Next stage of my home automation is to have a few tablets mounted to the wall to allow some device control - close curtains, turn on/off lights, see temperature sensor data.

I’d like to be able to CAD draw the floor layouts and then add the icons from the device view and overlay the floorplan. Swipe for next floor. Live devices so I can see which lights are on etc. Actually thinking about it, it would be really cool if that room actually lit up when the light was on.
