This is why I love Android! Can you imagine doing all of this with Project Glass? Walking around your house controlling every aspect of your home. If I didn't own an Android phone, this would make me switch in a heartbeat! Please +1 and Reshare this video #Google #Android #homeautomation #micasaverde #teamandroid

[@lonstar819]

NICE!

[@ChrisDruif]

Home Automation. That will be the real next step. Not some smart watch.

[@muck11790]

Ruscle Jones

[@JimSearle]

That's awesome, just wish it supported Insteon instead of only Z-Wave.

[@Risket]

All it needs is a bluetooth Star Trek badge that you can pin on your shirt. Tap the badge or say "Computer" and then voice your command. Or you could use CommBadge

[@shermenz]

Armando! Here's a story for you. I was on the fence before switching to Android about a year ago. And after I watched your reasons why Android is better then iOS, I was sold. Thank you for that, best tech decision I've ever made. Then you unknowingly led the path of using this new device and theme it like a boss. Then you taught me how to Tasker. A few weeks ago I made the decision I want some home automation, and now you come up with this vid... Thank you for taking me on this journey!

[@mondobytes]

#Apple announced at #wwdc2014 home automation for iOS users. I'm interested because I love home automation. FWIW I posted this video a year ago June 5.

[@PhilWilcox]

Your wife can now turn on the air conditioning herself :)

[@carlmartin656]

That's right I remember this. #AppleOnCatchUp.

[@ChrisDruif]

Apple is cracking me up 😆😂

[@JoeAvery]

Notice how all of the vendors jumped on that when Apple wanted to make a _Uniform_ (read: proprietary) platform for Home Automation.

[@koppth]

Unbelievable that Apple might be first to the customers. Sadly android@home and project tungsten never made it. 

[@OmegaRaze]

My brain has officially imploded into a singularity due to sheer overload of awesomeness. Things like this are why I love Android and will never, ever leave it.

[@mrwatcherofmovies]

Me : Start the engine of my car Android: Your car is already running at this moment with your driver and your wife and going to the motel.

[@TiagoAzevedo]

I don't believe there are people not believing this is possible! This is easy to set up as making a pie. Tasker is your friend!

[@MarkBurfeind]

Even though I am a big fan of apple i've gotta say thats really awesome! sweet home!

[@kylearinzol9729]

Same HERE

[@koncinar]

It's amaizing how many awesome things come from Android users themself, not just from the highly resourced companies.

[@AlexandraGoddard]

"OK Google. Open the pod bay doors"

[@Bluejaunter]

Alexandra Goddard I’m sorry. I can’t do that...

[@zzzzHALEzzzz]

It's the future

[@DavidGuiraoTatlitug]

I've had Z-Wave in our Miami home via Vivint Alarm Company. I can control doors including raising garage door. Control temperature or program to change through out the day by itself. Everything you could do plus cameras. What I can't do is voice command the system and I pay a fortune for what could be done for much much less by purchasing the equipment myself. I'm very surprised that google has not given more thought to this. I think many people would step by step automate their homes as they have money. As modules can be added one at a time this is the perfect way to do what most of us would want. Sure automation can get much more complicated but your video show a realistic approach for the average guy. Can't wait to see everything. I have just found this and I know its months old.

[@ColdFear6666]

This... is sooo daaamn AMAZING! #thepowerofandroid

[@waldolc]

I've worked with Savant systems for years (the are strictly Apple based). What I like about this demo are all of the features that Apple have not embraced that are old hat to Android devices. Keep up the good work.

[@Iamthealmighty]

absolutely awesome man :)

[@ThePoeticVampire]

I bow down to you sir! You certainly took all the videos i had seen about house automation with android to the next level... i'll be waiting for the next episodes...

[@AsitorCorporation]

Better hope nobody steals your phone

[@mondobytes]

+Captain Capellini nothing will happen

[@AsitorCorporation]

It is a very cool system though. How much and how long did it take to make? I'm thinking of getting some Phillips Hue bulbs and an automated lock to start with, but I aim in 5 years time to have a full automated house, all the way down to robot vacuums.

[@Leonvolt28]

Captain Capellini it's great to start with sonoff wifi switches. The are cheap and you can use them with Custom frimware.

[@naythan3076]

Armando Ferreira, Try this Method: Take your Battery out of your phone 📱 so the person that stole it, it won’t turn on.

[@ThePamimo]

@@naythan3076 How do you want to remove the battery if your phone is stolen... And by the way google recognises your voice specifically. Worst case scenario you have to lock your phone.

