iControl Networks Inc. launched Home Security 2.0 at ISC East.
With GE Security as a partner, iControl’s integrated solution provides a new and unique consumer experience that adds broadband and mobile access to security systems, cameras and home devices delivering remote home monitoring and home control functionality to traditional monitored home protection. It features a tri-mode security network that can use broadband, cellular/GSM and POTS technologies. A nice feature of this system is that it complements existing GE Security residential systems and sensors that are already installed, or for new customers.
iControl Networks’ president and CEO, Reza Raji, told SDM that Monitronics Inc., ranked No. 4 on the SDM 100, will offer the iControl solution in the United States.
Home Security 2.0 extends the value of monitored home security services by enabling customers to remotely access and control their system. In addition, customers can see live video and pictures of their home, receive e-mail and/or text message notifications of events, and control lighting, thermostats and more from anywhere in the world via their personal Web portal or mobile phone.
“Home Security 2.0 represents a new consumer experience that merges home security with Web, broadband, and cellular technology,” Raji said.
