For ZDNet.co.uk's Homebrew Challenge, Steve Goodwin of Luton has entered his home automation system, which can control lights, entertainment units and even his kettle.

There's more on this home automation system and other personal projects in ZDNet.co.uk's Homebrew Blog, where members tell all about the tech project they are working on at home. The best project will bag a £20,000 Toyota Prius car, courtesy of Intel, in the Homebrew Challenge, so watch out for the winner to be announced soon.
