AT&T announced expanded launch plans for its newest home automation and security product, Digital Life, from eight to 15 markets beginning this spring. AT&T will continue to launch the product in new markets nationwide, with plans of reaching 50 markets by the end of 2013.
“We've been building AT&T Digital Life with the intent to establish a strong position in an industry ripe with potential to connect customers to their homes in a game-changing, wireless-centric experience,” said Kevin Petersen, Senior VP for Digital Life, AT&T.
The core of the home automation product is a complete security solution. Through 24/7 monitoring centers, professionals will alert police and fire authorities of emergencies, along with customers, including details on where home incidents occurred. Clients can choose from security features such as window sensors, glass break detectors, carbon monoxide sensors and more.
In addition, people can easily manage and control security and automation devices by setting up programs and alerts. For instance, customers will receive motion detection notices from front porch video cameras, or program the system to switch on lights, unlock the door and change the thermostat when the garage door opens. The digital wireless platform allows flexibility with the sensors and services available to customers, which include water leak, smoke sensors, thermostats for managing energy, wirelessly-controlled door locks, video cameras, and others.
