So, what makes your home so smart?
Basically, the first generation of smart homes had little to do with intelligence and that was more about remote control and automation.
Today, smart home using IoT(Internet of Things) and data science lives up to the consumer’s expectations and sometimes even exceeds them. Using different sensors, devices, appliances and the whole spaces in your house constantly collect data on how you use them.
The best part of IoT is that you really don’t have to do anything. Smart devices do everything via wireless network.

- Sensor Strips
- smart locks for doors
- Power consumption telemetry
- Wireless power and connectivity
- Solar power surfaces
- Autonomous security
- Automated energy systems
