AT&T Integrates Home Security and Automation Controls With the Connected Car
Dallas-based AT&T’s innovative connected car platform has the ability to connect to the company’s home security and automation service. It makes AT&T Digital Life the first and only home management system currently integrated with AT&T Drive, reported the company in a press release. This will enable automakers to integrate home security and automation service and pass the benefit on to their customers, so they can manage their home from the Digital Life app through the dashboard control panel and voice recognition of their car.
AT&T Drive is the company’s connected car platform – a modular, global solution that lets automakers pick and choose what services and capabilities are important to them in order to make their solutions different from competitors. From connectivity and billing solutions to data analytics and infotainment, AT&T Drive will allow automakers and developers to create innovative and customized connected car solutions. The integration means the Digital Life app can be accessed through the dashboard control panel or voice recognition of a participating connected car, linking customers to their automation and security features including, door locks, lighting, thermostat and the garage door.
