Combining these systems creates more unified, smart entertainment access for end users. Now, Kaleidescape’s movie and music entertainment solutions can be seamlessly accessed as part of URC’s Total Control system — a single touch screen or handheld remote. URC’s voice-enabled devices also allow two-way communication and control with simple operation across URC user interfaces.

The new integration also enables customization to match user preference. For instance, integrators may form multiple rooms, zones, or devices. Total Control’s user experience allows easier entertainment management and usage. With professional programming, users can launch robust scenes in Total Control to create their ideal movie viewing environment, as well. Within a secure environment, the integration allows dealers remote access (with end user approval) to trouble-shoot, monitor, or adjust.

“URC’s Total Control system offers industry-leading control and memorable experiences through valuable integrations. This next generation integration with Kaleidescape allows our valued dealers to easily, intuitively program while thrilling homeowners with the ultimate in movie viewing experience,” stated Chang K. Park, founder and CEO of URC.
