Internet of Things Lowe’s, the home improvement retailer, is giving up on the smart home market. The company is putting its Iris Smart Home business up for sale as part of a reorganization. The retailer made a big splash at CES 2015 with its Innovation Lab offerings, which included retail service robots and the Holoroom “home improvement simulator.” The Iris product line includes multiple Iris-branded products for the home, along with products from Bosch, First Alert, General Electric, Honeywell, Nest Labs, Swann, and other manufacturers. The Iris Smart Hub ties it all together.
