If an intruder smashes
your control panel, the company alerts the police. All signals within your system and to the monitoring station are encrypted for an added layer of protection. The equipment receives automatic updates through the air so that you know the system is always working its best for you. You can always add professional monitoring to your system with absolutely no obligation to continue monitoring, because they have no contracts. Do you have an existing home automation system?If so, you will need to find a wireless home security system that is compatible with your existing equipment. Some brands sell proprietary home automation/security equipment and others are designed to work with a variety of third party brands. If you buy a wireless home security system that’s not compatible with your existing home automation equipment, you will be required to use two different control systems, one for your home automation equipment and another for your wireless home security system. So if simplicity is important to you, look for a brand the is compatible with your existing equipment. Another thing you will have to think about is whether you
want to self monitor or pay for professional monitoring. Self monitoring is fairly easy because many wireless home security systems come with a mobile app that enables you to access, monitor, and control your system using that app. However, the monitoring burden is entirely up to you.

ET DETROIT AP A cane equipped with the technology that retailers use totag merchandise could help blind people avoid obstacles. An engineering professor and five students at Central Michigan Universityhave created a ''Smart Cane'' to read electronic navigational tagsinstalledbetween buildings to aid the blind in reaching their destinations moreeasily. ''This project started as a way for me to teach students to see andunderstand the ways that engineering can be
used for the greater good,''said Kumar Yelamarthi, the professor and project leader. ''We wanted to dosomething that would help people and make our campus more accessible. '' During the spring term, Yelamarthi and five senior engineering studentstested the cane, which is equipped with Radio Frequency Identificationtechnology, similar to what retailers put on products to keep them frombeing stolen. The Smart Cane contains an ultrasonic sensor that is paired with aminiaturenavigational system inside a messenger style bag worn across the shoulder.
