The HomeGenesis project involves the provision of a wide range of
premium services to the home, with an emphasis on applications that
make a tangible difference to the day-to-day life of the community.
The services that will be delivered to trial participants include
broadband access, wireless networking and device connectivity, home
security and surveillance, home control, energy control and utility
monitoring. These services are combined with a range of Beyond
Online's flagship broadband entertainment products: RedKarpet.tv; an
arts, culture and entertainment channel,TheCrunch.tv; a sports,
leisure and travel channel, and Endeavor.tv; a science, technology
and wildlife channel.
In addition, an integrated community portal provides facility booking
services, notification of local and community-related events,
classifieds and notices. The HomeGenesis system can be controlled
either locally or remotely through a sophisticated web-based
interface. An advanced services gateway installed in each premise
incorporates a web server that allows secure web-based control of the
home. Remote access to view or control the home is possible through
login via the HomeGenesis web site. Mobile access and notification of
security alerts are provided through AirGateway's mobile messaging
technologies.
