What is Home Automation?
Simply put, home automation is when various smart equipment, gadgets and devices at home are controlled using an interface through voice commands, or a mobile app. In some cases, products can even learn your daily routines and act accordingly without any manual intervention.
Through home automation, users can control a wide variety of devices ranging from temperature, cctv cameras, door locks, fire alarm systems, to even entertainment systems.

Your air-conditioning senses the ambient temperature of the room and increases the temperature of the room, your door lock sensor recognizes any visitors, and your geyser activates automatically because it knows how much you love your morning showers.
This is not a fantasy, this is an alliance between humans and machines. The future of living is will be enabled by home automation.
