This thesis chronologically describes the history of the development of smart home devices and their interaction with the users. State-of-the-art in smart housing includes process management (security and surveillance, energy sources, heating and cooling, fire alarm, lighting) and alerts or status information (gas and water permeability on installations and also readings of electricity, gas and water), all of which can be managed via a wireless network on our smartphone, tablet, smartwatch or personal computer. Along with the analysis of critical events, the thesis describes the structure and elements of the control system, which enables the user a complete control over the processes and states in the smart home. The number of processes and states is limited by the number of inputs. The commonly used software and hardware solutions used in smart housing are presented and analyzed. Based on the conducted literature review, recommendations on the future of smart housing are presented in the conclusion.
