Video: The house that thinks

BBC News report from West Bromwich, UK, on an ordinary Victorian house that has been converted to accommodate almost every electronically controlled device you can think of, linked to a system that responds to the owner’s movements. This does deserve to be called a ’smart home’ unlike those that are just ‘telecare enabled’. (See Soapbox item: Telecare ‘Smart Homes’ Nowhere Near Smart Enough.)

Watch the 1½ minute ‘iHouse’ video here. Sharp-eyed viewers may spot Telemedcare’s equipment in one scene.
