These days there are plenty of off-the-shelf home automation ‘solutions,’ but without a home control system (also known as a hub), you mind find yourself with one app for your lights, another for your heating and yet another for your entertainment.Ĭonnectivity is the most important feature of home automation and it represents an idea known as the ‘ Internet of Things’ (IoT). This level of complication defeats the original purpose of home automation by making things more difficult, rather than less. How an automated home could change everything. Internet connected devices, sometimes known as smart devices, have three significant advantages over their traditional counterparts. Gorvold the Looter was a Vrykul Captain of the Winterskorn clan who was buried at Shield Hill, located in the Howling Fjord of Northrend. These are convenience, control and efficiency. Smart devices are convenient because, as the term home automation suggests, certain functions can be automated based on your lifestyle, including your home’s security, lighting and heating. Some devices, such as Google’s much hyped Nest Learning Thermostat, even claim that they can learn from your behaviour and respond accordingly. Smart devices give you control by allowing a more sophisticated level of interaction with your devices. Lights aren’t simply off and on, but on at specific times and fine-tuned to specific levels of brightness.
