FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
August 15, 2005
Bedford, NH – A new version of the award winning HomeSeer
Home Automation Software was released this month by HomeSeer
Technologies LLC. HomeSeer 2.0 is an entirely new application
that takes
advantage of the latest computing technologies, including
the Microsoft™ .NET Framework. The framework allows
the application to be totally distributed. The HomeSeer server
application runs on a central PC as a service. Client PCs
in the home or on the Internet can be used for text-to-speech
or standard text notifications. HomeSeer 2.0 also supports
ASP.NET, which allows users to easily create their own control
interfaces.
New support for extensive macros allows event actions to
perform an endless variety of tasks. The management interface
is totally web based, so the entire system can be configured
using any web browser. HomeSeer 2.0 is backwards compatible
with previous versions. Most current add-ons and automation
hardware are supported. This includes the new Media Center
interface, TouchPad touch screen/ PocketPC interface, web
cams, Z-Wave, X10, and more. Additional technologies will
be supported too in the upcoming months, including UPB, INSTEON,
Lutron and others.
“
This upgrade will enable HomeSeer to be the most reliable
and feature rich software package available for home control,” states
Richard Tinker, Chief Technology Officer for HomeSeer.
HomeSeer 2.0 is shipping now.
