Home Of Electronic LifeStyles To Be Featured At 2000 CES
The Home of Electronic Lifestylesô is enroute to the Las Vegas Convention Center where it will be featured during the Custom Electronics Show (CES) from January 6-9, 2000. The home was designed by the Custom Electronic Design and Installation Association (CEDIA) to demonstrate the latest in home automation and systems integration. Like the Home of Electronic Lifestylesô, a fully automated home features a central control panel for operating all applicable systems including lighting, security, heating, cooling, whole-house audio, video, drapes and more. The technology and components incorporated into the home represent the many home automation possibilities that are now available to consumers. ""CES is an ideal venue for the Home of Electronic Lifestylesô,"" said Billilynne Keller, CEDIAís Executive Director. ""There are hundreds of innovative, cutting-edge products at CES, but the Home of Electronic Lifestylesô actually demonstrates the impact these products will have ñ and are having ñ on consumersí homes and lifestyles."" Keller said the integrated systems in the home represent what CEDIA designers and installers provide for consumers on a daily basis. ""We live in a very fast-paced world and these designed systems make it wonderful to come home after a long day at the office. Automated homes are all about ease of use and comfort for the consumer and they are rapidly moving into the mainstream."" The Home of Electronic Lifestylesô will be located on the CES show floor at booth #5873. Following CES, the Home of Electronic Lifestyles will travel to other home-related trade shows in the United States.
