At WWDC 2014 Apple is going to announce the new software platform which will turn iPhone into the solution for remote control of lightning, security system and other components of “smart home”. This news is provided by The Financial Times with the reference to its own sources. The Apple solution will allow to combine the current components into the common eco-system. 

 

«The integrated Apple system shall simplify the “smart home” settings and control using the mobile devices. For instance, the room lightning shall switch on automatically when iPhone owner enters the premises. The platform peculiarities are described in details in one of Apple patents”

iPhone users can control the sound, switch on the fireplace, the channels of TV, change the light intensity and even close the blinds. Settings will be saved for the certain situations. The devices shall be comminuted through wireless network; however the device connecting all the remaining devices is still unknown. Considering the latest trend of the Company, probably Apple TV of the next generation shall integrate the above.

Apple is expected to create the separate standard for the components of the “smart home” and such solution developers should obtain the compliance certificate of MFI («Made for iPhone»). Currently, the acoustic systems, accessories and other electronics are produced under such scheme.

The new product shall be presented at WWDC 2014 on 2 June in San-Francisco. Apart from the platform of “smart home”, the operational systems iOS 8OS X 10.10 and more fordable iMac shall be presented.
