Sensors

Standard Equipment

There are many different staples when it comes to smart homes. The following sensors are relatively common and each smart home could have dozens of each. Here are a few ideas of where they are used.


Central Controller

The Heart of Your Smart Home

At Domain Dynamics, we make smart home technology simple, powerful, and clutter-free. Our compact central controller runs your entire smart home — no bulky server racks or tangled cables required. It’s small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, but smart enough to manage everything from lighting and temperature to security and entertainment.

We specialize in wireless solutions that keep your space clean and renter-friendly. Many of our sensors can also act as connection points, helping your system stay strong and responsive throughout your home — even in those hard-to-reach areas.

Don’t let its size fool you. This little powerhouse can connect to countless smart devices and handle your custom automations in an instant. Want your lights to turn on when you walk in, or your shades to close when the sun sets? Our controller makes it happen — effortlessly and reliably.

Contact Sensors

Automate Your Awareness

Is that window still open? Did someone forget to close the back door after letting the dog in? Or maybe the freezer in the garage didn’t get shut all the way?

With smart contact sensors from Domain Dynamics, you’ll always know what’s happening in your home — without needing to double-check. Strategically placed sensors keep track of doors, windows, and other important spots, sending instant notifications to your phone or even a spoken alert through your smart devices.

So when something’s left open, or a door isn’t closed before your system arms itself, you’ll know right away. It’s another way we help you Automate Your Domain — keeping your home smarter, safer, and stress-free.

Motion Detection

The Unsung Hero of Your Smart Home

A motion detector might not get much attention, but it quietly makes everyday life smarter, safer, and more convenient.

Picture this — a soft night-light turns on automatically as you walk through the hallway at 2 a.m., guiding you safely past the sleeping dogs. Or when someone steps onto your porch, your patio light turns on and your door camera starts recording instantly.

Motion detectors can even help you keep an eye on activity inside your home — like knowing whether the kids are still in the playroom, with some sensors even detecting how many people are present.

It’s small, smart, and always working behind the scenes to help you Automate Your Domain.

Lights

Light Up Your Lifestyle

When it comes to smart homes, lighting is one of the most versatile tools of all — and one of the most fun to automate.

Picture string lights outside your home that dance through the night in colors that match the season. Inside, imagine your living room lights turning on with your morning alarm, gently dimming as the sun rises, and coming back to life when it’s time to unwind.

Smart lighting can even act as a silent messenger — flashing to let you know when the laundry’s done, or giving you that friendly reminder that it’s time to leave for football practice.

At its simplest, color-adjustable bulbs can shift from bright, natural white during the day to warm, soft yellow at night — creating comfort, ambiance, and energy savings with every change.

It’s lighting with purpose — and another bright way to Automate Your Domain.

Power

Make Every Device a Smart One

Not every appliance or lamp in your home needs to be brand new to be smart — and that’s perfectly okay. Some things just work the way you like them, and we get that.

With smart power monitors, you can bring everyday items to life. Turn lamps on and off automatically, get a notification when the washing machine finishes a load, or even have your coffee pot start brewing right before you walk into the kitchen.

It’s the perfect way to blend what you already love with the convenience of modern automation — proving that even “dumb” devices can be brilliant when you Automate Your Domain.

Cameras

See What Matters Most

“I spy with my little cameras…” — a package arriving at the front door, the chickens roaming out back, and someone hard at work in the garage.

With smart cameras from Domain Dynamics, you can keep an eye on what’s important — anytime, anywhere. Capture photos when you need them, or upgrade to full video recording to help protect your home or small business.

We install and set up a variety of camera types to fit your needs — from solar-powered cameras that stay online without wires, to pan-and-tilt models with built-in privacy modes that pause when the family’s home.

It’s peace of mind made simple — another way to Automate Your Domain.

Specialty Equipment

Some equipment isn’t for everyone. Some are a bit more specific, or niche, to users that want more. This may be “power users” in the home, or small to medium businesses and industrial locations.


Custom Sensors

Smart Solutions for Every Situation

The sky’s the limit when it comes to what your home can do. Want the movie to pause the moment you leave the couch? Curious about who’s in each room without checking manually? Or need specialty fall sensors to keep loved ones safe? We can make it happen.

At Domain Dynamics, no problem is too unusual. If a sensor or solution doesn’t exist yet, we may need to invent a custom way to meet your needs.

Your home can be safer, smarter, and more responsive than you ever imagined — letting you Automate Your Domain.

Door Locks

Smart Access, Simplified

Say goodbye to fumbling for keys and worrying about who has access to your home. With smart door locks from Domain Dynamics, you can lock and unlock doors remotely, grant temporary access, and manage entry — all from your phone.

For short-term rentals or guest homes, unique access codes make it easy to welcome visitors without ever handing out a physical key. You can set codes to work only during a specific stay, then expire automatically, keeping your property secure and hassle-free.

Whether it’s family, friends, or guests, smart locks give you peace of mind, convenience, and full control — another simple way to Automate Your Domain.

Motion Control

Precision in Motion

Smart homes aren’t the only places automation shines — motion control can bring precision and efficiency to industrial settings too. Using linear actuators, machines and equipment can move exactly where they need to, while encoders and laser sensors measure positions with incredible accuracy.

Whether it’s adjusting machinery, monitoring movement, or ensuring parts are perfectly aligned, these technologies give you complete control over every motion. By automating repetitive or complex tasks, you save time, reduce errors, and increase productivity.

From industrial machinery to custom automation projects, Domain Dynamics helps you harness motion in smart, reliable ways — so you can Automate Your Domain with confidence.

Industrial Controllers (PLCs)

Powering Bigger Ideas

When you need more control, a standard smart home controller might not be enough — that’s where a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) comes in. With multiple inputs and outputs, a PLC can manage complex machines, coordinate processes on a small factory floor, or oversee any system that demands precision and reliability.

For even greater capability, a full desktop computer can be added to handle optimizations, data analysis, and advanced automation, giving you smarter insights and smoother operations.

Whether it’s running equipment, monitoring processes, or integrating multiple systems, Domain Dynamics provides the tools and expertise to bring your ideas to life — helping you Automate Your Domain, no matter the scale.
