Linus Tech tips coverage of ctia 2014 is brought to you by
AT&T all right guys welcome to the AT&T Booth where we are currently checking
out AT&T Digital Life the idea behind Digital Life is home automation and home
security so essentially you you should be able to alarm your house remotely
away from home so say you leave home you can alarm your house from the car make
sure all the lights are turned off and all the doors are locked then you come
home the home should know that you just arrived in your connected car it should
disarm the house unlock all the doors open the garage door for you maybe start
playing some music Turn The Lights On start coffee depending on what time it
is that you come home all those kind of small mundane tasks that you
realistically shouldn't have to do yourself in the connected future another
kind of cool example that I personally appreciate is the master bedroom private
time mode where if you close the door on the master bedroom this is of course programmed by yourself in their app if
you close the door in the master bedroom it will then automatically lock that
door it'll automatically alarm the house maybe turn the lights off in the house
uh start playing some nice smooth sensual Chaz music and maybe dim the
lights above the bed so you can have some cool little adult time with your
significant other other things that it can do is say sense a water leak under
your sink so if you and your significant other are away at work and maybe the kids are at school or something like
that and there's a leak under your tap it can detect that and turn the top off
with a valve cool functionality and they have everything ranging from touch
sensors to camera motion sensors and everything like that available in their
app so you can set up run programs so you can say run that master bedroom
program I was just talking about remotely from anywhere or just
automatically through the room and you can kind of monitor different rooms so
if you have a camera that watches say the patio you could set up the patio as
a room and you could have different you could see all the different sensors that
are in the patio the camera that's on the patio all of that in a customizable
dashboard within their app very cool functionality to talk about how the
connected home and the connected car can work together I had an awesome
conversation with Ralph DEA if you think about it today uh you leave your home uh
you have a voicemail system in the home and a voice command in the home you have
a different one in the car you have a different one when you get to work with
AT&T Drive we're trying to put all those things together so have the same voice
commands at home in the car and in the office to make it easier for everyone to
interact with their homes with their cars and everything in between all right
