“Home automation” refers to the automatic and electronic control of household features, activity, and appliances. In simple terms, it means you can easily control the utilities and features of your home via the Internet to make life more convenient and secure, and even spend less on household bills.

 

The purpose of home automation is to make homes simpler, better, or more accessible. Just about every aspect of the home can be automated, if you can imagine it, it may be possible. Home automation is not one technology, it's the integration of multiple technologies into one system.
