Buddy Valastro uses iPads and touchpanels to control music, lighting and security.

If you watch the TLC show "Cake Boss," you know how they do it at Carlo's Bakery in Hoboken, New Jersey.

But at home, boss Buddy Valastro wants to relax and let his control system do some of the work in the $1.3 million, 7,000-square-foot New Jersey residence.

Valastro recently had a ELAN g! home control system installed by 360 Media Innovations. The ELAN system, which cost about $97,000, integrates many of the home’s subsystems, including audio/video entertainment, lighting, security and climate.




Through a variety of interface devices, including Buddy’s numerous iPads and wall-mounted touchpanels, the family can access whole-house music, check the security system, control lights and even view family photos from a central server.
