Automation and Control of your Home Theater is a very miss interpreted subject since very few know how to do it right. Automating you Home Theater should be simple and straight-forward. You press 1 button and the magic begins; the projector & screen drops into the room, the movie starts playing, the lights slowly dim and the window coverings glide close, silently. Automation is not only to add the "WOW!" factor to your home theater; but rather to extend the functionality of your setup far beyond the walls of your media room.

It can seamlessly integrate all aspects of your home. Security to lighting to HVAC and virtually everything else can be made interdependent. When one system senses or creates a condition that another system can benefit from being aware of, automation makes it happen.
