CRESTRON HARDWARE
Unlike other automation hardware, Crestron has a wide range of products extending past touch panel interfaces. Their line of hardware ranges from high voltage lighting controls, video and audio switchers, audio processors, or anything else needed in the home automation industry. No other manufacturer provides such a range of reliable hardware all supported under the Crestron brand.
TOUCHPANEL INERFACES
Flat screen and LCD technology is an incredible leap in display technology. They have their roots in 'liquid crystal' displays found in calculators of the past. Similar to a flat panel monitor for a computer, touch panel interfaces incorporate an additional membrane covering the surface of the screen. This enables a user of the system to touch and engage buttons displayed on-screen. The true innovation comes with the various sizes of displays from 4 inches up to 17 inches. These can be mounted within a wall or rest on a table. New to Crestron's line is the TPMC-10 which is a 10 inch wireless tablet that is thin and easily carried around a home. Long battery-life and wireless technology enable home automation to be more usable than ever.
UPGRADING CRESTRON
If you are familiar with technology, upgrading or adding functionality to a system can cause big headaches. The beauty of Crestron is their support. They constantly deploy firmware upgrades to legacy products and utilize a technology that enables reliable communication. With the advent of TCPIP, commonly used in every networked computer, Crestron has a foundation in reliability.
