Automate and control every appliance or device in your home whether you are there or miles away in an entirely different country. This automation works efficiently for saving money on utilities and providing convenience overall.
Lighting
Have the ability to manage the lights from wherever you are in the world. Control each individual lights that are in different parts of the home all from a console by your own bed, car, kitchen, or even poolside from some resort at the other side of the planet. With this automation, you have full authority over the lighting of your home from where ever you are. Turn a few lights on so making it look as if someone is home. Turn them off in the morning.
Cameras
Cameras are the staple of business and home security for many years but advancements in the technology have permitted for improvements in sensors, optics and other special features such as being able to view your property remotely. Log into the camera system and view in real-time, various areas of the home or business while you are absent. Reposition, rotate, record, zoom closer, and snap photos all with the click of your mouse on your laptop. You can even go further; have the camera record at a particular time. Even allow it to automatically snap picture when it senses movement. Cameras actually have a vast amount of features that are unique to monitor any of your property.
Security Systems & Access Control
Open a garage door remotely or unlock/lock a certain door within the house all from your laptop. With an automated home system, your house is able to contact you, send an alert when a security issue has occurred. It might be gas-leak, trespasser, or sudden temperature rise – home automation stays on guard for you.

You should automate your home second to save on utilities by leaving things off when you are gone turning them on when you start for home. Third for convenience, your coffee can be made for you in the morning and your favorite music is on when you get home in the evening – with something already cooking in the oven.
