Canada blooms at the National Home Show

a whole lineup of amazing tech toys the
latest for your smart home automation

be interviewing some of the latest and
the greatest all right it's Cynthia with
a home automation channel and we are

thank you so much for being with us home automation okay
amazing so what can you show us in this
fabulous room that can be good for your
smart home so right here we have the
hunter douglas automated blinds these
guys are both bottom-up and top-down or
using control them from the app on your
phone or your tablet and you can also
set different scenes you can said I you
have them go automatically up in the
morning with the sunrise or get out and
shut down with the sunset as well we
also have the Philips hue smart lighting
system on one moment now this works in
conjunction with your app right yeah so
it works at the power view app the
creative one hunter douglas to give you
the ultimate control over your blind home automation
perfect and how much would something
like those blinds go for well we have it
on sale with a two-hundred-dollar rebate
I think normally go for about two
hundred dollars per the blinds and the
app is free perfect all right let's move
on now to that light you were talking
about okay so a bright idea here tell us
more about it so this is one of my
favorite pieces of smart technology
because it gives the ultimate control of
your lights without you having to need
to switch right you do it all from your
phone or your tablet so if you will get
these beautiful bedside lamp shades to
turn them off turn off
yeah the water fly kind of makes it a
little slow here you get to remind you
can also choose different color scenes
as well how many colors are there so
there's 16 million different color
options all right so won't be hard to
find something that tickles everyone
fans exactly we have scenes and for
everything you make it look like the Sun
sets of anak you make it look like the
Arctic aurora light you know I can get a
little mood lighting for those special
you haven't set up like on a timer or
something like that if people wanted to
switch it up yeah you can create your
own schedule you also do is neat feature
where you have it mimicked the sunrise
when you wake up sunset when you go to
sleep and if you're on vacation you want
it to look like the lights are all you
can control it from across the world as
well yeah and definitely something for
everyone so you can create a little
romance or make it super bright you have
a disco setting at all hi actually you
can download third-party apps that let
it syncs with your music and your movies
way if you if you are watching home automation
particular movie that you can have it
program so it gives you the special
effects just like in the theater there's
latest in home theater all right take us
over to the next one all right Sean
Anthony leading us into the Promised
Land so here in our playroom art toys
but one of the features of this room is
the nano nano Lee what's an an elite so
these again are another set of smart
lights but these are each individual
panel it's program that you can attach
them to form different configuration oh
so different and how many do you get us
when the starter pack you get nine
panels which you do have on sale here
today can they go for so regular price
is 299 and we have am on sale for 219 99
right on save and eighty dollars just
like that okay amazing and so you can
obviously get more and created like a
major cluster take over your whole room
if you wanted oh yeah I definitely keys
up the opportunities are endless like
it's up to your imagination on the
common inspectors inspection expansion
fact they give you like three more
leaves for expansion packs and there's a
new version coming out of that allows it
to go with your music as well yeah very
nice wow that's a great idea I like that
how many of these things do you have in
your home haha too many oh and that also
works with the app oh yeah that works
with the Nano VPAP as well which you
have on earth
so actually with this one you can create
different color scenes you can control
the speed you control the brightness all
done automatically through your abs and
this app is free as well oh yeah this
app suite at the App Store or Google
Play so for example let's say want to do
the candy gram I just hope the app you
can choose the speed in the brightness
and voila giving me the ultimate control
again it's up to your imagination the
opportunities are endless yeah another
feature we have in the playroom to is
the mural this is actually a favorite
show case where this pretty much
transforms your home into an art gallery
Wow you can also get information famous
paintings discesa and you're controlling
it just by motion all you do is a
virtual cube they just wave right
through and it changes the picture Ocean
Center Monet on top of that tube is also
a nap okay there's always an eel who
download your own pictures as well okay
so if you have artists in the house you
can showcase their stuff oh yeah
definitely so here you have the Vinci
collection so there's no cost for the
Sapphire the app is free the frame home automation
itself is on the market yet but when it
does get released this version is going
to be 550 and then you can get another
version which has a wood trim for 650
and when is this planning to be relieved
I within the next few weeks I best fight
I see it all right best buy dot CA you
got to check it out all right let's go
on to the next one oh all right you are
media room the latest television is
about to hit the market this is a cue
led so what makes the cue led so special
it's although the processing house how
the back screen is lit up so this is the
latest in like back lighting technology
so you have hua hua Yue HD su HD and now
this is the next step which is Q LED and
are you able to use this in conjunction
with like Google home or Amazon Alexa oh
yeah you can use with voice commands as
a smart TV so you can also have your
Netflix or YouTube all automated on the
TV you don't need any extra devices it's
all on your TV right we also have it
connected to our Bluetooth
speakers that's also from Samsung and
it's all wireless so you have the front
soundbar you have the subwoofer you have
the two back speakers again all
connected wirelessly through bluetooth
amazing the latest and the greatest it
makes me want to watch TV again if I got
fired good time maybe I'll spend some
time in this media room afterwards what
do you think yeah well with this TV you
might not leave yeah I think so all I
missing it's a popcorn all right let's
move on to the next room thank you son
Anthony amazing
it seems like we're heading into a
high-traffic area here okay why don't we
on here here we have the samsung smart
fridge one of the best features of this
is that you can actually view inside of
your fridge and you can also stream it
