HouseBot Version 3 Makes Home Automation Easy

Canton, GA (PRWEB) June 15, 2007 -- CeBotics this week announced the availability of HouseBot version 3, a Windows application for home automation and remote control. HouseBot provides control and status of a wide variety of home controls technologies. It can run on its own to automate daily tasks or can be controlled by software remotes that turn any PC, Pocket PC, or Windows Mobile device into a "virtual" remote control with a rich and fully customizable graphical interface. A 30-day free trial is now available at http://www.housebot.com/.

HouseBot differs from proprietary hardware controllers by being able to run on almost any standard Windows PC. This enables the software to be easily extended and customized, and allows it to interact with other Windows applications. It also enables customers to create robust "software remotes" that provide interactive graphical interfaces on other PCs or handheld devices. By running a HouseBot software remote on a Pocket PC with a WiFi card, for example, consumers can enjoy the benefits of a wireless touchscreen at a fraction of the price of competing solutions.
