Why is home automation such a big industry? How is it accomplished? Where is it going?
Green building
Finally, a reminder, WHY it is soooo cool… Innovative “smart” ideas
The 3 C’s: Convenience
Accessibility from anywhere with internet connection Laziness factor Nikola Tesla – 1898 – first patented remote control
First used for military
Control Manage anything that is hooked up – alarms, etc. Efficient use of systems – radiant heat example
Cool Pride factor
