I’m taking your “but” to mean “it is acceptable.
I would at least deem it noticeable to wait a quarter second for my light to turn on. May just be my own impatience, but I get an insta-headache whenever I have to wait to find out whether something worked or I have to try again. Every bit of jank is a downgrade in quality of life to me.
Now: May this be due to that specific setup or is the delay somehow inherent to the technology?
- ramses0 2mo agoIn many situations you're already "latent" due to interacting via voice: "Hey Siri, turn on the lights" is ~3-4 seconds to say casually, allow another 0.5-1.0 seconds due to voice processing, network, etc, and the missing 200ms is basically par for the course. Where it starts to get annoying is "door open" and "motion detected" triggers. Motion detected can be played off as a sloppiness in the sensor cone, but going from "instant" to "laggy video game" when you have a physical trigger can be relatively annoying.
