I am thinking about Beoliving Intelligence / KHIMO and wonder what benefits the box can offer me?
What can I control in detail via Beoliving?
Are there some good examples / use cases for Beoliving Intelligence?

I own different Bang&Olufsen NL products and TVs in different rooms (no Masterlink products anymore). I currently use Philips Hue for my light source control and Netatmo for heating and camera / security control. Both providers are integrated via Apple Home and I am trying to implement my first scene control with Siri.

Good question. I was wondering the same lately. It seems you can use intelligente to connect to Philips Hue hub and smart video camera's to be controller by beo app and remotes. Provably also option to build routines combining audio video and lightning commands.

I have a similar setup / use similar equipment.

I talked to my B&O dealer a few months ago. He told me that Beoliving / khimo is something for professional home automation systems based on e.g. KNX or EIB. For home automation „toys“ like Apple HomeKit I should save my money, it gives no additional benefits.
