Erik Johannson on Öland smartest home – New Technology

       

A happy Erik Johannson was congratulated by Ny Teknik’s chief editor Susanna Baltscheffsky on the main stage at Elmässan in Kista.

Erik Johanson’s many proprietary solutions have to impress the jury. They justify the victory that he “turned an old house into a smart home where technology is integrated in a cost effective and inventive way.”

– Very funny! It shows that I’m on the right track. Although most are very interested, there is the occasional idiot who explained me, says Erik Johannson

He works as a lift technician and has worked with its smart home systems at play since the family with a wife and two daughters bought the house five years ago.

Huset controlled with an app that Erik Johannson made. To make it easy to use display housing the different floors in a 3D model. Then just click on a room and put on such lighting or music.

The app also the status of the floor heating and temperatures in the room, in the refrigerator and freezer. Erik Johannson can see where in the program the washing machine and dryer are, and request a text message when they have gone clear. Even the locks to the front doors can be controlled using the app. Handy if he sits in the car and wondering if he locked the door.

The house can also be monitored and controlled from several large touchscreens. One sits in the hall immediately as you enter the house. Each room also sits control panels and keypads Erik Johannson built myself to fit in the house which is from 1890. Ir-detectors both inside and out keeps track of whether someone is nearby and controls the lights.

Although smoke alarms are connected. Then the alarm will know Erik Johannson directly into any room. At the same time all the lights throughout the house, the screens lit up, and there is even the family to gather.

The victory means, except honor, a gift voucher of 10 000 of the ELFA and that over a two year period to be “hemtestare” of IKEA’s products for the smart home.
