Hong Kong Communications Co. Ltd (HKC) had successfully held the HKC Solution Day in Annapurna Room, Pacific Place, at 11 December 2009. HKC is one of the major telecommunication equipment and solution providers. In this event, HKC demonstrated several products ranging from Home Automation, commercial system solution, to other advanced home and office technologies, attracted groups of enthusiasts to experience the technologies in person.

The highlights of the Solution Day were the HA Express, i-Green Home and Security and i-Video Door Phone demonstration, where visitors were able to experience the care, comfort, convenience and connectivity the system had brought.

The 2nd generation home automation controller - HA Express, had drawn the attention of the visitors with its total wireless design, as well as its fascinating outlook. Users may control the home devices using 26-key RF remote control; from the wall-mount RF faceplate, via a software client interface, or most sophisticatedly through a voice-activated control.

Beside the HA Express, we had demonstrated new HA features integrating with DSC alarm system. We added value to the existing alarm system by displaying user's floor plan on the software client interface. When an alarm is triggered, user can easily visualize the hot zone and an IP camera associated with that zone will pop up to show video images. In cooperation with the home automation system, home appliances such as lighting can be turned on to scare the intruder and enhance home safety. When the alarm is not activated, the sensors will become green home sensors to help save energy, turning on and off the programmed home devices such as lighting or air-con, depending on whether the rooms are occupied.

Lastly, the video door phone solution had been shown together with a club house booking system, memo alert and wireless door phone. Collectively they create a paperless property management operation to help save the environment.

Apart from the main focus, we had also demonstrated megapixel camera and XML IP telephony system. Presentations had been given to visitors to introduce the features and benefits of all the demonstrated solutions.
