Nowadays technology has influenced our life. How many applications we depend on in our daily tasks ?, with the increase of electrical based devices that increase energy consumption which leads to high cost of energy used the environmental burden of this excess use of energy, but as everything has its two sides technology brings to us a good and sustainable devices and application.
Some of this application was a science fiction before but now it’s reality like the reality I am setting right now to write this article under the light of one of this applications, some of these applications can save energy and decrease the environmental burden and one of them as we called the “Smart Home” this home like any other one, but it has some automation systems and devices that allow the owner to control the house remotely by just a single click on his smartphone.

2- Light bulb “Philips Hue starter kit” this bulb you can turn it off by smartphone and that helps if anyone forgot his home lights on.
3- Motion Sensors, the majority of motion sensors smart systems work on infrared rays, it detects the heat of the human body within and every sensor differs from another in its power and its effective area, Motions sensor can be installed on the electrical grid on the house and turns of the lights when there is nobody in the house and that saves many bills go on the waste of the electrical power.
