How Can I Control My Lights with Home Automation?

5 Ways to Use Lighting Control in Your Ozarks Home 

There was the old way of illuminating our homes with static light bulbs. And now there’s smart lighting control! These innovative solutions offer not only functionality and convenience but also the ability to customize your lights to any color and brightness at any time. 

And your phone isn’t the only way to control smart lights. Let’s explore five ways you can intuitively control smart lighting in your Lake of the Ozarks home.

1. Smart Home App 

The smart home experience begins with the app. Whether you have a Savant or Lutron control system, their respective apps serve as the central hub for all your home technologies, including smart lighting and shading. 

Within the app, you can personalize your smart LEDs by simply sliding your finger across the color wheel and adjusting the brightness bar. By creating scenes like 'Work' or 'Relax,' you’ll set the right mood in seconds. 

2. Wall Keypads 

When you’re in a rush, tapping a button or switch is sometimes the easiest method. You can upgrade standard on/off light switches with personalized, high-end wall plates that include custom buttons like "Movie Night" and "Workout.” 

3. Voice Control 

Don’t forget voice control! By integrating an advanced voice assistant into your household, like Josh.ai, you’ll effortlessly manage lighting through mere vocal instructions. Imagine returning home after a tiresome day and merely uttering, "Good evening, Josh." In an instant, your lights gracefully dim to a calming glow. 

4. Automation & Schedules 

Imagine landscape lights activating automatically at sunset—then deactivating on their own later. Or envision interior lights that gradually dim and shift to a golden color through the afternoon. A smart lighting system allows you to create personalized schedules that follow your daily routine or respond automatically to sensors.

5. Remote 

Prefer to use a handheld remote? With a smart home remote, you’ll use the same device to control the TV, Blu-ray player, music, and lights!
