November 24, 2005 With convergence happening at such a rate, it's sometimes a good idea to buy and plan as far out as possible so you don't end up wth incompatible or legacy systems. Every self respecting technophile has probably been eyeing up what's available in home automation, home security and home entertainment systems, but each comes with an array of microprocessor-controlled functions and a network. The aim should be to have one network and the SecureGen HTVR offers the chance to combine all three of those networks with one unit – the brain of your intelligent home. Firstly, it is a fully featured media and control centre for the home. Connect it to your entertainment system to watch television, view videos, play MP3s, or observe video feeds from security and or child monitoring cameras. Integrate the HTVR with a Home Automation System and control your compatible intrusion detection system, air conditioning system, lighting system, and automated appliances from the main unit or wirelessly connected extender devices. It'll even monitor your intrusion detection system to automatically transmit video to a monitoring centre or predefined location whenever an alarm is triggered.

You can connect up to eight Video Surveillance cameras to the HTVR to record video from your local security and child safety cameras, record and instantly review network (IP) video from anywhere there's an internet connection, and to save storage space on surveillance footage, it can activate recording upon motion detection. Similarly, using this system, a single camera can be utilized to monitor multiple outdoor play areas. If you're using Pan/Tilt/Zoom security cameras you can remotely control the cameras or even create presets and tours for the camera to follow.

Designed to be ultra-quiet, the HTVR is expected to reside comfortably in your family room or entertainment centre. Store your MP3s, videos, and photos in one central location.

SecurHome manufactures home surveillance and security equipment. Each system includes an advanced module for viewing and recording video from security and/or child safety cameras throughout your home. The HTVR supports wireless or LAN based network (IP) cameras and the full spectrum of high-resolution analog coaxial cameras.
