Home automation uses and combines the advantages of electronic and computer means, in order to obtain an integrated use and management of the different equipment of a building, whether residential or commercial. For handling the system, you can do it according to your own needs or you can choose a more or less automatic handling.
In passive operation, an element reacts only when an order is given to it, given directly by the user, therefore using the available resources: push button, touch panels or remote controls.
In automatic, more advanced and more intelligent operation, the system not only interprets parameters, but reacts to circumstances (information that is transmitted by the sensors). For example, detecting that a window is open and notifying the user, or that the temperature is decreasing and turning on the heating.
