Homey: Home Automation with Speech Recognition [iOS/Android]

In the past few months, we have covered plenty of exciting home automation devices. They pair with your iOS or Android device to enable you to control things in your home. Homey takes it to the next level by allowing its users to control their devices with their voice. You will be able to control your lights, music, and home appliances using Homey.

Homey is pretty smart. It combines your devices and the Internet, so you can turn your lights on when you get home, open your blinds when you need to wake up, pre-heat your food when you are on your way back, and turn down the heat when you leave home. It will work with most of your home appliances and entertainment systems.

Homey has 7 wireless modules that work on various frequencies and protocols. Thanks to its infrared module, you will be able to control older devices. Homey will have an app store. Its companion app will be available for iOS and Android devices. Developers can write code for the device in JavaScript. This exciting gadget is on Kickstarter at this time.
