We’ve seen plenty of applications where the iPhone is used as a remote controller, of sorts. From sound engineering to your music collection, the iPhone’s capacitance-based multi-touch display is ideal for remote-control-use.
Cinemar has announced that they’ll be brining iPhone and iPod Touch support for their Cinemar Mainlobby home-automation. Using an AJAX web-app, Mainlobby’s integrated web-server gives the iPhone complete control over everything in the home – lighting, security, home theater, thermostats, and movie/music collection. You’ll even be able to browse all the movies on your 400-disc DVD player or on an external hard-drive and check whether conditions. And, by the time Mainlobby goes commercial for the iPhone, we’re sure the guys at Cinemar will have built in even cooler features.
iPhone support is still in its infancy, so we’ll be keeping a close eye on Cinemar’s development progress.
