The Dynamic Illusion

Holiday homes that remain empty for extended periods often attract unwanted attention. Conventional timer switches turn the lights on at the same time every day – which is easy to figure out. SimLiveSecurity relies on dynamic simulation: Instead of a rigid program, the system varies both the times and the type of activities.

For instance, on one day the living room light might come on in the late afternoon, while the next day it might not turn on until dusk. This is complemented by soft everyday sounds, such as the hum of a radio or the sound of a door closing. These are played irregularly and at varying volumes. The goal: The house appears occupied even when the owners are far away.

The system is supplemented by an interactive 360-degree camera. This allows owners to check their holiday home while on the move, provided the technical requirements are met on-site. SimLiveSecurity is intended as a visible preventive measure and is designed to complement other security technology. However, it does not guarantee protection against break-ins and does not replace emergency services or professional security services when these are required.

Thus, the simulation becomes an inconspicuous yet effective method to minimize risk – through the illusion of everyday life.
