Home Automation for the World's Smartest Homes

AUDIO-ONE, who is a leading Crestron Installation and Programming firm serving Miami, South Florida and the Los Angeles market, had a chance to discuss on platforms using Crestron as the backbone in creating new home automation interfaces. Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder of the social networking company, Facebook, is once again gaining attention in one of the world's fastest growing industries: Home Automation. Known as Jarvis, this iPhone app has been referred to as Mark's "custom-made artificially intelligent assistant."  Similar to Amazon's Alexa, Jarvis interfaces with Messenger, according to Zuckergerg's Fackbook blog post. In addition to connecting smart devices and phones around the home, Javris can use Facebooks' visual face detection to determine intelligent tasks such as notifications when the baby is awake, or who is ringing the doorbell. To learn more about Jarvis and Crestron technologies, read on.

With over 8 CEDIA Industry Awards for best systems and installation company, AUDIO-ONE's projects span from South Florida, to California, the North East coast to as far away as Ghana Africa, with clients flying Audio One's teams over the world. 

What is interesting to note is that Jarvis is actually built on top of Crestron's elite smart home technology. Crestron has been leading the way in luxury custom smart home automation for many years, and is definitely compared as being the "ultimate" provider of home automation for homes of "the 1%" most wealthy persons in the world. Crestron home automation systems can cost thousands to over millions of dollars and allow people to control the majority of all electronic systems in the home from anywhere in the world with internet access including lighting, motorized shades, alarm, access control, home theater, audio, video, sound system, HVAC and so much more. 

Clancy, Crestron's president of residential systems, said Crestron would typically be able to power many of Jarvis' features through its own apps. But Crestron, in this particular project, created an API that would let Zuckerberg build his own "front end" in his preferred programming language, Python.

Clancy was also very pround to state that Zuckerberg and his wife "wanted the reliability of the proven system and also the ability to customize on their end, tied to his Jarvis service." The fact that he chose Crestron to build the API is certainly a compliment to Crestron, being that the competition is certainly rising heavily in the marketplace by companies like Control4, Savant and more.

New features that Zuckerberg's engineering added is described to go beyond fixed phrases or hitting buttons, since it has the ability to learn, especially utilizing the face recognition technology. The interactive voice by Morgan Freeman certainly is just icing on the cake. Crestron toutes itself as also having govenment facility level cybersecurity, certainly something that more people clearly demand to protect from fraud attacks, identity theft, and general security threats.Crestron can also integrate Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa and other devices.
