Q: I saved a 70" touchscreen from recycling—what can I use it for if I hang it on the wall?

Q: Could it work as a smart home control panel?

A: Yes! Make it your home’s command center:

  • Control smart devices – Adjust lights, thermostats, and security systems via touch.

  • Live home monitoring – Check security cameras, weather, or energy usage at a glance.

  • Voice assistant hub – Pair it with Google Home or Alexa for hands-free control.
