Security devices for home automation


We have looked at some of the sensors available for use with Intel Galileo. In this section, we will explore some of the devices already in the market and ready to use with home automation systems.

Motion, window, and door lock sensors

For security, there are many devices out in the market with most of the home automation protocols. Let's first look at door/window sensors and motion sensors. There are door/window sensors with almost all of the home automation protocols. For example, we have the Philio multi-sensor device, which includes a door/window sensor with a magnetic piece to detect whether the door or window is open or closed. You can find the door/window sensor sold separately with your selected home automation protocol to add to your home automation system.

The following image shows the Z-Wave Philio multi-sensor. It is for when door or a window is open. In a home automation system, you can get multiple door/window sensors in your home and can customize...
