. The possibilities are endless: you can turn on the lights and adjust their intensity (through dimmer), decide to turn them on in groups or turn all off with a single command; you can adjust the temperature for each thermal zone, insert the alarm; decide to start or stop playing a song, manage ventilation, start the garden irrigation, govern the opening of electrically operated gates or doors, raise or lower the blinds, the garage door, motorized blinds and manage any other automation implemented in the DOMINA plus home automation system. To do all this it’s sufficient to “launch” simple voice commands or interact with the different functions directly from the assistant’s app.

With AVE Home, the home automation system will be controlled natively by the digital assistant, which will allow you to command other IoT devices and other functions, such as weather and traffic information, or simply recalling a “routine”, a planned sequence of actions to meet your primary daily needs. AVE Home is not only a service that integrates control through the voice, but also the management and supervision of the entire smart home. You can control a single light or those of the whole house. In the same way it’s possible to interact with smart plugs, shutters and thermostats. All this through an innovative and continuously improving digital tool.

With AVE the smart home of the future is reality. If you wish to embellish your home with an exclusive hi-tech touch, AVE DOMINA plus home automation offers sophisticated touch switches and advanced Touch Screen with interactive displays, ranging from the 4,3″ up to the 15″. Highly advanced devices that, in addition to giving a valuable impression to the home, allow it to be managed in every detail, offering quick access to the various functions via interactive menus or, on the premium versions, through a virtual “navigation” of the environments for manage the present automations.

Thanks to the new AVE Cloud app, available for Android and iOS devices, you can supervise your home exactly as if you were in front of a Touch Screen, even remotely. This app also offers an innovative feature that allows you to create scenarios using smartphone and customize them according to where you are (geo-localized scenarios). For example, when you go out, you can watch the gate that closes behind you. That’s all you have to do. Your home will do everything by itself: lowering the rolling shutters and inserting the alarm. Structured to manage multiple systems, in order to better supervise any second homes, AVE Cloud allows you to connect to your home from multiple devices simultaneously, without limits, so as to share the advantages of AVE home automation with your family. If an alarm is detected or the alarm is triggered, push notifications will be sent directly to the owner’s smartphone to offer immediate feedback on what is happening. As homonymous app, AVE proprietary cloud allows you to manage every automation and function integrated into the home automation system, even from a computer, in just a few simple clicks.

In an increasingly connected world, which sees Voice Assistants as glimpse of the modern technological possibilities, AVE offers its very personal interpretation of a smart home, a concrete, flexible proposal that can be implemented over time, designed to meet every need of comfort, safety and budget.
