OSTERVILLE, Mass. Sept. 4, 2008 -- Savant Systems LLC has announced the introduction of a
downloadable application for Apple’s iPod®
and iPod® touch that runs natively on either
device in order to provide 2-way control of any home system connected to
one of Savant’s innovative ROSIE automation
systems. The new application providing complete home automation and
media control will soon be available on the iPhone App Store for $199.
“Our application effectively leverages all the
power of Apple’s amazing mobile computing
platform, enabling homeowners with a ROSIE control system to enjoy
unprecedented levels of convenience and efficiency added to their daily
lives,” stated Savant president Jim Carroll.
Savant’s new application features intelligent
2-way communication from feedback-capable systems in the home, such as
lighting, HVAC, security cameras and supported audio/video equipment.
The application also incorporates the “gesture”
control and “tilt”
sensors found on both Apple® devices.
Savant’s new application has been engineered
to provide complete control over the ROSIE On-Screen Display (OSD),
which uses HD graphics to provide intuitive control of systems
throughout the home. The application also includes a section dedicated
to “themed interfaces”
that can be customized by an authorized Savant dealer using RacePoint
Blueprint™ software and a compatible ROSIE
system on the network. “We wanted to give our
customers the ultimate 2-way application to control their homes from the
iPhone™ or iPod®
touch and make it easily downloadable for them from the iPhone App Store,”
concluded Carroll.
