智能家居是在互联网影响之下物联化的体现。智能家居通过物联网技术将家中的各种设备(如音视频设备、照明系统、窗帘控制、空调控制、安防系统、数字影院系统、影音服务器、影柜系统、网络家电等)连接到一起,提供家电控制、照明控制、电话远程控制、室内外遥控、防盗报警、环境监测、暖通控制、红外转发以及可编程定时控制等多种功能和手段。与普通家居相比,智能家居不仅具有传统的居住功能,兼备建筑、网络通信、信息家电、设备自动化,提供全方位的信息交互功能,甚至为各种能源费用节约资金

Smart home is a manifestation of IoT under the influence of the
Internet. Smart homes use Internet of Things technology to connect
various devices in the home, such as audio and video devices, lighting
systems, curtain controls, air conditioning controls, security systems,
digital cinema systems, audio and video servers, video cabinet systems,
network appliances, etc., providing various functions and means such as
home appliance control, lighting control, telephone remote control,
indoor and outdoor remote control, anti-theft alarm, environmental
monitoring, HVAC control, infrared forwarding, and programmable timing
control. Compared with ordinary homes, smart homes not only have
traditional residential functions, but also include building, network
communication, information appliances, and equipment automation,
providing comprehensive information exchange functions, and even saving
funds for various energy costs.
智能家居的概念起源很早,但一直未有具体的建筑案例出现,直到1984年美国联合科技公司(United
Technologies Building
System)将建筑设备信息化、整合化概念应用于美国康涅狄格州(Connecticut)哈特佛市(Hartford)的CityPlaceBuilding时,才出现了首栋的“智能型建筑”,从此揭开了全世界争相建造智能家居派的序幕
The
concept of smart home originated very early, but there have been no
specific building cases until 1984 when United Technologies Building
System applied the concept of building equipment informatization and
integration to CityPlaceBuilding in Hartford, Connecticut, USA. It was
not until then that the first "smart building" appeared, marking the
beginning of the global competition to build smart homes
