Imagine walking in after sunset: the TV detects occupancy, dims lamps via a smart bridge, and loads your watchlist right where you left off. No hunting for remotes. Tell us: which automations would make your evenings smoother, and what should your system do before you even sit down?
Personalization That Respects Context
Microphone sweeps map reflections and noise floors, adjusting EQ and dialog clarity so voices pop at any volume. When the dishwasher hums, dialog lifts automatically. Share your room’s quirks—vaulted ceilings, rugs, or bare walls—and whether calibration finally made everything sound ‘right’ to you.
Personalization That Respects Context
Presence sensors and profiles swap recommendations, volume caps, and content ratings the moment kids enter. No scrambling for settings. When bedtime hits, the TV nudges toward calm playlists. How would you design a family-friendly default that still feels welcoming for movie nights together?
Edge Intelligence and Efficiency at Home
Tiny neural models on low-power chips listen for wake words, letting main processors sleep until needed. Your soundbar becomes responsive while sipping energy. Which voice habits do you rely on most—play, pause, lights, or search—and where do you draw the line for always-listening devices?
Edge Intelligence and Efficiency at Home
IoT displays read ambient light and network conditions to balance picture quality with energy and bandwidth. Portable projectors throttle gently during outages. Share your best battery-saving hack for travel setups and how you trade a touch of fidelity for reliable viewing on the go.
Future Horizons: AR, Spatial Audio, and Broadcast Convergence
Point your phone and see virtual controls anchored to your TV, soundbar, and lights. Depth sensing maps surfaces for precise placement. Would this help accessibility and onboarding, and which controls should be anchored permanently versus summoned only when needed?
Future Horizons: AR, Spatial Audio, and Broadcast Convergence
Devices scan room geometry to steer sound toward seats, preserving clarity for everyone. Move a chair, and the system retunes quietly. Tell us about your most surprising spatial audio moment and whether room calibration changed how you arrange your living space.
