Here Are Some Of Technology’s Impact On Our Homes And Lives

The continuous march of technology has had an unmistakable impact on human culture and society since the first weapons were created from raw materials and the ability to make fire was perfected. We live in a technologically advanced world. Technology has revolutionized our environment and moulded our lives into what they are now, from your car and the device you’re reading this on to your television, jet jets, and beyond.

It’s maybe not surprising, then, that shelter, one of the first technologies ever invented, is evolving right before our eyes to take advantage of the plethora of technology at hand. Whether you live in a house or an apartment, the traditional shelter is about to undergo a major transformation. What was the catalyst for that change? Smartphones, networked devices, and other technological marvels will all play a role in moulding the “smart existence” of the twenty-first century.

 


Is the Smart Home a Disappearing Concept?

More than 180 million smart home devices are expected to be on the market by 2018. The industry is expected to grow by more than 50% in the following three years. If your smart home isn’t yet completely functional, it will be before you know it. Much of this is due to the “Internet of Things,” which is a growing trend in which all gadgets, not just phones and computers, are connected.

But, first and foremost, what is the purpose of having a smart home? Because, in a variety of ways, linked devices outperform traditional solutions. They provide homeowners and apartment residents more control over their homes, increase security, provide conveniences and luxuries, and enable them to be more environmentally responsible. Consider linked devices to be digital butlers or maids who perform your work for you rather than you having to do it yourself.

Smart devices come in a wide range of sizes and shapes, and if recent introductions like the Keecker are any indicator, these sizes and shapes will continue to grow in the future. Even a smart thermostat, like the Nest model, has the ability to learn. The advantages of such a gadget are self-evident: perfect temperatures with the least amount of work and energy. Google, a pioneer in the smart home revolution, appears to agree, having just paid $3.2 billion for Nest.


What Does a Smart Home Mean to You? – An Entire New Lifestyle

There’s little doubt that technology in the home is here to stay, with established, trustworthy firms like Google and Samsung at the forefront of the “smart home” movement. But what does the new smart home portend for society as a whole? When you consider the rise of smart home technology, the availability of smartphones and other gadgets, and the expanding Internet of Things movement, it’s tough not to infer that society is moving away from smart devices and toward smart lives. It’s not hard to figure out why. Aside from that, technologies like air filters help to keep the home atmosphere clean and fresh.

A smart life promises to be more relaxing, stress-free, connected, and possibly more fulfilling. Of course, the Luddites and traditionalists among us would claim (maybe not without reason) that our over-dependence on technological devices such as smartphones has rendered us unable to interact with the actual world. Even when we’re in the same room as the people we care about, we’re engrossed on our phones. To some extent, this may be true. Finally, no one can deny that technology is here to stay and will continue to have a significant impact on our lives. Hopefully, it will be for the better.

 

Air purifiers that may be carried with you

There are many different styles to choose from. To extract particles, basic mechanical models use a fan to force air through a filter. Higher-grade HEPA filters can capture even the tiniest particles including dust, smoke, pollen, and pet dander.

Electronic air purifiers function by generating an electric charge that attracts particles to the metal plates of the machine, which can then be wiped clean. Other models have a UV light and claim to remove mould and germs, but Santanachote adds that Consumer Reports has not tested these and that there is currently no proof that they do so.

An activated carbon filter is used in some purifiers to absorb odours and/or eliminate gases. Carbon filters are more effective when they are thicker and heavier, but they are also more expensive. Thin mesh ones, according to Santanachote, are a waste of resources.

At least $200 will buy you a portable device. Models that purify vast spaces and are well rated will cost up to $700. New filters can cost anywhere from $20 to $200 (some models have washable filters), and you’ll need to account for power because purifiers should be used 24 hours a day, seven days a week, according to experts.
