The number of smart houses which work with home automation technologies is increasing thanks to all advantages they have. It has been proven what a big help domotics is for the elderly or disabled people.

One type of home automation system is called assisted domotics has a lot of advantages for people with reduced mobility when it comes to solve accessibility issues to their own homes. These technology systems and aid equipment have become a viable option for those who prefer staying at home rather than moving into sheltered housings.

In this post we would like to focus on some domotics solutions which may help people with reduced mobility.

Smart light controls

Lights control is an excellent starting point when it comes to domotics. Technology allows lighting to be controlled remotely or with an application from a smartphone. This is an excellent choice for those who suffer from mobility issues or problems to reach a switch.

Smart doors and locks

 Reaching the front door quickly may be difficult for people with reduced mobility. There are now smart locks which read digital prints. Family and friends may save their digital prints in the system to simply use the saved data to access the house.

Home safety

 Domotics can help people with reduced mobility to feel safer at home. Safety systems can be connected for a person to be aided in case of a medical emergency. By simply pressing the button on the safety system, someone will be sent to the house without needing to call emergency services.

Smart home appliances

Domotic systems allow home appliances to automatically disconnect after a certain period of time. Many common home appliances are potentially dangerous such as taps, toasters, stoves, etc., and can be connected to a home smart system.

Imagine living in a house in which lights turn on and off automatically, in which family members can freely access the house and where you never have to worry about whether you forgot to turn of the stove or not. Domotics can make your life much easier.
