Google IO: 2011: Home Automation

This year Google's 2011 IO conference in San Francisco debuts Google's newest software and technologies. This year along with the new Android store offering movies and TV shows for download, the $20 Chromebook rental for students, and the standard updates for their software Google unveiled an new type of Android system that will interactive with your home and each appliance. The system will be a one-and-one human interface that will allow users to control every aspect of their house with Android access. Systems like this already exist, however they suck. Google's system is different because it is more of a framework and will allow for expansion. It can almost be sought as a central operating system for your home and can be expanded upon. In time we will begin seeing houses that are built around this new framework and provide homes with better homes for the future.
