Home Automation Blog

Switching focus from automation into home entertainment isn’t that big of a jump bearing in mind most people (not counting us) almost certainly began their exploration for lighting through a remote control to make the entire in-house theatre experience complete. Maybe it’s just me but the computer programmed remote controls are a key device and we now own one for every one of our house’s LCDs. Especially since I never watch that live programming style of watching at all, there is almost always so many receivers and the like to turn on and it wasted my time picking up the first control then the next until all the devices were on, just to reverse the process once the movie was done.

The other thing is, the integration of lighting control with home theatres is moving increasingly common each week with some of the more innovating home automation places offering IR transmit and receive from a automation system now and because of this one can then perform actions we couldn’t do before like scripting a receiver which is in an adjacent room of the house using your remote house tool. There’s a ton to learn, though it is clarified more completely here ISY-99i when compared to other blogs so it is definitely a good site which is worth checking out.

I love that he is way too enthusiastic when discussing automation devices.
