(Telecompaper) Deutsche Telekom will introduce its "Secure Auto Cloud" at the IFA consumer electronics show. An exhibit featuring a connected BMW i3 and the QIVICON house will allow visitors to experience driver and vehicle-based services designed to deliver more safety, energy efficiency and comfort. With connected homes and cars, drivers will be able to control elements such as lights remotely from on the go with the smart home app. The new version is available for download now. In addition, BMW owners can turn a variety of devices on and off with smart home integration. They can receive warnings if a window or patio door is opened, for example, or if a smoke alarm, motion sensor or water detector is triggered while they are out. The control display in the BMW dashboard shows all relevant information from the home, along with a live feed from the security camera. The system also responds to the vehicle's location. When the smart home app detects that the car is approaching the home, for example, it can deactivate the alarm system and activate personal settings.
