During the London Web Summit, Alex Hawkinson, founder and CEO of SmartThings, demonstrates for Mobile Reporter how you can transform everyday objects (doors, lights...) into sensors connected to the Internet, that you can then control with your smartphone.
With its cloud-based platform and open standards, SmartThings is betting on the developer and maker communities to get involved and integrate their own devices or apps and help build "an open physical graph".
