A new press release states, “Today at CES 2017, Vivint Smart Home, the leading smart home services provider in North America, introduced a comprehensive intelligent home with Sky, the first true smart home assistant. Leveraging artificial intelligence, Sky can automatically manage the connected devices in your home, including your locks, lights, thermostat and security system. ‘Consumers want more than an intelligent device – they want an intelligent home,’ said Matt Eyring, chief strategy and innovation officer at Vivint Smart Home. ‘The real magic comes when multiple devices work together throughout the home in an intelligent way, creating a single, cohesive experience’.”

The release goes on, “Sky takes full advantage of the greater number of sensors and devices that are part of every Vivint smart home system, an average of 14 per home. Sky’s machine learning algorithms use data from these sensors, as well as from mobile devices and system usage, to provide intelligent recommendations and take action to streamline the home experience. The benefits of an intelligent home with Sky include: Worry-free security – With Sky, you can leave your home without worrying if you’ve locked your doors or armed your security system. Sky uses the data from your sensors and devices to understand whether your home is occupied or vacant… Intelligent energy management – Using its advanced occupancy detection and prediction engine, Sky automatically adjusts the temperature to be comfortable when you are home and to conserve energy when you are gone. Intelligent energy management can help save 10 to 15 percent on your monthly heating and cooling costs.”
