Where the smart home really differs from other homes is that a communications infrastructure is installed allowing the various systems and devices in the home to communicate with each other. The modern home may contain a variety of systems, such as central heating, fire and security alarms, and devices, such as televisions and lights, that usually exist in isolation from each other. In the smart home, these systems and devices are able to pass information and commands between them so that, for example, the security alarm can turn the lights on or off.

In developing the smart home, the Beconnected looked at how people currently use their homes and worked out how different technologies could make everyday tasks simpler or easier. Existing equipment in the home can be adapted to provide more functions; for example detectors normally used for security alarms can be used to identify if someone is in a room. New equipment can also be installed to automate tasks such as opening doors or windows.

Over the last fifteen years, computerised controls have become more common in our homes. Computers control our washing machines and microwaves, they turn our heating on and off, and they have provided new ways to monitor the safety and security of our homes. The smart home looks at expanding the use of these computers into other parts of the home, creating a single network that can be easily and conveniently controlled. The use of computer controls removes the need to actually flick a switch or turn a knob to make something work and allows elements of the home to be controlled remotely by, or to respond automatically to, the people living in it.

The smart home relies on a number of small computers distributed around the house that are either used to turn devices and appliances on and off or to send and receive information. These computers are linked together using either a dedicated cable or by sending a special signal through the mains electricity cables.

Internet Access: Easy access to the Internet from each room, with capability for multiple users at any one time throughout the home.
ISDN / Broadband: Rather than limit ISDN / Broadband access to just one specific location, the system allows you access these from any location where you have a telephone or computer point.
TV/Video: Distributes terrestrial or satellite TV and video signals to multiple rooms, allowing you have TV in any room, control the satellite box from any room and watch the video in the bedroom even though the VCR is in the living room
Surround Sound: Homes are wired for 5.1.surround sound with speaker cables to the rear, front and centre of main TV/DVD, buried unnoticeably in the walls. Say goodbye to all those unsightly speaker wires tacked to your skirting board or draped over your fireplace.
Multi-room Audio: All your rooms are wired back to the main central music or hi-fi system where ever it is to be located, allowing you turn on and off the system and control volume, selects sources, i.e. CD, radio tuner, tape deck and select tracks etc. via a touch keypad discretely located beside the light switch or bed in other rooms.
CCTV/ Security: Your home can be wired for cameras at the front or back door or other rooms such as the children's nursery and viewed on any TV set in the home, so you can monitor who calls to your home or watch the safety of your child from your living room or bedroom.
Plasma / Flat Screens: As the price of Plasma screens decrease, make sure your home is wired so that you can choose to install one when you move in or at a later stage without having to add additional cables.
Home Theatre / Projector and Screen: Why not wire your home for a home theatre system with a projector and a drop down screen, a cinema experience without ever leaving home….get your friends around and roll out the popcorn… the film is about to begin.
Satellite Broadband: Your home can be cabled for satellite broadband. This provides much higher bandwidths and speed of transfer of data etc than standard phone or ISDN lines. This is particularly important if you require faster service or live in an area where high speed access is other wise limited.
Door and Gate Entry systems: Control who enters your home by way of a modern entry system using the existing telephones in your home or add a video phone so you can see and talk to callers or even have them displayed on any TV set in your home.
