Volume 8 Issue 4    April 2024

Greetings Everyone!


With so much talk in the media with everything going AI, I thought it would be timely to put out a special home technology AI issue. Here, we're going to explore the world of artificial intelligence (A.I.), specifically Josh.ai, and how this new technology we are currently installing in our client’s homes, takes smart homes to a whole new level.

 

Basically, Smart Homes Made Brilliant™

What is Josh.ai?

Tired of always having to research where that new streaming show or movie your friends just told you about is playing? 


Having difficulty finding that exact episode you’re looking for or constantly jumping from streaming service to streaming service and still can’t find it?


With so many services and more available and coming every day, it’s become a full time job just to locate and remember where they all are, let alone figuring out how to get the TV to play them.

 

Imagine coming home, walking into your family room and just saying-

Play Yellowstone, season 2 episode 5. Like magic, your TV springs to life and just does exactly what you asked of it and Yellowstone is instantly playing. No researching, no remote control fumbling, just a few spoken words and there’s Crazy Beth right on your screen.

 

Now image asking your music system to play your favorite songs at your preferred volume, set the perfect temperature, and mood, lighting and fireplace scene, lower your window treatments and even have Robbie your Robot get your wine and cheese ready all with one simple voice command! That reality is now here—maybe not quite yet for Robbie to bring your wine—but the rest is a reality! Robots coming soon…

How does it work?

Using discrete private closed loop microphones and an AI processor, it seamlessly integrates and controls various smart devices within your home allowing you to interact with and manage your smart home environment using natural language voice commands. No more touch panels, keypads, remote controls and other physical interfaces are needed.

 

Josh.ai's voice control system differentiates itself from any other voice control system by focusing on providing a premium, sophisticated, and highly customizable experience for controlling all your home’s technology, by just using voice commands.

 

Make your home brilliant with IDS and Josh.ai.

What is Josh.ai and how is it different from current voice control systems?


Voice-Controlled Convenience:

Josh.ai offers a more intuitive and convenient way to interact with your smart home devices. Instead of using apps or physical controls, you can simply speak commands to control lights, thermostats, entertainment systems, and more.


Josh.ai is designed to have a more advanced natural language processing capability. It aims to understand complex commands and context, making interactions feel more natural.

 

Personalized Experience:

The platform's voice recognition technology allows it to identify different users based on their voices. This enables personalized experiences for each family member, as the system can adjust settings and preferences based on who is speaking. Josh.ai emphasizes personalization and user profiles. It can recognize individual voices and tailor responses and actions to specific users. This means that each family member can have their own personalized experience and preferences.

 

Automation and Scenes:

With Josh.ai, you can create automation routines and scenes. For example, you can set up a "Good Night" scene that turns off all the lights, locks the doors, and adjusts the thermostat with a single voice command.

 

Privacy and Security:

Josh.ai emphasizes user privacy and data security. Conversations and interactions are encrypted, and the platform is designed to respect user privacy by not storing or sharing personal data—EVER!


No one is listening outside your home like Google, Amazon and Nest!

 

Professional Installation:

Josh.ai systems require professional installation. This ensures that all devices are properly integrated, configured, and optimized for the best user experience.

 

Future-Proofing:

Home automation technology is constantly evolving. By investing in a platform like Josh.ai, you might have access to updates and new features as they're released, helping to future-proof your Brilliant Home!

 

The world of technology is finally getting easy. Let us show you how!
