Classic
“Definitely a classic. I think this is just the beginning and they are going to evolve to control more and more things in your home.” Jeannie Brendel, Brendel Architects, LLC.

Products and accessories to turn your house into a smart home.

one: Roomba vacuum, by iRobot. Get clean floors without even pushing the vacuum. The Roomba collects dirt and debris from the floor, including under and around furniture and along wall edges.

two: iGrill cooking thermometer, by iDevices. Check the temperature of your meal without getting up from your chair. iGrill monitors food temperature from up to 200 feet away and will alert you when your food is ready.

Scott Mosher, Director of Sales at The SOHO Shop, shares how to get wired.

SLHL: What does a homeowner need to start the process of a home automation system?
Scott: Our systems are designed around a single interface that is the same across any device.  So, we can simply start with a smartphone (from Apple or Android) or a flat panel to provide the basis for a home automation system.  A high-speed Internet connection also helps with features like streaming music and remote access.
