Home automation is a bit of a paradox. It’s all inspired by selective laziness. Such is mankind’s obsession with tools, that we will go through all kind of trials, and spend hours drudging, tinkering and designing, to create a labour-saving device. No more exhausting light switches!
But this is nothing new. Through the ages we’ve come from bonfires, to burning torches, to oil lamps, to light bulbs, so it’s in our nature to try to find the next innovation to make things easier and cleaner.
