Crestron Native iPAD™ APP Available Soon

29/04/2010

Crestron the world leader in touchpanel control, announces its new iPad™ app, a seamless merging of iPad resolution and Crestron innovation. Exciting interactive features include browsing your Blu-ray collection, adjusting the lights and checking to see who’s at the door while you’re walking from the fridge to the home theater. Crestron introduced wireless, Web-based and mobile control before most of its competitors were in business, perfecting the ability to re-create personalized touchpanel control and user-defined backgrounds on virtually any device from any location. Now users can enjoy the magical iPad experience with the power of Crestron control.  

Robin van Meeuwen, International Sales Director for Crestron adds, “Of course, when it comes to the control and automation world, we offer so much more than just interfaces, butas market leaders and through our strong commitment to R&D at the highest corporate level, we are able to adapt to new technological developments such as Apple’s iPad to ensure that the solutions we offer can deliver whatever the client wants, as part of an intelligently designed home automation solution.  There’s a lot of talk about the iPad, but if you want to see the Crestron app in action, we’ve even created a video online for our integrators to enjoy.”   

The Crestron Mobile Pro™ G iPad app comes pre-loaded with a standard graphic template, and supports user-defined interfaces as well. If a Crestron dealer has its own, branded interface being deployed on touchpanels throughout the house, the same look and functionality can be used on the iPad. Just like the other Crestron apps, Mobile Pro G provides direct communication to the control system without any third-party software or external servers. Updates and changes to the control program are automatically sent to the iPad when the Crestron app is launched. Using the home Wi-Fi network locally or the powerful 3G and EDGE networks remotely, total control is always at your fingertips.
