Using Savant’s revolutionary OSD (On-Screen Display) menu system, you’ll be able to control anything in your home directly from your television screen.

On-screen caller ID allows you to see who’s calling without ever having to interrupt what you’re watching on TV. Browse and share photos, watch online videos, or view your stock portfolio. No other system comes close to matching the elegant simplicity of Savant’s OSD.
THE WORLD IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND: The iPhone® and iPod touch® are some of the most user-friendly mobile devices ever created. Savant has leveraged Apple’s exceptional functionality as an essential part of our technology, enabling you to use these devices for control throughout your home.
By using simple taps, swipes, and gestures on the iPhone® or iPod touch® you can browse your music and movie collections with album artwork, view your security cameras when you are traveling, interact with Savant’s OSD control and much, much more.
SAVANT ADAPTS TO FIT YOUR LIFESTYLE: Times change, technologies evolve and personal preferences adjust. Savant, based upon the Apple OS X operating system, has been engineered to easily adapt to these changes, giving the system longevity where others quickly become obsolete. Every touch panel, iPhone® and HD TV takes advantage of Apple’s amazing graphics capabilities allowing a Savant system to be tailored to your personal requirements without sacrificing style for functionality. Compelling features can be added to the system and customized to meet your lifestyle.
VISUAL NAVIGATION AND CONTROL: Visually captivating and easy to operate is not what first comes to mind when most people use a touch panel for the first time. Screen after screen of buttons for every imaginable function can rapidly take the appeal out of owning home control.
Wouldn’t it be nice to simply tap on a light or the TV in a room, rather than a button, to have it turn on? With Savant’s TrueImage Control you do just that.
Using a photographic image of each room in your home, you are able to dim and turn on/off lights, lower or raise shades, even turn on/off your audio and video components simply by touching the item in the image. Not only does the light in the room turn on, but it also illuminates on the on the touch panel confirming your command. What could be more instinctive than using actual photos of each room as the basis for your control system?
