    Why not just fit Thermostatic Radiator Valves? [TRV] or do you want to control from afar?

    For them to be Smart, then need to be able to contact the boiler controller to call for heat - otherwise they can only reduce heat  ( relative to the system thermostat)
    p.s.  TRVs should also not be used in a room which already has the system thermostat installed
