Mathieu Gallissot and team have submitted their "KNX social bar" video to KNX contest.
This is not your usual KNX demo but shows KNX used in some new and imaginative scenarios. They've also got a nice OpenRemote user interface included in the demo.
If you like KNX and like the video, please help and submit your vote.

In the previous month's video (if you missed it watch it here), Marcus Redeker showed an integration of OpenRemote, iPhone/Android UI, Russound and KNX. He created an iPhone interface to control audio output from Russound controller and integrated it with a touch interface on iPhone and also with physical KNX switches with OpenRemote controller rules.
This second part of the video shows how the iPhone UI panel was constructed with OpenRemote Designer. It also demonstrates the new Russound Import Wizard which automatically creates commands, sensors, sliders and audio zones. Finally the new rules feature is demonstrated with a rule editor in the OpenRemote Designer.

Marcus Redeker is back with another video that demonstrates OpenRemote integration with Russound multi-room audio system.
The iPhone touch interface shows multi-room zone control with volume, source, bass and treble controls. Similar user interfaces can be used with iPhone and iPad tablets, Android phones and tablets and from within your PC's web browser. This enables you to use your existing touch devices to control your audio setup without necessarily adding separate keypads for Russound control.
As an added bonus, the video shows integration of Russound touch interface with physical KNX switches. The audio can be controlled both from touch interfaces or physical switches with state synchronization across separate systems.

Marcus Redeker put together a video that shows OpenRemote controller with an iPhone user interface controlling Z-Wave enabled hardware – door sensor, light, dimmer and a motion sensor.
The Z-Wave hardware is controlled via an IP-to-ZWave gateway from HomeScenario.
We will be working on more support for Z-Wave USB sticks to add to our existing protocol integrations (KNX, Lutron, ISY-99 Insteon, X10, Z-Wave, GlobalCache, IRTrans, 1-Wire, etc).
The second part of the video shows how the UI was created with OpenRemote Designer.

The best thing about working in Open Source is when you get to see what users are able to accomplish with your software. Here Mario Neugaertner demonstrates the OpenRemote user interface he has created for his office space.
It includes control of lights and blinds and open window detection, controllable from iPad. We especially like what Mario did with the customized sliders to represent blinds in the UI. The photo work is also impressive and the UI in general looks fantastic.

Google made an announcement this week at Google I/O conference where at the keynote they demonstrated an Android device controlling the lights of the showroom. This created quite a bit of buzz in the HA field, and we've since received quite a few questions what exactly does Google's move mean?
We've tried to figure it out but things are quite fuzzy still, and lots of detail is missing.

We've started the work on designing the next version of the user interface composer. From user functionality and user interface point of view this is going to bring some notable changes to the current 1.x release branch.
Marc described some of the logic driving the changes in his earlier UI composer, next generation post in June. …

Jörg Falkenberg gave an OpenRemote iKNX presentation last week in Amsterdam. We've made the slides available online.
One of the more frequent questions we get about iKNX is how does it fit with the rest of the OpenRemote product strategy? OpenRemote RI is based around a controller whereas iKNX is a product connecting directly to a KNX gateway. …
