Smart Home Layout
Smart Home Technology streamlines and simplifies all the technology in your home, offering the ultimate lifestyle of comfort and convenience. Use the interactive demo system below to hover over any system component to gather more information about its use within the home.
*For the purposes of demonstration, this interactive rendering displays many system devices throughout the home, however you can simply use one to control all systems.
Home Control:
If your coffee table is cluttered with six remote controls - and you can’t figure out which ones you need to use to get your Apple TV to work - we’ve got your solution! Smart home control puts an end to remote overload. With one intelligent, reliable and user-friendly device, anyone in your family can operate the entertainment system, lights, thermostats, shades, security, and more.
Lighting Control:
Lighting control allows you to change the mood of any area of your home to suit the occasion. Whether watching TV, dining or entertaining, one press of a button can create the ideal atmosphere you desire. For example, press ‘Goodnight’ to turn all your lights off or “Pathway” to light the way downstairs. Increase safety by linking with the security system to turn all lights on if uninvited activity is detected. Lighting control systems save energy.
Home Theaters and Media Rooms:
Maximize your entertainment system whether you have a precisely designed dedicated home theater or an exhilarating and functional media room. Many spaces in your home from living rooms, family rooms, master bedrooms and outdoor patios can be recreated into a multi-purpose media room, concealing a home theater that only reveals itself at the touch of a button. We can engineer hidden screens and speakers that descend from ceilings, hide inside framed artwork, or rise from specially-designed furniture.
Entry Systems:
Our entry systems can be standalone or integrated into your phone system so that when someone rings the doorbell, your phone rings. You can pick up to speak to the visitor, or press a button to open the gate. Add video capability, and you can see who’s there. Or program your doorbell to pause the music system or provide notification on your TV so you never miss a ring. Access can be controlled with magnetic door locks, biometric fingerprint access, and perimeter barriers such as gate control.
Energy Management:
With real-time monitoring, you can have a dashboard display of your home’s energy usage to see where it’s being used efficiently or inefficiently whether you’re home or away. Control systems optimize energy consumption while maintaining comfort. Easily access and make adjustments of your electrical, water, and gas usage to save energy. See calculated savings and the reduction in your carbon footprint in response to your adjustments from dimming lights or lowering the temperature.
Networking:
A network is a home’s central nervous system for all communications and control. We’ll help lay a solid and reliable foundation that’s robust for today’s technology and for tomorrow’s. We will work with you to find a complete networking solution that satisfies all of your system needs including your TV, telephone, music, security, control system and mobile devices that are connected on the network in a smart home.
Motorized Shading and Drapery:
With motorized window treatments you can easily adjust the amount of daylight in your home to increase comfort, save energy, and protect interiors. Motorized shading and drapery transforms harsh glare into soft pleasing light, enhances privacy while preserving exterior views, reduces solar heat gain, provides UV protection of expensive furnishings and artwork, and provides the ability to change daytime into nighttime for restful sleep. Clients and designers have hundreds of window treatment fabric and color options available to compliment any décor.
Centralized Distribution:
Centralized Distribution allows for complete control and connectivity of your home technology for every room, every application and every budget. The power of total integrated control and seamless connectivity all manifest from one centralized hub. Your home’s beauty is enhanced with less wall clutter and equipment spread throughout. System expansion is easy; every room and each smart device is simply another node on the network which is the backbone of the home.
Mobile Control:
Imagine added convenience using your mobile phone or tablet as a remote for easy control of your smart home automation system. Control multiple locations, such as a primary residence, vacation home and office, from a single, intuitive graphical interface that provides real-time status of room temperature, shade position and lighting levels.
Security and Surveillance:
A safe and secure home for your family needs to be smart enough to alert you when you’re home or away. Preview streaming video from security cameras right on your touch screen display or iPad®, iPhone® or Android™ device. At home, use your touch screen as a video intercom system so you can see who's at the door. While you're away, disarm alarm systems to let in the housekeeper or babysitter, then activate it as soon as they leave.
Media Distribution:
Media distribution systems send audio and video content to any room in your home via a media matrix switcher. Locate your AV equipment out of site, yet distribute the content to all areas of your home without worrying about the clutter of finding a place for local source gear in each room. Control your music and video content from any control interface such as your iPad®, iPhone® or handheld system remote.
