The tour will begin facing the entry door to the bedroom . If you click-and-hold
your mouse on the image, then move your mouse to the right, you'll open to
the main area of our bedroom. If you drag to the left, see the double doors
that go out to our patio, then our bathroom door and on to the dresser.
In the picture above:
- Left inset (items clockwise, from top): The NOAA Weather Alert
clock radio advises us of tornados and bad weather. The iPAQ has remote
control software that can control every home entertainment device in the
entire house. The cordless phones have a built-in intercom and room
monitoring system that allows us to communicate around the house or
around the world.
- Right inset: Our wireless laptops can control every aspect of
the home automation system via a special web page (directly below), as well as perform
vehicle tracking and messaging (second picture below).
This is the homepage for our home automation system.
As you can see, one page shows all relevant information, including
house temperature, mode, and last phone call information.
Subsections allow us to control individual devices, HVAC, music and
other automation systems around the house.
From anywhere in the world, messages can be sent directly to my vehicle.
Because this page is about our "bedroom tech," I've mocked-up a message that
might be sent from the bedroom. Additionally, an address could be sent which
will redirect my GPS system directly to the pharmacy, if the user desires.
