Nightingale sleep system
Designed by acoustics experts and audio engineers, Nightingale produces comfortable ambient sounds, called sound blankets, specifically tuned to mask unwanted noises.
These sound blankets take into account user room’s acoustics – wood floors, windows, carpet – and sleep conditions like tinnitus, or snoring from an adjacent room.
With Alexa integration, users will be able to tell Nightingale to launch a goodnight scene, or to adjust the brightness of the nightlight.
Nightingale utilizes the walls to reflect sound blankets into the space from two different units, each with two speakers for maximum sound diffusion. This creates uniform and even coverage – and means the brain can’t perceive where the sound is coming from, making it blend into the background. Nightingale can also play a range of nature sounds to ease users to sleep.
With 15 different sound blankets, Nightingale can reduce wake occurrences by masking common outdoor and indoor noises. Nightingale can be controlled via the mobile app and send weather and traffic alerts.

Belkin Wemo Wi-Fi Smart Dimmer

This smart dimmer connects to existing home Wi-Fi network to provide wireless control of lights – with no subscription or hub required.
From bedroom lights and dining room chandeliers to recessed lighting, Wemo Dimmer can control nearly anything that a traditional dimmer switch can.

The WeMo Dimmer is the best-looking WeMo gadget to date. Much of it is due to the new touch-sensitive dimming controls.

AIRMEGA 400S The smarter air purifier
Airmega’s air quality sensor tells users the quality of the air in the room in real time. The brightly colored LED ring lets users know if the air is fresh or unhealthy every minute of the day.
Airmega’s Smart Mode automatically adjusts the air filtration speed according to the room’s current air quality. When the air quality remains good for 10 minutes or more, Airmega conserves energy by shutting down the fan. If the sensor detects pollution in the air, the fan will restart automatically.
Now, with Alexa in play, owners of an Alexa-enabled device like the Amazon Echo or Echo Dot smart speakers will be able to control or monitor air quality using their voice. For example, they can say: “Alexa, turn the air purifier on,” or “Alexa, increase the air purifier’s fan speed.”
The purifier’s dual-filtration system removes 99.97percent of particulate matter from the air, while the accompanying pollution indicator allows users to monitor and manage air quality real-time.
Brink’s Array smart lock
The Brink’s Home Security Array smart lock is a cloud- and app-enabled internet of things (IoT) device that homeowners can use without adding separate hubs or accessories.
Array connects to the cloud using a home’s existing Wi-Fi router, and its advanced rechargeable power system with built-in solar panel eliminates the need to replace and discard batteries.
Users won’t be able to unlock the door with a spoken command. Amazon’s always-listening Echo can be controlled by anyone, so for security reasons, users will only be able to lock the door.

Array’s elegantly designed form factor complements Brink’s Home Security Push Pull Rotate door knobs, levers and handlesets, providing a fully hands-free way for homeowners to open their doors. ARRAY is the only smart lock that can be opened five ways: smartphone, smartwatch, tablet, durable metal keypad and traditional key.
