Welcome

This site is designed to showcase my experiments with Home Automation. I've been playing with HomeAuto since grade school when my father bought some X10 devices from Radio Shack. More recently I've used the TW523 and firecracker interfaces and cron jobs as an alarm clock.

Babylon 5 is responsible for my latest foray into Home Automation. I've decided I want to be able to walk into a room, say "Computer: Lights", and it be done. See the Use Cases for more ideas of what I want this system to do.
