Hazards Mitigation

Occupancy Sensing Lighting

Ceiling mounted occupancy sensors use technology to automatically turn lights on when motion is detected.

Advanced Lighting Controls

Enhanced lighting controls are especially beneficial if you experience vision impairment or hearing loss. Smart light controls can be programmed to support your needs with visual or audio cues when appliances have completed cycles or visitors arrive at the door. And, smart lighting controls are designed to increase energy efficiency and lower costs by adapting light intensity according to various parameters (natural light, occupancy, etc.).

Wireless LED Interior Lighting

Use of Wi-Fi enabled LED lights allow you to remotely operate lighting on a smartphone. In addition, many of these lighting systems include smart sensors that automatically illuminate at night and turn off during the day and activate only when an interior space is occupied.

Smart Dimmers

Smart dimmer switches enable you to dim and control interior lighting remotely through voice commands and mobile software applications. These applications also allow you to schedule the operation of lighting based on established daily routines.

Smart Cameras & Monitors

Smart wireless security cameras allow you to monitor interior or exterior space remotely through a smartphone or tablet. Many of these monitoring systems have the capability to record video continuously or for set periods of time, or only when motion is detected. Some have audio communication capabilities that allow you to listen to the camera’s environment and talk to anyone inside or outside of the home. Night vision allows viewing of interior and exterior spaces in complete darkness. Many cameras self-adjust to existing lighting conditions to deliver excellent picture quality even in the glare of bright sunlight. The camera mounts allow units to tilt and pan or remain in a fixed position and most allow the user to zoom in and out to see close details or a wide area.

Smart Doorbells

Smart doorbell/entrance monitor systems allow you to monitor and to record visitors from any location via smartphones, tablets and computers. Motion detection sensors, alarms, and two-way audio features are available on many of these devices.

Door Locks

Opening your home to visiting family members and friends is a means of staying connected. Smart locks can be used to automatically or remotely lock doors, while allowing you, family members or care providers to share virtual keys with guests. Smart monitors and locks give individuals the ability to unlock and monitor their doors from remote locations and, if desired, grant people access without having to give them physical house keys.

A phone, keypad, or a traditional key can also be used to unlock the door. Smart door locks can be used remotely via Wi-Fi with a central control device known as a “Hub” that allows different technologies to work together and to be operated remotely by voice or smartphone signal.
