Smart Home, the present and the future

In a recent survey, Smart home automation household penetration is to be doubled by 2022. Home automation is even very popular in new construction. Builders are adding smart home technology to the newly builds. Why? Having this home automation system installed increases the resale value of the property. And also the cost of technology is easily rolled into a mortgage.

A “Smart device” vs a “Smart home”

A smart device is any product that’s connected to the internet that allows you to control and monitor it from anywhere using your smartphone, tablet or computer. A smart home is where these smart devices are aware of each other and work together.

Challenges in a modern home today

Most of these homes today have 3 to 5 electronic devices that do not integrate with each other because they are not made by the same company and have different apps on the same network which are connected to the internet but are not interconnected.  Some of the examples of some smart devices in the market today are smart media player, smart speaker, smart light bulb,  smart thermostat, smart door lock. So to solve the problem we need a uniform platform where all these devices speak to the platform.
