Home automation refers to the use of internet-connected 'smart home' devices -- such as thermostats, lighting, locks, cameras, and voice assistants like Amazon Alexa or Google Home -- to remotely or automatically control household functions. Enthusiasts and professionals in this space work with platforms like SmartThings, Home Assistant, or Apple HomeKit to design systems that improve convenience, energy efficiency, and security. It draws hobbyists interested in electronics, programming, and DIY installation as well as professional installers and integrators.
