Home Automation Blog

Many times I take satisfaction in my day job, but there are times when the trip to work is enough to force me to resign. One in three are horrible sheeple with not enough attention to the thing in front of them. Adding to this, what happens next? I tipped the stupid coffee just as I pulled in to the parking spot... Whatever.

Going from lighting control over into in-house theatres is not very big of a evolution considering several people (myself included) almost certainly started their journey for lighting control through a integrated control unit to make the entire room-turned-theatre replica complete. In my mind the Logitech remote controls have turned out to be a marvel and we got one for each one of our tv sets. Since we just don’t do the live programming style of watching any more, it seems there’s constantly so many devices to switch on which wasted my time using one control and then the next one until all the devices were on, before we have to repeat the method once the movie was done.

Speaking of remotes, the mixture of home automation and home theatres is moving closer every week with many of the popular producers offering UHF control from a domotics system as of late and as a result anyone with an interest can then do actions we couldn’t do before like switching the station of a radio which could be across the apartment having just one’s handheld house tool. Neat stuff, although it is illustrated more thoroughly here: Zwave devices than some sites so it is definitely a good spot to learn from.
The writer there is borderline psychotic regarding automation devices.
