This is not true . it depends on the design of the system . Our system is decentralised . there is no single point failure possible in our system which makes the entire system fail . So one component failure cannot make entire system into trouble . Only the failed device will not work , but you have alternative option of operating the device through mobile, Touch panels , or manual switches on the actuators.

This is not true. Any layman can be the user . with the help of intuitive front end design , system becomes user friendly . You have local switches in each area as in the normal conventionally wired buildings . simply pressing the buttons will give you desirede functionality like switching lights , curtain and Air conditioner .presence and event based control will function automatically as the customer desires .

No . Its not costly . Automation in buildings are becoming cheaper . Today good quality TV from good brand is costing from 50000 to 3 lakh and beyond .after warranty , if some thing happens to its circuitary or its panel , you may have to replace or need spend huge amount for getting it repaired . but in home thatres we use projectors in which most of the cases the lamp fails after working for thousands of hours , this can be replaced easily for a small amount . Basic budget of a home theatre can start from 1.5 lakh onwards

Yes. this is the most important feature of automation . with the press of a button on your mobile or switch on the wall or even on the touch panel, you can make the lighitng suitable for the situation or event , make the temperature in the building adjust to the guests comfort level , all curtain closes automatically light music starts playing . this is called creating scenes with the press of a button . also you have the facility of multi location control of the lights in the building .everything is configurable - no need to change the wiring , or hardware installation
