A complete and practical home security system contains video cameras, an alarm system, network access, and intelligent circuitry. Depending on the complexity of a system, a home security system can be connected to home networks by either using powerlines, phonelines, Ethernet, IEEE 1394, USB, or wireless technologies. Home security usually includes a camera and microphone to provide security from intruders. Security cameras at the door or in your backyard and front yard protect the home from strangers. It allows you to monitor visitors at your door step. 2, record 2, English, - home%20security%20system

A innovative approach to seniors’ housing that originated in Australia, the so-called "granny flat" is a detached housing unit which can be placed in the yard of an existing family home. Intended solely for occupancy by an elderly parent or parents of the owner of the main house and property, the self-contained units are designed to be temporary and portable, so that they can be removed and relocated when no longer required. 1, record 3, English, - Portable%20Living%20Units%20for%20Seniors

Le «pavillon grand-mère» est une idée innovatrice pour le logement des personnes âgées qui nous vient d'Australie et qui consiste à installer un logement individuel sur le terrain d'une maison unifamiliale existante. Destiné uniquement à être utilisé par les parents de l'un des propriétaires de la maison principale et du terrain, ce logement autonome est conçue de façon à être facilement enlevé et placé ailleurs lorsqu'il n'est plus nécessaire. 1, record 3, French, - Logements%20mobiles%20pour%20personnes%20%C3%A2g%C3%A9es

Video produced by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Many of Canada's elderly live independently, but sometimes need help taking care of their homes. Seniors, renovators and caregivers will want to see this two-part video : Garden Suites, about creating a small, self-contained home in the yard of a larger house; and Marguerite Chown's story of how minor home renovations allowed her to remain in her home despite her reduced mobility. 1, record 4, English, - Garden%20Suites%20%26%20Marguerite%20Chown%26rsquo%3Bs%20Renovation%20Story

Vidéo produite par la Société canadienne d'hypothèques et de logement. Nombre de Canadiens âgés vivent de manière autonome, mais ont parfois besoin d'aide pour entretenir leur maison. Les personnes âgées, les rénovateurs et les fournisseurs de soins trouveront certainement utile cette vidéocassette en deux parties : la première porte sur les pavillons-jardins, c'est-à-dire l'aménagement d'un petit logement autonome sur le terrain d'une maison plus grande, et la seconde montre comment les petites rénovations apportées à la maison de Marguerite Chown lui ont permis de rester autonome chez elle, en dépit d'une mobilité réduite. 1, record 4, French, - Les%20pavillons%2Djardins%20et%20l%27histoire%20de%20Marguerite%20Chown
