Yes, although your link didn’t work.
From what I understand.
Your home would have a “central control” panel, so to speak. That panel would connect either hard wired or wirelessly to the “Internet”, so you could access it from virtually anywhere.
That panel would in turn, would connect via RF signals to devices within your home. The list of devices is almost limitless, including RF tags on/with the expiration dates of the food you bought.
Controlling locks, doors, windows, lights, HVAC etc is just the first phase.
If anyone knows a way to make Arris wireless router modems work with Linux, please tell me...
yeap. I have a friend who was using the system from one of the “security” companies. Ridiculous monthly charges and when she had problems, nearly impossible to fix and get out of the contract. The Iris system that Lowes is offering is free to cheap. And if I want out, I am out.