[@omespino]

Armando eres una inspiración total ya van 2 videos que veo y definitivamente eres un ejemplo a seguir, es bueno saber que hay gente como tú en el mundo, subscrito! y realmente muchas gracias!

[@dagady]

It's really amazing!!!!!

[@MaroaneBoutayeb-zineDzine]

this is huge, i didn't think it was that far advanced on android ... thanx for the demo ...

[@luiss428]

wow imagine using this to scare your friends if they like open a door and it locks by itself or things start moving

[@wraithRaptor]

Armando, you sold it to me when you said activate computer and that beastly looking computer from the year 2133 turned on. That was straight out of Iron Man! Can't wait for the next video!

[@AgungTriantoWidyaNugraha]

141 people dislike this video for it's awesomeness.

[@kryptoniteee]

Agung Trianto Widya Nugraha some people just go round disliking stuff. Wish I could find them and torture them

[@manuelgf]

Home automation isn't longer only part of science fiction books thumbs up for your video that showcases the potential of Android ecosystem

[@nadzirahsahabudin2439]

what happen if his phone missing?

[@vinayagarwal4581]

+Nadzirah Sahabudin Sir, we can control the home with one or more phones at the same time

[@my71chevro1et]

Amazing. The future is now, people. Thanks for being our guide, Armando.

[@SanchoMuzax]

Markó Krisztián ilyesmire gondoltam NFC kapcsán.

[@eaminet]

mondjuk ez sokkal hatásosabb lenne egy moto Xel, vagy egy google glassal ahol hozzá sem kell érni az eszközhöz és úgy lehet kiadni ezeket az utasításokat. akkor máris több értelme van a TV-s dolgonak is. Főzöl a konyhában aztán mondod "moto kezdődik a sons of anarchy" és már kapcsol is :)

[@Saif0412]

Very impressive. I didn't think we had reached this level of automaton technology wise...

[@meowmeowcat99]

The affirmative thing bug the hell out of me

[@shaunhil]

Looking forward to the following videos. The things you have taught me with tasker and now this is incredible. Keep up the good work.

[@pablomooradian8268]

or you could do everything manually like a normal person ._.

[@user2C47]

You can't do that from another planet.

[@MudbloodWizard]

Jeeezz... i never thought this was possible! This is the FUTURE in your hand! Awesome. Thanks for making this video, i am very proud to be an Android user.

[@barbaraevans5593]

Revolv looks like it will please both the Apple and Android fans with an easier interface than Vera, but I love the way you used Voice. Thanks for posting.

[@trey_nation]

Ya see, its things like this that make me love android so much more than iOS. Bravo Armando.

Eres el puñetero Toni Stark! Te seguiré de cerca... Gracias por el vídeo!

[@paulhibbert]

This is utterly mint. How is androids voice command understanding these requests??

[@taveeeee]

What am I watching. That's the coolest thing ever, man.

[@Gryph30]

About a year ago or a little more, I wanted to show my iOS friends that android does more things than their device. I didn't know how to do this then I found your video on here. I was like awesome there you go so I posted on my FB wall and tagged my iOS friends. They are still in denial to this day. haha I love your videos and always look forward to your next one. I also regularly check out The Droid Effect. Keep up the good work!

[@ScionOfTheSeventhDawn]

Oh, and just in case you don't know yet, your house is awesome!!!!

[@Caseylawton]

Armando I'm so glad to see you doing this. This is my dream for home tech and android makes it possible. Like you said this is only a small bit of what we can do, this is the future.

[@BeyondSkys09]

your videos rock man! that friendly, honest, down to earth persona you convey through the camera really sets you apart from the others. Everyone subscribe to this guy!! Lets get him to 100,000 !

[@ripperrox]

Don't take my comments as negative but I have extensive DIY experience and program Crestron full time, Android is great platform and having NFC built in is yet another great option. The voice control thing gets old fast and you may also want to consider building actual interfaces to control things *silently*. Cheapest and best route I know of for Android would be CommandFusion but not sure it support LUUP to control your Mi Casa Verde but can do most other protocols you might need.

[@mondobytes]

It works over mobile networks, so you can be in Hawaii looking at the status of your house. Wait till I show you guys when I do the video on camera's with sensors and more goodies. Can't wait for this series, really excited!

[@mondobytes]

Like I said in my video, this is just a SMALL demo of what I will be showing you. What you mentioned on "automatically" doing things I will show in my series. Also, I was just showing single action commands. When you start setting up scenes I can say something like "Activate Goodbye Mode" All of the lights shut off in my house, the door locks, the A/C unit turns off, and food dispenses for my dog. Trust me, you haven't seen anything!

