We've mentioned the X10 and iControl home monitoring systems. Now there's a new kid on the block. Eaton has introduced the Home heartbeat Monitoring System which should be on sale this summer.


According to Eaton's Press Release:



Home Heartbeat operates on a new wireless networking standard, IEE 802.15.4 (also referred to as Zigbee). This standard connects small, embedded sensors and transmitters that don't need much bandwidth, but do need long battery life, built-in network security and scalability. Because the Home Heartbeat system is wireless, it is easy to upgrade by adding new sensors and components.

Out of the box, Home Heartbeat can quite literally be up and monitoring the status of the home in minutes. Home Heartbeat makes it easy for homeowners, whether at home or away, at work or on vacation, to get quickly alerted when potential problems occur at home.



The home monitoring kit will cost about $150 and include a sensor, base station and an electronic key. with additional sensors costing about $50 each.
