With HomeKit, you get compatibility, security, and the ability to use the company's Siri virtual personal assistant to activate it, all with a few words from your voice.</p> <p>There are currently five home automation products that you can buy which will work with HomeKit; here they are!  </p> <h2>Caséta Wireless Lighting Starter Kit</h2>  <p>Lutron's Caséta Wireless Lighting Starter Kit includes the HomeKit-enabled Caséta Wireless Smart Bridge: It, combined with wireless Lutron lights, lets you control a specific lamp, room, or house. As such, you can make sure the light in the kitchen is off — or even all your lights are off — even if you're not in those rooms. Caséta Wireless can also control the Lutron Serena remote-controlled shades along with select thermostats.</p> <p>Available at the Apple Store starting June 2. Also available online from Amazon, Home Depot, Lowes, and Staples, and in-store at Home Depot and Magnolia Design Centers.</p> <ul><li>$229.95 - Order now</li> </ul><h2>Insteon Hub</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-are-all-homekit-accessories-buy-now' title="Here are all the HomeKit accessories you can buy first!

Quickly build scenes and adjust several devices at once, along with scheduling scenes to repeat on specific days, weeks, or dates. There's even a comprehensive dashboard view so that you can easily see and control your home automation system.</p> <p>Available for pre-order at Amazon and Smarthome starting June 2; in retail stores by early July.</p> <ul><li>$149.99 - Pre-order now</li> </ul><h2>Elgato Eve</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-are-all-homekit-accessories-buy-now' title="Here are all the HomeKit accessories you can buy first!

Eve Room lets you monitor indoor air quality, temperature, and humidity, all measured by a sensor that analyzes volatile organic compounds (VOC). Eve Weather keeps track of outside temperature, and air pressure; Eve Door & Window lets you monitor whether your doors and/or windows are open or closed, and monitor stats for time and duration; and Eve Energy tells you how much power your appliances are using. All of these products can be controlled in the Elgato app or with Siri.</p> <p>Available for pre-order from Amazon and Walmart starting June 2; from the Apple Online Store in July.</p> <ul><li>Various - <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=elgato+eve&tag=imoreb-20&m1k=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Pre-order now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>ecobee3 smart Wi-Fi thermostat</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-are-all-homekit-accessories-buy-now' title="Here are all the HomeKit accessories you can buy first!

As such, you get more granular control and better comfort and energy efficiency in your house.

With HomeKit, you can turn the plug on or off — including with a Siri command — which commands any lights, fans, or other appliances to also turn on or off. You can even group multiple SmartPlugs into a scene to control all the connected accessories in your house by putting them on a set schedule or by using a single command.</p> <p>Available for pre-order from iHome starting June 15; in North American retail stores starting in July.</p> <ul><li><a href="http://www.imore.com/ext?link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jdoqocy.com%2Fclick-7293438-10979158%3Fsid%3Dd_im%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.ihomeaudio.com%252Fdiscover%252Fsmart_plug%252F" title="" rel="nofollow">Pre-order now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>More to come</h2> <p>That's just the first wave of HomeKit products.
