The touch screen is installed in this hight, because it also supports video-conference (see camera left side) and can be used by sitting on a chair. The whole house electric is controlled by EIB.

What makes this really cool is not only does it look like LCARS its actually functional! its a working terminal!

I have always admired the UI what is presented in star treks. They really are simple and good looking. Instead something like what we have today.

Yes, the screensaver running first is the free downloadable "system 47" and the screensaver at the end is "goldfisch". The the program between is DYI using ms visual studio c# express 2008 inluding a DIY lcars-gfx-library - written in c#, too.

Yeah you should honestly patent this home interface tech with the lcars interface. I would def. buy one. The home security features make it worth it along with the extras

Let me know when you get it to respond to "Tea, Earl Grey, hot."

Lol, so surprised to see my System47 at the beginning!!! 😉 The whole thing is so cool. Very impressive 👍 Love the aquarium at the end

THIS IS HIGHLY RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS. The reason I needed to confirm I would marry Germany were it a human being... or some other kind of palpable object. Dude, you kick some heavy asses, kudos to your house.

Probably one of the coolest things I've ever seen!!

@Shaudh The software is self-created in Visual Studio dotnet and the house electric is controlled by knx / eib.

screen is industrial tft and touchscreen - assembled on my own, the software is written in c#

The platform is windows xp embedded and the program is DYI using ms visual studio c# express 2008 inluding a DIY lcars-gfx-library - written in c#, too. The screensaver running first is the free downloadable "system 47" and the screensaver at the end is "goldfisch".

This is probably one of the most awesome I've ever seen! I just need to have one!

Hi jason879, we left a hole in the wall while building the house and placed the industrial touchscreen-monitor inside it.

If i was rich, i would totally wire my house like that. Nice UI by that way, love that all i would have to do to upgrade is mess with xml.

Christ that is awesome. Just need the sounds.

Brought the 24th century to the home! Prima!

Technologically, it is not far away at all- in fact it is here. It is the implication of the technology that is distant, not the technology itself.

Now thats just fecking awesome!

Hi, it can control the whole house electric like lights etc. including timer programming and security functions. Regards, Daniel

@jagpoag hm, the slow movement was planned to be shure that the people who are interested in details have the chance to get them - and not to be dramatic... Maybe it´s because I normally write software instead of making movies ;-)

This is epic winnage. You sir kick ass!

Its not that bad, the slowness is a small problem since the CPU and RAM can be increased very cheaply.

Holy crap! That is seriously the coolest thing I have ever seen in my entire life!! I want that sooooooo bad!!!!!

@XR42 I´m am sorry - no. This german version inside this house is the only existing version. There is no other house using this software - so there is no need for an english version in the german house ;o)

Nun musst du noch das haus im Startrek stiel umbauen.. Cool! Wette das einbauen hat ne Zeit gedauert und die wand ist vollgestopft mit kabeln..

I'm German American, and I think THAT Deserves props, ma boi!

This is very COOL!! nice work. I got to buy a house first then i'll do something similar!!

Just awesome and amazing! I'm currently working on a similiar project, a real working Star Trek PADD from TNG with somme commands. However, i'm looking to know how to build the touchscreen part. Can you help me please?

I like it, and could propably spend hours with it :-) I also like that you included a 47.

amazing, thank you Gene Roddenberry

Wie ich schon mal auf deiner Flickr-Seite erwähnte! GENIAL! :)

Hey, you shold set up a website on how to do this, maybe paramount could work out a deal with you to intall/set up systems like this for shipment.

Why not put the touch screen at eye level? Looks great though, what lighting system did you integrate with?

I want this in my home so I can play music from the speakers that I would have connected to this system. I would want to be able to control every computer in my home from this terminal.

aww man, oh well, anyway ya lookin forward to the new movie on may 8th right? it looks awesome.

Your House is amazing! I wish i had a house like yours!!

richtig geil gemacht....welche software hast du denn dafür verwendet??

Do you know what a home automation terminal is? It controls the electric, your light, the home security, the telephon and maybe the coffeemachine etc.. Why should it run applications?

xa9000 - can you post some technical specifications how you automated it ? Did you use any commercial controllers or is it absolute DIY ? It would be nice to hear your thoughts as I'm struggling for a log time with my own home automation system and sometimes it drives me crazy when it goes to compatibility/usability (actually the very lack of it) in various models available.