to to your phone so see what a gross you
sure you're not sure if you have eggs or
milk now you can check it live now if
you don't have your you're not at home
you can check this from your phones all
key be done on the Samsung home app
right on your phone right how it works
is in this panel there are three cameras
so once you something shut the fridge in
about 56 seconds it updates the image
shut the front door but wait there's
more yeah you can also set different
labels that let you know when the food
expired as well and have the thing you
set up yourself oh yeah definitely cuz
you don't want to I don't like week
right I cook alive but sometimes you
have a long work for me so now your
fridge will remind you when something's
about to expire or when you've run out
of something so you can go to grocery
store pick it up that's just a few of
the many features you can no longer you
need like to stick pictures to the panel
you can now have a live slideshow if you
put the whole family portrait you can
also mirror your TV so if you're
watching the game or you're watching an
episode of Game of Thrones now you have
to worry about missing a moment it's
married a TV on the fridge currently the
latest encourage technology some food
for thought here folks sean anthony is
it just me or is it a little hot in here
can we do something about that oh we can
definitely something about that with the
next smart thermostat so this thermostat
is very easy to install and condos
apartments or even your home and then
once you install it and activate it
begins to learn your home so learns the
size of your home and learns how long it
takes to heat it up I wanna taste to
cool it down as well as your schedule
right ultimately saving you in time and home automation
energy right once you learn how your
schedule is in your home is it starts
effectively heating your home so much so
that Enbridge is offering a hundred
dollar incentive to get people to start
binding so we can cut back on the wit
energy waste
oh it's eco-friendly and friendly for
you the lazy one like myself who doesn't
want to set things so this is actually
going to do the thinking for me oh yeah
definitely easy to like I just let her
know when you're coming home when you're
leaving and it'll take it over from
there you can actually set up a routine
with us you say schedule there you go
now all the home stuff is doing all the
thinking for you so this is perfect for
someone like myself it also it also
works in collaboration with the nest
smart carbon monoxide and smoke
detection we ever like burnt popcorn or
burn something small but it makes it
sounds like you're bringing down the
house now what it is is determine
whether it's a a small fire alarm or
like a huge fire alarm so if you're
burning your popcorn you just let you
know subtly either to your phone or
gives out a subtle alarm versus like if
it's a major fire that's when the real
alarm comes out but it does that
difference right you don't have to worry
about burning something small and then
waking up the neighborhood perfect for
the accident prone people out there you
know who you are and you heard it here
first this is where you want to be
alright thanks again shot Anthony
amazing so I want a smart home be
without a video doorbell okay so take us
through this John Anthony this is what
called the ring yes so here is the lord
of the ring right here now he's going to
talk us through this so this is our
smart home security system the ring so
what it does is not just a fancy
futuristic-looking doorbell it actually
gives you live camera feed so once you
bring the doorbells that Apple alert you
that's there's motion at your front door
and look who it is okay just lay up so
it alerts your phone so early and your
tablet so you don't even have to be at
the front door you can actually answer
it through voice commands as well okay
so you can so they can talk to you can
you talk to them yeah definitely it's a
two-way communication you can do that
right from your smart device oh yeah
actually when you get it wait for it
wait for it buffering now we are in a
very trafficky zone right now as a lot
of concrete here so the Wi-Fi is a bit
dodgy but ideally in an ideal home where
you have Wi-Fi capability this is
something that would be working okay so
we have it up and running now so
if I it's hard to hear right now but you
can help ya guys here what's it like you
can actually hear the communication so
what's up talking on the tablet you talk
communicate through my phone it will let
them know through the intercom in the
doorbell and there you have it so you
can do everything right from the palm of
your hand you also record live footage
so you had 24 hours surveillance if
there's motion detection so someone like
just runs across or an animal runs
across your phone will alert you that is
motion in front of your front door or
your back door as well so it's a great
safety feature for people that are
concerned about a new Lane a smart way
to protect yourself and your family I'll
ring that Bell and there it is alright
ok so we are here now at the oculus rift
booth at best buy with Zach all right
Zach thank you for being on a show today
another problem alright awesome so you
are holding this bad boy now what can
you tell me about it well this is the
oculus rift and it is a VR headset so VR
is virtual reality and essentially what
it is is it gives it allows you to play
video games in the virtual world
essentially it pretty much insults your
senses and actually makes feels like
you're actually there alright cool and
what kind of template of you have got on
there today for us right now we actually
have a roller coaster simulator so the
next best thing actually being on one
write amazing I'm excited ok so I'm
going to try this out now what can you
tell me about the resolution in terms of
your eyes well essentially the yucca
suresh's there's two screens actually in
one for each eye and it is actually both
they're both 1080 so you're getting
quite high resolution home automation for it within the
pad set and how does it power up I was
actually all run right through our PC we
have here quite a powerful PC it's able
to play most high demanding graphical
games ok so this works in conjunction
with your video game does it work with
regular TV at all or I do not believe so
no unfortunately it main use is mainly
video games and that's definitely what
you want that's the
break dance absolutely pro you gamers
out there holy moly right okay so how
much would something like this retail
for usually roughly in the 800 mark just
for the headset is alone and then of
course you definitely have to be able to
have a powerful enough PC to be able to
run it though that can range and that's
a whole never topic um but our promo
here is going for roughly about 679 679
down from like I said roughly about a
hundred dollars okay amazing alright
instant savings okay hook me up here
