Abstract: A smart home device including an input interface; a communication interface configured to communicate with a server and at least a first target device; and a processor configured to control the communication interface to communicate with the server using a first communication protocol to receive first target device format information describing a first communication control device format for communicating and controlling the first target device to perform a first operation, receive a first control command for communicating with and controlling the first target device input from the input interface, control the communication interface to communicate with the first target device using a second communication protocol different than the first communication protocol, wherein the first target device does not communicate with the server using the second communication protocol, convert the first control command into a format described by the first target device format information, and transmit the converted first control command to the first target device to control the first target device to perform the first operation.
