The iHabitat system does this by forming a WPAN (wireless personal area network) of the gizmos, the network in turn is connected to the Internet as well. WPANs are very short range self-organizing (read ‘Plug n Play’) wireless networks. Their self-organizing ability makes them easy to deploy: just buy a new device, bring it home and switch it on. That is all you need to do. The user interface for the system is web based and can be accessed from any web enabled device.

The future is going to see more and more devices getting connected to the internet. Practically every gizmo that we own would ultimately get connected to the internet. The applications are endless
