AUTHOR: Robert N. Bucceri
I have a Bachelors of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. I have worked as an Environmental Control System Design Engineer for an aerospace company for the past 22 years and my back ground includes extensive experience with (DDC) Direct Control Systems used to control industrial environmental mechanical systems.
I became interested in residential automation systems in 1985 and have been researching this industry ever since. I designed my first residential automation system for my own home in 1987 and after automating the majority of electrical loads in the home, I continued my hands on experience by automating the homes of family members and friends. After a number of years it became second nature for me when it came to designing and installing these systems. This allowed me to venture out into the real world and design numerous whole house automation systems for high-end homes during the mid 1990s and have continued to do so during the more recent residential building boom. I am continuing to research the industry for new design and installation methods and also test new system components that incorporate the very latest technologies. I use this information extensively to periodically up date my publications and will continue to do so for many years to come.
