Understanding Home Automation (Smart Homes)
With the advancement of time and technology, we have become more smart
and responsible towards our lives. So, now, even for the smallest things, we
decide based on the long term profit that we are going to achieve from the
same. Needless to say, for a decision as big as buying a home, which, in most of
the cases is a once in a lifetime affair, we all become extremely careful. We think
about various parameters like rate, location, special features, amenities etc.,
which can be proved as beneficial for ourselves in the coming years.
In this context, a new concept that is getting heaps of attention these days, is
automated homes, or smart homes. Through Home automation one get to
seamlessly control all the aspects of their home. Each and every electrical
appliance in the "Smart Home" can be integrated into the "Home Automation"
Network. So no more switching on the lights bulbs or shutting down the
computer. The system will take care of it all. It is sort of like magic. Step into a
room and the all the lights and AC will be switched on. Step out and it will be
turned off. Well AC is good in summer but what about when the mercury dips?
Nothing to worry, just like magic it will know when to switch it on and when
not to. Having over a guest at home while at office? Through home automation
technology one can actually open the gates, switch on the lights and AC and
make the guest feel comfortable while working at office.
A home blessed with automation technology, not only make our lives easier, it
also works wonders for reducing the maintenance and energy costs. Just by a
single click on our smart phones or our tabs, with which we are clung most of
the times, we can literally control all the devices of our homes and the cost
includes just the initial installation cost along with a nominal maintenance cost.
Needless to mention, apart from 'controlling' the home, we can also keep a close
look on the home, ensuring the safety and security of the home while we are
away. Also, as the simple but often forgotten tasks like switching on/off of
electronic devices can be monitored and done remotely, installing the
technology in our homes ensures energy efficiency as well.

We are living in the world of automation where most of the systems are getting
automated, such as industrial automation, homes and other business sectors.
Home automation systems are advancement to the mechanization processes
wherein human efforts are needed with the machinery equipments to operate
various loads in homes. It involves automatic controlling of home appliances
using different technologies and controllers over desktops, laptops smart
phones or tablets.
How it works ?
Home automation system makes the operations of various home appliances
more convenient and saves energy. With the energy saving concept, home
automation or building automation makes life very simple nowadays. It
involves automatic controlling of all electrical or electronic devices in homes or
even remotely through wireless communication. Centralized control of lighting
equipments, air conditioning and heating, audio/video systems, security
systems, kitchen appliances and all other equipments used in home systems is
possible with this system.
Actuators are the final controlling devices like limit switches, relays, motors
and other controlling mechanisms which finally control the home equipments.

Here is a closer look at some of the biggest benefits that home automatiomn
provides.
Savings : Smart thermostats and smart light bulbs saves energy , cutting utility
costs over time. Some home automation monitor water usage, helping to
prevent exorbitant water bills.An automated home shuts off lights when no one
is around, limits the power drained to your electronics when they are not being
used , and keeps the temperature comfortable in the most energy efficient
manner possible.
The department of Energy estimates that air conditioning is responsible for
54% of the home’s energybill alone. Studies have shown that smart thermostats
