Anyone searching for a new home automation system or
smart hub to control their home appliances, smart lighting and other electronic
appliances may be interested in a new piece of hardware called the Mixtile Hub,
created by Focalcrest based in San Francisco, California.
The Focalcrest Mixtile Hub has been specially
created to make all your smart devices work together providing local data
processing and storage together with support for voice assistance. The open
framework allows you to customise the operating system which already supports
ZigBee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices.
Using the Mixtile smart hub you no longer need to
worry about setting up bridges to control your smart lights, smart locks or any
other smart home automated device. The smart hub has been designed to bring
everything together under a single application and allows for complete
automation, not just control.
Mixtile has already raised more than US$ 26,000 thanks
to over 170 backers with still 12 days remaining on its campaign. The Indiegogo
crowdfunding campaign was started to raise a pledge goal of US$ 25,000, to take
the design into production, and now the campaign is successfully funded you can
expect worldwide shipping to commence during April 2018.
