The Innova Conecta - Domotica Fácil app has been created by Vodafone Spain Foundation as part of its Espacio Innova initiative. It has been developed by the company Mouse4all.
The app facilitates access to the benefits of home automation considering the needs of people with disabilities.
Main features of the app:
& # 8226; & # 8195; Based on commercial devices available in the market, easily acquired and low cost
& # 8226; & # 8195; Accessible: easy to use and configure by the end user or a support person using a single board or ceiling app for Android
& # 8226; & # 8195; Useful for all people, both with and without disabilities
& # 8226; & # 8195; Voice control integrated with Google Assistant
& # 8226; & # 8195; Sharing of boards between users
& # 8226; & # 8195; Two operating modes: "edit mode" to create and modify panels and "user mode" in which only previously defined boards can be used.
What are the benefits for users?
& # 8226; & # 8195; Increased autonomy and privacy.
& # 8226; & # 8195; Comfort, convenience and ease of use from a single app.
& # 8226; & # 8195; Access with different interfaces depending on the needs and capabilities of the user
The current version of the app allows:
& # 8226; & # 8195; Remote control of devices controlled by an infrared remote control such as a television or an air conditioner: on, off, channel change, etc.
& # 8226; & # 8195; Turning smart plugs on and off to which lamps and small appliances can be connected.
To use the app from the Google assistant, just say "Ok Google, talk to Easy Domotics". To make it work, it is necessary to have the app installed on the phone or tablet and add the Google account in the app settings (detailed information in the user manual of the app).
