I would love to see some real innovation in this area, because i think there is so much that can be done to retrofit every single switch in a current house with something.
I've currently given up because my house has 4 3 or 4-way circuits and there are really only 2 pretty poor choices for 3-way switches, and none that i can find so far for 4-way that don't require you to fully rewire the circuit and then have the controller to fake the 4-way-ness of the circuit.
- zarq 11y agoThe most prominent real innovation I can think of is to not have light switches at all. It should be possible to have some heat/motion detection system hooked up to the lights, so that you don't actually ever have to manually turn the lights on or off any more. For bedrooms, I can even think of something that links to the alarm clock.
- edent 11y agoI did look at using PIR sensors - but the problem is that we quite often want the lights off when we're in a room. For example, watching a movie.
