Kuya ngokuya kuvame ukuthola amadivayisi ahlakaniphile emakethe asisiza nsuku zonke, kusuka kumalokhi ahlakaniphile avulekayo lapho sifika ekhaya, izicabha ezivulekayo ezizibonela ukuthi ngubani osemva komnyango ... Kodwa kubonakala sengathi enye yamadivayisi aphumelele kakhulu, ikakhulukazi e-United States, ama-thermostats ukulawula ukushisa kwekhaya lethu.
Isidleke saba esokuqala, okungenani esibe nempumelelo enkulu eminyakeni yamuva kulo mkhakha, yingakho iGoogle yathatha izintambo. Kepha akuyona inketho kuphela. Emakethe kunabakhiqizi abaningana abanamadivayisi afanayo kepha abakakubonanga ukubaluleka kwalokhu. IMicrosoft ifuna ukuntshontsha okubonakalayo kuNest futhi ngisanda kwethula i-thermostat ephethwe yiCortana ebizwa nge-GLAS.
Ngokungafani namanye amadivayisi, i-GLAS, njengoba le thermostat isibhabhadisiwe, ihlanganisa iCortana nengaphakathi layo, ukuze kungadingeki ukuthi sisebenzisane nayo nge-smartphone noma ngokukhethekile nge-touch screen yayo, kepha futhi singakwenza ngomyalo wezwi. Ukwakha le divayisi IMicrosoft isebenzisane neJohnson Control, inkampani enamadivayisi amaningi anjalo emakethe.
Ngaphakathi kwe-GLAS sithola isistimu yokusebenza yamadivayisi walolu hlobo, Windows 10 IoT Core, idivayisi esisinikezayo imininingwane ngekhwalithi yomoya, amazinga okushisa angaphandle nangaphakathi, ukusetshenziswa kwamandla…. cishe imisebenzi efanayo noma iyiphi i-thermostat yalolu hlobo esinikeza yona, kepha ngomehluko wokuthi singayiphatha ngemiyalo yezwi. Okwamanje asazi ukuthi kuhlelwe ukuthi iye nini emakethe nokuthi izotholakala kumaphi amazwe, kepha njengoba sibonile kwividiyo yokwethula ibukeka iyinhle kakhulu.
