Ambrid Ships Newest Universal Voice Remote
Advanced Technology for Home Theater Voice Control Delivers the Only High-End Solution

CAMBRIDGE, MA, February 03, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ambrid has reinvented remote functionality with the newest version of its high-end universal voice remote. The new system is aimed at solving the most vexing system control problems for high-end theatre and whole house control; simplicity with comprehensive functionality. Ambrid fully automates any home system of any complexity with simple voice commands - the interface that people crave.

The new features of the latest Ambrid system that simplify control of today´s complicated home-entertainment systems include:
• Controls an unlimited number of devices via IR, RS-232/DB9, Ethernet, and USB.
• No voice training at all. Any user simply speaks English commands into the handheld with no prior contact.
• No user training. English commands operate the system right from the start.
• Comprehensive operation. All functionality of each component is supported via voice command. If a device is capable of performing a function, the Ambrid will respond to a voice command to operate the system (e.g. "subtitles" or "show menu").
• Ambrid automatically knows the entire channel lineup for all North America stations - whether cable TV, satellite radio, etc, and automatically updates to changes.
• Users can say channel number ("44"), channel name ("Watch CNN"), or easily add any other commands they desire (e.g. "Watch the News", or "Turn on Fox").
• Ambrid automatically knows all the music or video in media players, and will show libraries on-screen ("show artists", or "show movies") or will play any file ("watch The Godfather" or "listen to The Beatles").

Ambrids power is in its ability to deliver full comprehensive control to customers who want to take full advantage of the capabilities of their components, while delivering voice simplicity to those who are less comfortable with technology. Any command that a device can perform, Ambrid now does via voice.

The Ambrid is simple to install and has a simple menu driven configurator that requires no programming at the handheld device. It fully integrates with other controllers or voice front ends (such as intercoms), to deliver unified audio, video, and home control. The system includes remote (internet) access to allow service changes without an on-site visit.

An aesthetic complement to today´s most sophisticated living rooms. When people pick up the sleek ergo-dynamic remote, the first impression is the lack of buttons. One touch and one voice command will put an entire home-entertainment system in the proper state for enjoyment of the activity. The RF remote gives long distance control, and has a unique intelligent software design that eliminates interference.

Ambrid helps custom installers at five levels. First, it is a clear differentiator when advising new customers. Second, it eliminates resistance from family members afraid of complicated remote controllers. Third, it highlights the technical capabilities and value of a high end home system. Fourth, it eliminates expensive after-sale customer calls to re-explain functionality, and fifth, it eliminates on-site service calls with remote internet access.

The Ambrid is only sold through custom installers, has a suggested retail price of $1980 and is available now.
