Since Siri was introduced in the iPhone 4S, various concepts have appeared aimed at giving users ideas by which the personal assistant can be used to facilitate interaction with various electronic products. In the video clip above we have a demonstration of how Siri can be used to control a Creston system which essentially controls many electronic systems in a home. The lights, the TV, the heating system plus many others are controlled by a centralized system produced and installed by the Creston company, but Siri through the iPhone 4S can control that centralized system from Creston.
Quick demo of Apple's Siri communicating with a Crestron Control System. Carnes Audio Visual's Theater consists of a Crestron AMS-AIP, Infinet Light Dimmer, Thermostat and TPS-6x. Additional Server required for Siri integration. Own a Crestron System? Contact us if you would like to add this capability to your home, check our website at CarnesAudioVisual.com.
I don't know how many will actually use Siri to control a house in this way, but the idea itself certainly attracts a lot of interest from people and in the future we will see more and more systems like the one from Creston but controllable by voice commands.
