Home Smart Home

Tim Shriver likes to talk to his house. "Turn the porch light on at 3 p.m.," he says through an intercom to the female voice that belongs to his house. She confirms that she will make sure the light comes on as instructed. "Open my shopping list, and add apples, bananas and bread," he continues. She assures him she will update the shopping list, as well. As CEO of Home Automated Living, Shriver has a completely automated house.
