Lighting - LightingControls are probably the most exciting area of our business. Most of our clients are simply amazed at what a few automated dimmers can do, once they allow us to implement a starter system. These systems can be controlled from remotes, the Internet, voice activated or through touch panels.
Some ideas of what can be accomplished:
Security
Never enter a dark house
"ALL ON" in the middle of the night - if an unexpected bump in the night occurs
Security "FLASH/FULL" - exterior lights flash full bright whenever there is a security breach
Emergency "FLASH" mode - ambulance & fire vehicles can see the correct house from a distance
"Fire Escape" path of lighting - an emergency path of soft, dim lighting could be illuminated to lead family to safety
Time clock lighting events while on vacation
Room monitoring to see when a light is on in the house
Convenience
Welcome Home - triggered from your car visor giving you an inviting path of illumination
Bedtime - a path of lighting would lead you from anywhere in the house to the master bedroom without turning off multiple lights
Bedroom to Bathroom - a 10% path of lighting from your bed to the bathroom without wandering blindly through your room
Bedroom to Kitchen - a 10% lighting path that gets your from your bedroom, down the hall, the stairs and into the kitchen
Good Morning - initiated from the bedside table, a slow rise of soft lighting slowly invites the homeowner to a new day
Whole home scenes to simplify daily routines and beautify the home
Entertain - this scene will create elegance, prestige and beauty around the home for any social occasion
Away - "Away Day" simply turns off all unneeded lighting; Away Night" will turn off lighting but leave on landscape and porch lights
Goodnight - one touch turns out all the unused lights while turning on the necessary outdoor lighting
