What My House Does While I Travel

When I am a few thousand kilometres from home, I do not want to wonder whether something was left on. One tap on my phone puts the house into a travel state.

From that moment the heating runs lower, lights stop switching on by themselves, and the security side takes over: the alarm arms itself, motion sensors and cameras stay ready.

If anything unusual happens, I get a message and a recording instead of a surprise when I come back.