[@aaronsinghcmc]

i love home automation.. and its just awesome what u guys are doing.. the one thing that bugs me is charging the sensors and the lock system.. can't that be charged by direct wire.. it would be a head ache to replace batteries.. also if the door battery dies.. I would assume you'd be locked out.. ?? lots of respect for the efforts u guys are making..

[@NoLie6]

Wow, this is just AMAZING!!! I will definitively intergrate some of that cool things in my house. Everyone in my house is using Android devices from smartphones and tables to android tv boxes and chromecast, so it should intergrate well.

[@codes4coffee64]

I'm so glad I switched to android! I didn't know it had this much potential

[@N3tTurbino]

This is so damn great! Finally someone bringing to mortal people a possible way to do all this magic! Thanks man!

[@MaxLyre]

I cant believe people dislike such awesomeness...

[@anne91276]

I am VERY, VERY impressed! Please ignore all these silly nonsense about your video. If technology can be used properly, it can be the most wonderful thing. It can even amaze us with its artificial intelligence and we can marvel at its ability to change the world as we know of.

[@PatrickIssahakian]

Thanks a lot for doing my request, you're the man !

[@ducdong6466]

omg this is awesome !! i wanted to switch back to ios but after watching this I continue using my android phone haha

[@anonymousvagrant]

The time he took to talk to his phone, i already done most of the chores.

[@youssefmohamed5638]

Imagine that you were at yor bed relaxing then you forgot the ac and tv and door opened just with a voice command it will turn it of

[@SustainaBIT]

Youssef Mohamed then it's just usable at the bed?

[@TimBurton1087]

Armando is correct. He is just demonstrating single actions, one by one. But, the power of NFC or wifi/bluetooth detection could execute several commands. Let's say Armando comes home at night, and uses his phone to unlock his door via NFC. The same NFC tag could also turn on inside lights, his computer, and the A/C, all with one scan of a tag. It's really up to the user how to utilize it and take it to whatever level you wish.

[@mondobytes]

That is fantastic! Thank you for being a loyal subscriber, it's comments like these that love showing you guys how awesome tech can be. Thank you!

[@mixpix]

Love the video. I truly cannot wait until I get my Lockitron so I can start doing this!

[@lavinwilliams9606]

Absolutely off the chain really looking forward to see how you achieved this amazing tech

[@TVTelemedia]

i invested in the lowes product cant wait to see your next episodes !

[@JMaldonado64]

Love the enthusiasm that you trasmit

[@OviWanKeno9i]

I've been wanting to do this forever :) especially with Android! Can't wait for the videos.

[@xRotseNestoRxHD]

@Mariusz what if you're not Home and you need to check on the status of the doors. Obviously when you are standing in front of them there would be no reason to check on doors. This video was just to show whats possible and it is quite awesome IMO

[@TheRokk]

At first I did think that it was fake but now it's awsome

[@touni97]

You always have amazing stuff Armando ! Can't wait !

[@kenney5454]

Sounds Great, comparing Nest @ $250 x 6 HVAC zones + DHW = $1,750 to Vera Lite Zwave @ $180 for the base + 7 Zwave stats @ 65 = $635 with endless add on capability like freeze, flood, intrution etc.

[@Gaz10t]

This is amazing! Very, very well done! You have one great setup!

[@BausBrock]

That is probably the coolest thing I have ever seen

[@andromaster1]

I cant wait for the next couple of weeks.... This was soooo sick

[@PSPDrummer]

I like the fact this technology is actually being put to use. all of it. ie... a person with a smart phone and that still has to write down your phone number.

[@mondobytes]

Automating your Home Cinema and creating LED-based lighting scenes for parties might well be considered a little on the showy side. But intelligent zoned heating control and ‘all out’ lighting functions are sensible, practical and energy saving ideas. Because of the wide range of uses, automating your home can either be as blingy and frivolous or as clever and useful as you like. There is so much wasted energy every day, my electricity bill already dropped 10% & It's summer time!

[@StatsMass]

This is so bad ass on so many levels!!! Two thumbs up to you Armando!

[@davitdavitdavit]

This is just the pick of the Android and technology.

[@Stoner352]

that was AMAZING!!!! and this is the reason why i stick with Android over iPhones.

[@MrHollow]

Armando Ferreira i've been wanting to do this in my house for a while now and i wouldn't mind doing it without the voice commands, the problem is buying the other stuff you need to completely control the house, receivers and transmitters which i assume cost A LOT OF MONEY to buy and implement.

