I agree with your perspective however when I look at younger generations I think there will be a demand for home automation and smart homes in the near future.

They live on their phones and have grown up being glued to them. I believe they will also want to have as much control over their homes as is possible via their phones/tablets.

I think lots of stuff whether it's alarms, blinds, lights, heating etc will all be routinely centralised in one app. This is obviously already happening but it's only going to become more and more standard.

What actually becomes automated is up for debate but it won't hurt to be ahead of the curve.

Will that always be the case though?

As you've said, lots of smart devices are currently making their way into the home.

Will elements of home automation not follow as technology keeps with its consistent advance?

I'm currently taking the comptia network +.

I also plan on doing some RF courses in the new year as this sort of knowledge will definitely come in very handy.

Thanks for your comment I'll be sure to check out HAOS👍

 

Hi all,

I'm in the very early stages of potentially setting up a business in home automation.

I have experience working with my hands in a similar field however I have a lot to learn about ZigBee, zwave and RF technology as a whole. This is my first port of call but I've taken my first steps.

If anyone could direct me toward resources that might be of benifit on my learning journey, I'd really appreciate it.