What dark cave have you been hiding in, why would you use isolinear chips when you could use Bio Nueral Gel packs. That will get things rocking.

real nice, but does it actually do anything...apart from bleep..?? Can it run applications?

holy shit this is insane....a dream come true!

wow awesome house!

What computer language did you use to write the program? I'm a information technology student and current course is talking about software design languages.

What software do you mean? C#? Because that is the only part of my lcars-touchscreen-software, you can find on the net.

total cool!was kann man damit noch alles machen,bzw,was muss man dafür für kosten aufbringen?

wie geil ist das denn? fehlt nur noch, dass da klingonen rumlaufen!!! sooo geil

hey, this may sound rude, but did this costa lot to install and maintain?

Schau mal in die ersten Kommentare, da stehts schon im Detail. Oben unter "mehr Infos" ist auch noch ein Link zum "Making of"

is there a chance we would be able to get a copy of the software?

cool, how did you program it, are you some guy at home who loves computers or do you actually have a job in that sort of stuff

Hello, I bought a house and I would like to buy this LCD with lcars, I say you know what it costs in euros and where they buy?

do u know how many people would buy this to put in their house if it had a purpose like controlled everything that deal with electronics

Where did you buy the screen & what software did you use to do this thanks?

This is artists freedom ;o) (The gradients are inspired by system 47)

all them buttons and you just closed the window. how many buttons did you have to push to make the window shutters down.

Und das vor 16 Jahren ey... ich kanns nicht fassen! 😂👍

this is major cool and all but what does it actually do, is it just for show or what

i would like to implement that as well? any more details?

i know this is a custom job, but could you provide the source code/hardware used so we plebeians can make our own

Das ist mal richtig EDEL! Wo kann man das bekommen, oder ist es gar selbst programmiert?

Can you show a version in english on your site or here?

that is awesome maybey someday thanks for the video

Hi, we have a computer controlled home system like this. The program sucks, I'm thinking of installing a 3rd party solution. What's the exact name of home automation program you've used? I presumed you've created a skin/theme for it? Thanks.

Now im not a huge fan of star trek but this is wicked

This is pretty cool!

@XR42 is the softwere open sorce so i could recomile it for english anna

Hi, you can´t buy it. It is done by "do it yourself"

@xa9000 well since everyone is hooked to "apps" with the iphone, they always think that everything that has a screen and is touch screen should run apps and play games... lol, anyways, impressive setup. is this the only terminal or are there others? I wish you could show more of what other things it can control. Just for the fun of it. hehe

Hi, it´s do it yourself programmed using c#.

Aaah, this is so cool, there's no word for how cool this is. :p

das will ich auch... wo kriegst du das her?

That looks awesome! I'm having that in my next house :D Also everyone if you want you'r laptop or PC to have a fully working LCARS operating system, google 'LCARS X32' or visit "lcarsx32,com" (replace , with .) it's awesome! (but please note, it's still in beta)

cool project!

@audischwaaa Too right! This is brilliant, I'd love to hack it and do a custom skin on that UI (I love trek but I can design one better than lcars ;))

Who do I need and how much money do I need to pay to get this into my life tomorrow? I ain't kidding I need this.

Ok, that's just way too cool! Well done! :)

Impressive!

Just fantastic. I want one!

Awesome dude! I have 3 questions: 1) How did you got a serial communication between raspberry pi and arduino? 2) Which program were used? 3) How did you made the gui? Thanks!!

Very cool!

This special star trek touchscreen is only designed for our private use and not designed to be sold.

Wow, looks really nice. Do you have a website where you have documented this some more? I'd love to implement something like this but I'd need some help to start. :)

I MUST HAVE THIS.

Wauw. Amazing. Looks great. Good job.

That is awesome. I envy you ^^

man das muss recht komplex sein zu programmieren, hätte ich so eine verkabeluung und sonen colles touchpanel ich würd versuchen eine ähnliche software iwie hinzuskinnen oder zu programmen, dauert wahrschienlich monate

where can this software be downloaded?

Fantastic ! I love it, great job !

Does it explode?

One word... TRIPOD!! Camera goes on it. Ya digg?

what kinda person developer software, advertizes this but doesn't port their code?

Is it possible that you could make an english version for me

@pixelkatten best comment that I have ever read.

Planning on releasing this software? Would it be "Graphically custoumable"? Would it be open source?? Please............... let it be :D

damn cool. i want one!

How much for building this into a house? ^^

Not quite there: lacking the correct sounds, as previously mentioned, and it's very, very slow responding to your input, e.g. navigating to sub-menus.

awesome.
