After a long and busy day, all we want to do is return to a comfortable home. Smart technology can turn any home into a nicer place to live.Smart homes have been around for some time. Scottish company Pico Electronics invented a type of technology called X10 in 1975. It allows household devices (家用设备), such as lights and alarms, to communicate with each other by using radio waves (无线电波), according to AVSytemsMag, a specialized magazine in the audiovisual (AV, 视听的) and automation industry.Of course, 5G network connectivity has made smart homes much more sophisticated (复杂的) than X10. Perhaps the most widespread smart home technology is the voice-activated assistant (语音激活助手). Google Home and Amazons Alexa allow users to interact with nearly any device in their home simply by speaking a few words. This is especially convenient for children and people with physical disabilities, as they can finish tasks that would normally be too difficult, according to How-To Geek.Common household appliances (家用电器) can become “smart” as well. For example, a smart trash bin can keep track of the things youve thrown away and place an online order for new items, while smart refrigerators can create dinner recipes (菜谱) based on the vegetables that are being kept inside, according to HowStuffWorks.But its not just about convenience. Smart homes are also good for the environment. By regularly checking your energy use and automatically (自动地) turning off lights and other devices that youre not using, smart homes can lower how much electricity you use overall. Using less energy means that we use fewer natural resources, which is good for the environment.1. X10 technology allows household devices to communicate by _.
