Favorites of the 15 - Icontrol

IControl (Home automation networks using Zigbee)

High Level Thoughts:

  • I believe that this market will take off some day
  • The home security/monitoring market is still fragmented, people want a single solution that combines the two.
  • I would buy their package today if I could, looked very simple, and much better than X10.
  • The unfortunate thing is that there are lots of corpses on this path.
Demo:
  • Showed the initial setup of their starter pack (networked camera, door sensors, motion sensors)
  • Showed the web and phone based versions of the portal giving the user information.
Pitch:
  • Use the system to monitor the things you care about: Elderly Parents, Home, Vacation Home, Small Business
