One such device actually begins working outside the home, when someone arrives and rings the doorbell.“When someone es to your front door and rings the doorbell, the light can turn on immediately. I get a notification when I’m halfway around the world that someone came, and I can start talking to the person who’s at my front door, and I can say, ‘Oh, here let me let you in.’ I can unlock the door for them very easily.” said Vivint, a smart home service provider.One electronics maker launched a device that lets people see and interact with their animals when they are away. The device, from Petcube, lets you remotely watch and talk to your pet through a personal device, according to a pany official. It can even give the pet a treat—if you approve and order it.For heating or cooling, there is a smart thermostat. This device can also send you a message if a big storm causes leaks or flooding. “We’re trying to catch it with just a few drips before it bees a real big problem,” said Mike Sale of iDevices.A concern for many homeowners is the possibility that someone else might find a way to attack these smart home devices.

Warren Katz from iDevices said his pany employs engineers from the defense industry to help prevent hacking.32. What can be learned about the show?A. It created much attraction to consumers. B.
