With Aloft&#8217;s new voice-activated system you just have to give Siri the message to switch on the lights, control the air conditioning, put on some music, turn the television on or off etc. They call it \u2018Project Jetson\u2019 and it\u2019s an app that runs on an iPad that controls the room using Apple\u2019s Homekit and Siri.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Voice-activated room<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The voice-activated hotel room comes from the Aloft tech lab.

They will continue to refine the technology behind Project Jetson over the next few months, and if guests reviews are good, it will be made available to the rest of the Aloft hotel network.

If you say \u2018relax\u2019 the lights automatically become warmer and less harsh.
