The video below shows a Crestron Home Automation system being used for whole home control in a Beverly Hills estate. This project won four different custom audio video installation awards, including CEDIA's prestigious 'Best Integrated Home (over $1M)' and Crestron's 'Most Extreme Makeover'.
Home Automation systems are sometimes called 'Smart Home' systems or 'Systems Integration'. Whatever the title, they are all referring to intuitive control of your home's subsystems, including audio/video, lighting, security, CCTV, motorized shades & drapes, pool/spa and more. Besides a consistent system-to-system look and feel which makes controlling your home easier, combining these subsystems into a unified control also greatly eliminates wall clutter. Thermostats are hidden in closets or a mechanical room (remote temp sensors stay in the room...there is one above the touchscreen in this video) and backup security keypads and pool/spa controllers can likewise be hidden.
