With the dawn of the IoT (Internet of Things) era the large-scale & more traditional style of home automation & control systems is coming to an end. Technology manufactures  are now making their products smaller, faster, more powerful & most important more affordable than ever before. The savings on technology solutions will not only let the homeowner invest in other parts of their home, but will also make it more accessible for everyone to have a "Smart" or "Connected" home or business.
