Home technology helps conserve energy
Cyber Homes has developed a number of specific energy-saving features as part of their service to home-owners, architects, interior designers and developers.
NOW YOU SEE IT - NOW YOU DON'T.
The home cinema system on show features a 92 inch screen that descends at the touch of a button at the same time as a fully automated projector.
The cinema's sound system includes discrete in-ceiling speakers.
The multiroom audio/visual system includes full 7.1 THX surround sound.
The Cyberhomes team introduce Blu-Ray DVD - a high definition video format.
They also demonstrate how to integrate lighting, audio and video into one user-friendly remote control.
SHOWERPROOF.
A wall-mounted waterproof 'Aquavision' Tile TV, designed for bathrooms, demonstrates the multiroom audio/visual system.
When not in use this TV becomes a functioning mirror.
An in-wall iPod docking station allows music from an iPod to be played anywhere in the house.
The iPod's menu can be seen and controlled on any plasma/LCD or touch screen around the property.
Curtains and blinds in the showroom are opened and closed using remote controls and touch panels.
SECURE AT HOME.
Controlling - arming and disarming - the home security system is easily done using a touch panel or by text message or telephone from a remote location - the office or on holiday or even from an armchair.
When an alarm is activated and an intruder is detected the security system is set to turn the lights on and the home-owner and Police notified.
The Cyberhomes showroom also features 'intelligent' lighting that can turn on and off to give the impression that the house is occupied when it is not.
The showroom technology also demonstrates how the lighting and other hi tech features can be controlled to help save energy.
The Cyberhomes Limited team are Ion Smith and Andy Mack with James Misselbrook advising on sales and marketing.
Cyberhomes Limited is a member of CEDIA (custom Electronic and Design Installation Association) that sets the highest standards for custom installers.