[@cryfatal]

This is awesome, is it possible to link this to tasker? and perhaps make use of motion sensors or when mobile make contacts with certain cell(s) to unlock front door without needing to voice everything? I know certain cars keys/cars can do this using some sort of range detection (so as long as you have the keys on your person the cars unlocks/locks when you move away/towards).

[@DingoDyce]

@TexazPitbull, His door lock has a key pad, and I'm pretty sure he can turn on a light manually. And if he loses his phone, he can use Cerberus (or his preferred security app) to track it down, and he can use Tasker and other methods to back up his automaton settings to the cloud. So, no, he's not screwed.

[@ashishmittal4423]

hey buddy. great work. can you tell me what are the sensor and motors you are using for opening and closing doors. that will be a great help. thanks

[@garethunderhill]

@Armando: this is another great video, love your work! I'm intrigued now though, can this be integrated with the google glass you now have? That would be a really practical implementation of this automation. Always pulling the phone out seemed clunky for the more trivial stuff, but with glass it would be seemless! DO A VIDEO OF THAT!!!!!

[@NickoPost]

Saw the original video a while back so I will looking forward to the future webisodes you are going to make

[@dylanjames1947]

you are awesome maan .keep up the good work and everyone is waiting for the tutorial

[@SaakeBotha]

Jarvis is way more improved than this, but this is a great start! Love it!

[@TheKasperMusic]

I'm an iPhone 5 user and I liked this video.

[@nicolasrigaud1139]

Wonderfull job. I have one question, how do you remote start up your samsung TV ?

[@ManuelRiveraFer]

Wow... my best goal with NFC was to make sleep and wake the pc, and change the main screen to the TV (Win+P) but this is just amazing

[@aldo9405]

Awesome videos, Armando! I've watched all of your series on using Android for home automation. Can't wait for more! Since you were initially inspired by Doug from DroidKC, can you PLEASE make a video on how he does more of the in depth automations using Tasker and the other apps that he listed. Perhaps you can talk him into doing a tutorial, as well, rather than just the demos that he already has. Keep up the great work on home automation and your on-going videos on the powers of Android!

[@Muscleduck]

I'm planning on doing home automation with Android combined with a Raspberry Pi server and some Arduino boards. I'll be sure to watch your vids. Hope you have some that go in depth about the configuration and hardware used.

[@KrishnaKaushalPanduru]

Seriously superb!! u put those motes or something in every gadget in ur home??

[@warrenbray2979]

Great videos. I have been getting into your vids and tutorials and I am setting up my own system this week. Could you tell me how you used google now to operate the various devices without leaving the the google now app. This Would be much appreciated, thanks

[@l1o9o6p7]

you just blew my mind..this is amazing..can all this be done off site with phone(device)?

[@francisco.vizcaya]

excelente, mi mas sinceras felicitaciones. Si quiero seguir esa ruta para automatizar. me fascina. buenas suerte.

[@shanewooll8654]

I really enjoyed the scenes/triggers... my imagination is flowing :)

[@cryfatal]

Same here, voice is great and all. But prefer if it was automatic with the use of tasker. such as when it is night (using time) and when person is in room (using motion sensors) turn lights on. or in my previous comment when phone is near house (location using "near cell") unlock front door. that sort of stuff would be cool, cant wait for tutorial :)

[@TheVirIngens]

First 4 seconds were the best!

[@alexramos777]

Nice video... What about a controlled redistribution of the air cooling in the house.

[@zgetikian]

Hi Armando, looked awesome. I am currently waiting for the Lockitron for locks. I didn't know that you could use other locks to connect with the phone. Can you tell me what brand that lock was? Also the thermostat.

[@FernandoMaldonado]

A smilier demo was shown a few months back using another mobile os. Hope this stuff takes off.

ince, this is the future standart

[@mondobytes]

just think of all of the handicapped and elderly people that can benefit from it right now! Also, you DON'T need to use your voice. I can set it up by Geolocation so when I get home, lights AUTOMATICALLY turn on for me, garage opens and A/C can turn on without me having to even think about it. The problem is people don't grasp this technology and the capabilities so I invite you to watch my upcoming videos to shed some light.

[@GoaMan14]

WOW ! Thats great ! I use NFC and Philips Hue Lightsystem, its nice but your Home Automation is much better..

[@CalvinGoetz]

duuuuude that's ridiculous!! well done armando

[@AnaghNarain]

Your computer looks really awesome. Can you tell me the configuration of your computer, specially the cabinet?

[@shankar_mahadevan]

This is just unbelievable..!! Love Android..

[@-_glowing.redmoon_-]

We did the same thing with nfc tags all over the house with combination of wifi detection. We use speech command at first but stoped because it wasn't reliable.
