Home Automation or “Domotics” is the seamless integration of technologies and control software to grant access and control of each aspect of a home automation installation to homeowners. Some of these aspects of home automation technologies are low voltage lighting control systems such as Lutron, Automatic and motorized shading, LCD window shading, HVAC Systems monitoring and control, Audio switching and distribution, video switching and distribution, security systems, surveillance systems as well as intercom systems. Other aspects of some Home automation systems can also include gate access and control, door access control, monitoring and controlling aspects of pool and spa temperature and filtration systems, automated landscape irrigation systems, and so much more!!
Distributing High quality video such as 4K UHD signals and source switching is by far one of the most actively engaging experiences within the automated smart home. Everybody tends to watch TV at some point, and a good control system such as RTI will flawlessly turn needed equipment on such as TV’s, receivers, signal sources such as a Roku or waking up an Apple TV. Utilizing custom programming your specific components are automatically switched to the right inputs, commands are sent to make sure audio signals are being properly decoded and sent the right endpoint, video is being sent in the correct format to the correct endpoint and other options such as drop-down screens or hidden TVs in a wall or lift mechanism is activated properly. In our office one of the options, we have is to use a JVC NX7 4K projector or a LG OLED wallpaper TV. If we choose the TV of course it, the receiver and signal sources are woken up, and set to view High quality UHD 4k video and options for controlling the system appear on our 11-inch KA11 Touch panel. If we choose the projector – a separate set of custom commands are sent to lower the screen, lower the projector out of the ceiling and send audio and video to its appropriate outputs and of course in the correct format for the highest quality video and audio the system can produce…
High performance audio distribution is another basic aspect of home automation system functionality. The ability to stream high quality audio from a smartphone, music server such as Yamaha’s MusicCast system or other streaming service – heck even an old-fashioned turntable, is a definite must in the modern luxury home. Immersive audio components that are woven into the design of your home is our specialty. Some folks want to see speakers as a centerpiece in a room, others just want to hear the music without being able to see where the music is coming from. It is all a choice and an option depending on your needs and personal preferences. We would be happy to consult with your architect or designer to ensure that each element of your distributed music system is placed exactly where it is needed, by the plan to not only deliver the best optical aesthetic, but the best high-quality sound you require!
