CATANIA, Italy, May 10, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

SmartBug is an Italian startup that is getting ready to globally launch its

home automation ecosystem on Kickstarter. SmartBug is a smart home system with

which users can automate their home. A real revolution in the field of smart

home and home automation: a disruptive alternative in the market that combines

collaborative technology and personalized services in an elegant and smooth

device. Without a hub, it offers a set of plugins with unlimited possibilities

of use.

A touch and gesture enabled wall switch, designed for all of those who want to

keep a minimalist and discreet design without giving up on technology. Just

like in the theory of the "intelligent swarms," the SmartBugs installed around

the home - while replacing the old wall switches - can collaborate among each

other through a solution that integrates WiFi, Bluetooth, and IR depending on a

decentralized system that shares a peer-to-peer strategy, beyond the modern

cloud technology. The mesh network allows for a link between the various

SmartBugs, creating a network that requires no signal repeaters. It's with the

on-board IR Led that the receivers translate the light impulses into commands

so as to allow the device to turn on the AC or change a channel on TV. With

SmartBug, the user can control the most traditional technology through an

intelligent app that can be downloaded on the smartphone where it stores all

codes, adding infinite potentials. While a temperature and humidity sensor

allows for the control of every environment and the HVAC. It can also interface

with the weather stations on the web and prepare for the household needs.

With a high quality digital microphone and a buzzer, every SmartBug can manage

the voice commands of all the smart home functions. Just like Amazon, Google

and Apple's virtual assistants even in the absence of these latter. The

listening feature can be activated and deactivated at will thus allowing to

notice the presence of people, dangerous situations (cries for help) or

suspicious noises (alarm feature).

SmartBug is also an intelligent ecosystem of control that allows one to save

money by recognizing and managing the excessive loads of energy in a fast way

and avoid triggering the circuit breaker. SmartBug can measure and control

power usages, through the power meter or the power used by a single appliance

through a monitoring dashboard that allows to determine the environmental

footprint and the sustainable quality of life within someone's own home.

SmartBug will be launching its Kickstarter campaign by the end of May 2021,

with the goal of introducing this smart home ecosystem to the global market.
