Red Eye Pro works just like the original
Red Eye unit with many additional features
- it attaches to your home
network so that you can control equipment from a wide variety of
devices, including
your iPad, tablet PC, iPod, smartphone, PC or Mac. Red Eye Pro simplifies
control of your equipment using activities, so you can tap one button
to play a movie, another to listen to music, a third to watch television
- without having to provide a user manual explaining the gory details
of how your TV connects to your AV receiver connects to your cable box
connects to your Blu-Ray player. Phew!
Red Eye Pro further extends simplified
control by allowing you to connect to it much more equipment. Red Eye Pro
is able to control more than one room in the house at a time
- it can
even synchronize control across multiple rooms.
Red Eye Pro also features a wide array of
physical connections so that it can work with devices that receive
infrared commands as well as those that communicate over a serial port
(RS-232), using sensors, relays, & more.
For example, by integrating with a
lighting system, you can configure Red Eye Pro not only to control the
lighting as part of your activities, but you can also use light switches
to control Red Eye Pro & the other equipment connected to it. Imagine
walking in the front door & having the lights come on automatically
and your favorite music or radio program start playing quietly in the
background.
