Australian housing provider, Casa Capace with Brightlight, launches HomeKit smart homes to enhance disability accommodation
An Australian housing provider, Casa Capace, debuted two HomeKit-equipped homes this week as part of an innovative disability accommodation pilot. For most of us, smart home accessories are just a simple convenience but for the highly-dependent and disabled, smart home technology can be transformative.
Residents can use the Home app or Siri on the HomePod to open doors, raise and lower blinds, adjust the thermostat and more. The pilot program will house six residents across the two newly-built smart homes. If successful, it is likely that more homes in the same manner will be built.
