Nest manufactures one of the leading products for smart home automation. Now a Google product, the Nest has been placed at the forefront of Google’s home automation initiative.
A smart thermostat, it talks to other devices, and can almost be considered an ecosystem of its own right, or a sub-ecosystem. You leave the house – it knows to turn down the heat. Whether you’re upstairs, downstairs, or outside, you’ll be able to control the temperature of your home using just your smart phone or tablet. As an added bonus, it works with Amazon Echo.
