The Internet of Things (IoT), the latest buzzword du jour, refers to the idea of connecting everyday objects to the Internet and thus allowing them to communicate with one another. From controlling your lights and thermostat to your smart fridge telling you when an item is about to expire, the application of the concept varies and some predict it will generate the next wave of consumer technology purchases.

By the year 2020 the number of Internet connected appliances, sensors, and other things will grow to as many as 50 billion devices.

Building a custom home today is just as much about incorporating plumbing and electrical systems as it is about including whole house audio, climate control systems and lighting control. Builders across the country have taken note that today’s new construction will most often be a smart home, and if you are in Miami, Ft. Lauderdale or Deerfield Beach, Spectrum Technology Integrators is here to help.

A national consumer survey found that 46 percent of consumers believe it is important for their current home or next home they purchase to be equipped with home automation.
