I am looking to install some touch sensitive switches for my bedrooms. The company I have purchased these from state that I need to install a home automation system which utilises a binary input interface.

I am no expert when it comes to home automation.

The company further states that the world wide KNX system will connect with such switches.

All I am wanting to know is what home automation components do I need to purchase and install so I can operate these touch sensitive switches.

Thanks Jason
