SEPTEMBER 6, 2007 – Denver, CO – Control4, the leader in affordable home automation and entertainment solutions, today announced that it has been awarded the 2007 Electronic House Product of the Year Award for its IP Camera Integration, which adds a new range of video solutions to the Control4 product line, especially suited for home security applications. With the Control4 IP Camera Integration system, homeowners can view what is occurring inside and outside of the home through Control4 touch screens or Control4-enabled televisions as well as from a secure connection via the Internet. “We are pleased that Electronic House recognized the IP Camera Integration as a significant leap forward for our dealers and their customers,” said Will West, Chief Executive Officer, Control4. “The availability of added security integration at an affordable price represents an entirely new dimension for the home automation industry.” Using any of Control4’s graphical user interfaces, the homeowner can view who’s at the door, check in on a sleeping child, and even see weather images and traffic cameras. Additionally, by utilizing the 4Sight remote home control package, a user on vacation can monitor his or her home live at any time using a web browser. This access is completely encrypted and requires no additional configuration of the router or firewall in the home. “Control4 is bringing a fundamental shift to the home automation industry with affordable wired and wireless products,” said Cindy Davis, Editor-in-Chief of Electronic House. “The IP Camera Integration offers peace of mind to homeowners by giving them access they dreamed of – the ability to easily and affordably monitor their homes from the next room or the next state." The Electronic House Product of the Year is awarded annually to products that represent a step forward for the industry, while showcasing exceptional innovation and provide great value to consumers. The 2007 winners were chosen by a panel that sorted through hundreds of applicants, tested product demos, and spoke with actual dealers and installers.
