The Benefits of Home Integration and Lutron’s HomeWorks

While the concept of a smart home can seem complicated when looking through the lens of technology and integration, the essence of smart home living is simplicity. It’s adjusting the climate and shades from a handheld remote while relaxing on your sectional. It’s browsing your personal music collection, selecting a playlist from a touchscreen, and hearing it stream throughout your home in stunning clarity. 

At Bethesda Systems, our integrators and AV experts can enable the control of just about every connected device in your home, creating an incredible experience. Here are some of the home automation services our clients in Great Falls, VA, enjoy.

Controlling Your Home from One Device

The home automation operating system is your smart home’s brain. It conducts and coordinates your entire automated ecosystem so that all the technology works seamlessly together. The devices used to communicate with your technological wonderland include a remote, touchscreen, mobile phone, and voice assistant. To top it off, you can manage your system from anywhere.

Audio-Video Unleashed

Creating an immersive home entertainment experience is made easy with home automation. Stream crystal-clear music and soundtracks through architectural speakers, enjoying high-resolution audio throughout your home and outdoor areas. Experience 4K and 8K high-definition video at the touch of a button on one or every TV. Press ‘Movie Night,’ and the lights dim, the shades lower, and the TV in the media room turns on.

Lighting Control

An essential feature in smart homes is the lighting system that improves the functionality, beauty, and enjoyment of your home. An elegant keypad replaces banks of switches. One tap changes every light in your home or just one fixture. 

Advanced LED systems bring natural light indoors, mimicking the changing sun’s illumination. They allow homeowners and designers to use light like paint with splashes of different colors for varying occasions. Press ‘Entertain,’ and the lights adjust to preset colors and intensities. Press ‘Good Night,’ and every light turns off.

You can also extend your lighting control system outdoors through today’s LED landscape lights. After dark, press a button, and your backyard turns into a magical oasis.

Motorized Shades

Another popular smart home system is automated window coverings. These rise and lower based on the time of day and the position of the sun. You can also press a button or state a voice command and adjust one or every shade simultaneously. These window coverings come in various styles and nearly limitless fabrics, from draperies to blinds and shades.

Security

A smart home sends you notifications, alerting you when a stranger walks onto your property, or guests arrive at your door. It turns on lights and TVs and adjusts the shades when you’re gone to deter unwanted intruders. You can monitor your home and check the security cameras from anywhere.
