The Logitech Harmony Line Now Works with Amazon Alexa
Home entertainment systems tend to be complicated to control, but the new Amazon Alexa skills available through the Logitech Harmony line of controllers make it easy for anyone to take control of the night's viewing options. Logitech Harmony controllers can now take control of one's home entertainment system with voice commands enabled through one's Amazon Alexa-enabled devices.
The skills available through Harmony controllers range from simple to more intricate. The device can control basic aspects of one system, such as turning it on and off, controlling the volume, and changing to specific channels. However, users can also pre-program different 'Activities'. For example, users can put together a 'Movie Night' command that simultaneously turns the TV to a movie channel, dims the lights, and turns up the volume.
