Editor's Notes
When I say smart homes how many of you think of these items?
Well, the Google Home and the Amazon Alexa are indeed a part of smart homes, but they wouldn’t be the only way to describe it.
A good definition for smart homes would be a residence that uses internet connected device to allow remote control.
Or another way to say it is connecting our homes to the internet of things
where devices connected to the internet create an environment where they can be operate together, share data with each other as well as the consumers.
They can also automate actions such as your door can be locked from your phone, or your lights and AC turn on after 7 pm when you arrive home.
I will touch upon several advantages later as well.
Some examples of for implementing smart homes include Philips Hue wifi lights
Smart sockets that connect to wifi
Smart door locks and bells for security
TV and entertainment devices
And usually smart assistants to allow easier control to users

Yet, this wasn’t always the case and starting with the origin of Smart Homes, X-10 should be mentioned
In 1975, Pico Electronics introduced X-10 which used radio frequency bursts onto a home's existing electric wiring to programmable outlets or switches.
These signals convey commands to corresponding devices, controlling how and when the devices operate. A transmitter could, for example, send a signal along the house's electric wiring, telling a device to turn on at a specific time.

Moving on from that point, there were improvements on smart homes and a significant step was Insteon. It introduced technology that combined electric wiring with wireless signals. Other protocols, including Zigbee and Z-Wave also emerged around this time.
Now
One of the most touted benefits of home automation is providing ease to homeowners, allowing them to monitor their homes remotely, countering dangers such as a forgotten coffee maker left on or a front door left unlocked. Home owners can also find it easier to accomplish tasks with the further usage of assistants.
Another important benefit for smart homes is for the elderly who can easily access their home and through automation, allowing them to live more secure and prevent any dangers. Besides the elderly, disabled people also have many advantages where smart homes assist them through increasing their accessibility.
Another great benefit is that users possess a higher level of optimization with different modules and services where they can decide how they wish to automate their devices. Thus, they can save resources and save the environment in the process.
Smart homes still fail to maintain their popularity due to their technical nature. This is caused from their complexity as they are hard to setup or hard to be maintained by everyone. User experience has been relativity negative due to that.
For home automation systems to be truly effective, devices must be interoperable regardless of who manufactured them, using the same protocol or, at least, complementary ones. Currently there is no such system to oversee devices.
Another major issue is smart home security. A 2016 NTT Data Corp. report found that 80% of U.S. consumers are concerned about the security of their smart home data. If hackers are able to infiltrate a smart device, they could potentially turn off the lights and alarms and unlock the doors, leaving a home defenseless to a break-in. Further, hackers could potentially access the homeowner's network, leading to worse attacks or data exfiltration. In October 2016, the Mirai IoT botnet was able to bring down parts of the internet in a series of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks using badly secured cameras, DVRs and routers as entry points.
In addition to security, many smart home opponents worry about data privacy. The NTT Data report found 73% of consumers are concerned about the privacy of the data shared by their smart home devices. While smart home device and platform manufacturers may collect consumer data to better tailor their products or offer new and improved services to customers, trust and transparency are critical to manufacturers building trust with the users of their smart products.
The further implementation of smart buildings
Enterprise, commercial, industrial and residential buildings of all shapes and sizes -- including offices, skyscrapers, apartment buildings, and multi-tenant offices and residences -- are deploying IoT technologies to improve building efficiency, reduce energy costs and environmental impact, and ensure security, as well as improve occupant satisfaction.
Also, the future entails new devices being introduced to the Internet of Things where agreements can be reached among companies to actually create sets of rules and programs to ensure an overall system for smart homes.
In the future, it is also possible to see the rate of unemployment increase due to automation and smart homes will contribute to them as simple tasks as well as house maintenance would done remotely more than ever. Meanwhile, it is possible for tech jobs to increase because of that.
Further advances in smart homes will also cause more dependence on these items and the
