What is Home Automation?

• Home automation is the residential extension of
  building automation and involves the control and
  automation of lighting, heating, ventilation, air
  conditioning (HVAC), appliances, and security.
  Home automation takes the mundane, day-to-day
  activities involved in managing your home and
  leaves them to a computer, freeing you up to kick
  back and relax.
