 +====== Overview of protocols for home automation ======
 +//**Bluetooth Low Energy**// 
  
-====== References ======+Bluetooth low energy (BLE) was specially designed for the Internet of Things (IoT).  
 +It implements low energy functionality which makes it perfect for devices that utilize energy harvesting or batteries.  
 +Major operating systems and hardware architectures support BLE which  
 +enables its deployment for a broad range of devices, from home appliances to smart wearables and sensors. 
 +//Key technology differentiators://  
 +  * Simple star topology reduces implementation complexity significantly; 
 +  * Small low-cost CMOS ICs for BLE TX/RX;  
 +  * Robust physical layer; 
 +  * Secure through 128 bit AES encryption; 
 +  * Very low power – designed to be asleep (~100 μAh per day means 4-years of battery life from coin cell battery) 
 +  * No competitors (Bluetooth is already in the most of HW/SW architectures)
  
 +
 +//**Insteon**// 
 +
 +Insteon is a home automation technology that enables switches, lights, thermostats, sensors, remote controls, 
 +and other electrically powered devices to interoperate.
 +  * Since 2005, Insteon devices communicate over both power lines and wireless, this, to ensure multiple pathways for messages to travel; 
 +  * Insteon is X10 compatible, meaning that users can add wireless capability to an existing X10 network; 
 +  * This is an effective and cost-efficient way to make a full-blown transition to wireless; 
 +  * Insteon technology also supports home automation novices so that non-technical individuals can set up and add devices to the network; 
 +  * Insteon devices don’t have to be “enrolled” in the home automation network; they join the network as soon as they’re powered up, simplifying installation; 
 +  * Insteon’s dual-band mesh network turns all powerline-operated devices into repeaters, greatly extending signal range.
