Savant, a smart home technology company, has introduced the Smart Home App for Apple TV, an on-screen control platform that provides access to smart home functionality via high-definition graphics. The graphical control icons can be shown full screen or as an overlay to live TV or a movie that is currently playing.
Savant’s Smart Home App for Apple TV provides an easy-to-navigate menu of icons in a large visual format representing key features such as climate, lighting, audio, Savant Scenes and more. This on-screen experience is part of the company’s Pro App software that provides an interface with smart home functionality via touch panels, mobile devices, the Savant Pro Remote—and now the TV. Users can select their favorite channels, choose to control or view the status of a service in the home or to activate a Savant Scene.
With The Smart Home App for Apple TV, Savant can not only provide access to quick control options, but also provide the user with “live” features such as door station or security camera views, TrueImage control of lighting including applying favorite colors to USAI Lighting Fixtures, Savant DMX Light Strips and Smart Bulbs, along with a view into energy usage history and current generation statistics.
Integrators will appreciate the ease of implementation, managed through the Savant IP Video feature set or as a standalone “Direct Mode” option with a dedicated Apple TV.
The Savant Smart Home App for Apple TV will become available in late 2019. To learn more visit Savant in booth #1500 during CEDIA Expo 2019.
