 Happy New Year! I hope you enjoyed the break and are ready to face the challenges of 2012. Unfortunately our return to work coincided with a particularly nasty bout of flu so we're a few days later than normal, but with Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2012 opening in Amsterdam at the end of this month there is no time to dally!
You can still register online using the HiddenWires invitation code of 707662 for free entry, or you can download our ISE invitation card that has further details. If you are attending, we look forward to meeting you - please visit us at stand 7P198 to find out how you can get your projects and news included in HiddenWires. The HiddenWires dedicated ISE 2012 news section offers an ever-expanding preview, and the HiddenWires@ISE 2012 supplement will be distributed as a digital magazine and PDF just before the show opens, and in print at the show.
Finally, I'd like to welcome Philips Dynalite and NuVo Technologies as renewing sponsors. We are only able to provide free access to all of the HiddenWires resources thanks to the support of our sponsors and advertisers - so please take a look at what they have to offer.
- Stella Plumbridge, Publisher
 This month's Home Automation feature is sponsored by Carlo Gavazzi, and we start with the company's Kevin Sheldrake providing an overview of the Carlo Gavazzi smart-house system. This is followed by our Industry Opinion, which asks whether proprietary control protocols still have a future in home automation. You can join this discussion via our LinkedIn group. An overview of the smart home market and its drivers is provided by Bill Ablondi of Strategy Analytics, while Adam White of DataNab explores the integration of thermal storage with building automation, describing a low-cost system for cooling the home.
Dave Pedigo of CEDIA kicks off the new year with a look at trends for 2012, from home automation, through wireless power transmission to digital home health. Meanwhile, having returned from the first CEDIA China Expo, Peter Aylett of Home Technology Associates gives an incisive account of the current state of the market in the region, and the opportunities it presents. Finally, the Urbane Installer looks forward to a successful new year, and ponders the value of warranties. Enjoy!
