The technology that allows for the creation of smart homes includes the use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, which can communicate with each other through a central hub or controller. Smart devices such as thermostats, lighting systems, and security cameras connect to the internet, enabling users to monitor and control their homes remotely via smartphones or voice assistants. Additionally, home automation platforms integrate these devices for seamless interaction and enhanced user experiences. Emerging technologies like artificial intelligence also contribute to smart homes by learning user preferences for further automation.
