I recently saw a house on that house makeover show which probably made me stare – It was crazy home automation and had done a thorough job setting things up. Close to every light knew what the other was doing and since this was an extreme case the showers as well as the gazebo roof were fully integrated.
I always liked basic home automation for what seems like forever but I hadn’t even dreamed about something this advanced, it was amazing and truly remarkable.
I’ve thought about having our condo do cool things such as adjusting the temperature for each room or displaying the news in the bathroom mirror. Some of this stuff is most realistically a couple years in terms of general accessibility (although there are people that are doing it) though stuff such as lighting and music for different moods or events are well within reach and inexpensive now. I think I need to convince the wife...... after which she can hold responsible the link where it all started: Insteon switch

Making the jump starting with automation to in-house theatres isn’t that much of a jump in view of the fact that lots of users (myself included) almost certainly began their quest for control of lights using a integrated control unit to make the full theatre room replica perfect. I feel the AMX controllers have turned out to be a favorite item and we now own one for each of our house’s tv’s. When you consider that I almost never do the non-PVR style of watching at all, there is constantly at least a couple entertainment systems to turn on and it wasted my time using the first clicker followed by the next in line until everything was ready, just to repeat the process after we were finished.
The other thing is, the combination of home automation with entertainment is inching more realistic by the day with almost all of the more innovating home automation places prototyping UHF commands from any home network as of late and because of this one can then do things such as scripting a mp3 system that’s clear across the condo with just one’s RF Zwave device. Neat stuff, though the details are described more completely here ISY-99i review when compared to other technology sites so it is definitely a good location which won’t make you feel dumb.
The writer there is way too enthusiastic when reviewing this stuff.
