Rockleigh, NJ – August 5, 2019 – Crestron, a global leader in advanced smart home technology, announced today that Apple TV®, Siri®, and HomeKit™ technologies can now be leveraged to enhance the experience of Crestron smart home clients. The new and seamless integration delivers lifestyle-changing new functionality, starting with IP control of Apple TV, including lightning-fast voice control with Siri via the TSR-310 touch screen remote control. Initial support will be provided via Crestron SIMPL Windows programming software for 3-Series® control systems, with support in the Crestron Home operating system coming soon.
