With Apple continuing to expand and push the capabilities of its HomeKit framework / program to developers and hardware manufacturers alike, it's inevitable that multiple new pieces of hardware will start to hit the market in the coming months. That can actually only be a good thing as we well and truly enter into the "Internet of Things" era, and will serve to offer serious choice for consumers as they embark on an iOS controlled home automation revolution. The recently announced Twist is yet another smart accessory, but one that hasn't yet jumped on the HomeKit bandwagon, choosing instead to rely on an Internet connection and Apple's AirPlay protocol.
