3D Home Automation / Theatre
-
I have already made a great deal of progress in developing some next-generation home automation software. I am working in C# and have created managed libraries for controlling several devices and for performing other tasks like reading and writing WMA audio headers and ID3 V1 and V2 tags. In addition, I am working on a very nice interface layer to support UPnP device discovery and control. Lastly, I plan to allow all of this to be controlled using a touch screen or mouse in a completely 3D environment. This will be realized using a Managed Direct 3D user interface layer that is modeled after the System.Windows.Forms namespace. If any of this sounds interesting to you, I could really use some help. I know how all of this is going to work, and I have portions of every part of the solution complete. I would like to get someone else involved to help with the project and to help keep me focused. I personally live in Houston, so if you're close it would be even more helpful. Also, if you know of any other sites that you think I should post this to, can you let me know that also? Thanks all.
