Airstream smart health home to be a reality soon

What if Airstream's good old aluminum caravan turns into an Airstream smart health home? An Airstream smart health home, many dreamed of, the brand did it. When you think of Airstream, the picture in your mind is that of the aluminum trailer that you see in American movies.

Principles of this Airstream smart health home

Its design has hardly changed since the introduction of the Airipper Clipper in 1936. But the interior has evolved over the years. In the latest version, health home automation has finally been integrated.

"We are this iconic, old-fashioned, clunky, industrial product made of riveted aluminum. We know that if we don't keep pace with consumer demands, needs and expectations, we will lose interest, "Airstream CEO Bob Wheeler told Engadget, CEO.

With this in mind, the company introduced Smart Control technology. An awkward name, but a cool new way for campers to control their lights, air conditioning, awning and heating.

The Airstream smart health home app

The app also gives users quick access to the status of their propane tanks and the amount of water they have stored in the trailer. During a quick demonstration at the Los Angeles auto show, the trailer lights turned on and off. The air conditioning was also activated using the "Airstream smart health connected" application.

An AT&T modem not only adds connectivity to the trailer, but also GPS. It allows you to find it when you go hiking. The basic service costs $ 25 per month. It can be added to slightly older models. For unlimited data consumption, the service is offered at a price of 360 dollars per year.

The combination of its iconic history and today's technology is an intelligent initiative by Airstream. In the near future, he hopes to integrate smart speakers like Alexa and others. The system is still at the start of the beta phase; but it all looks very promising.

Airstream is also investigating how studying the behavior of a camper can help the system create a robust profile for that person. For example, the app could tell you (based on your history) how long your battery will last; and if you have enough water to spend time in the desert for three days without any connection.

"Honestly, I bought a Tesla. This is how it all started, "said Bob Wheeler. "If we had the same type of control and easy access via an app for Airstream, it would make even more sense than in your car."
