Yesterday it was the dream of modern living, today the dream has come true. The intelligent house provides not only a roof over our head, but visionary comfort and convenience at the touch of a button. A single operation, for example, can unlock the front door, turn on the light, turn up the heating and raise the Venetian blinds. Whether at home, at the office or on holiday, thanks to Home Automation we can keep our home constantly in our sight and interact with it at any time.
