At ISE 2018, smart home and building automation company Hogar Controls is launching a new lineup which includes a smart button, a motion sensing camera, a video doorbell, a smart home speaker and all-in-one modules for lighting and shade control.
With a modern aesthetic look, the Pro Solutions lineup is targeted at residential and commercial markets. At the core of Hogar Pro Solutions suite is the Home Controller (HC) Pro, a compact hub that uses Z-Wave Plus, Zigbee and Wi-Fi to connect and control smart home devices. This plug-in controller is small enough to fit into any power outlet, yet powerful enough to control hundreds of smart products such as lighting, thermostats, video, sensors, locks and more.
The HC Pro can be set up through the Hogar Controls app, which homeowners can also use to control their devices or set scenes. The Hogar HC Pro is shipping internationally now and will be available in Europe in the first quarter of 2018 at US$410 with a one-year warranty.
One of the biggest challenges when building consumer and end-user customer relationships is working to provide education on the benefits of connected living. Particularly for a whole building automation system, showcasing the power of a suite of devices working together is challenging in any showroom.
To make it easy for smart home dealers with or without a showroom, Hogar Controls has created an interactive demo toolkit. The toolkit is an out of the box home and building automation and control system, with built-in devices – both audio, video and control – to show off the power of devices like video doorbells, voice control, motion sensors, climate control and more.
With a built-in screen, the toolkit is a “home in a suitcase” model that is easy to transport and gives the dealers a powerful and mobile sales tool. The Hogar Dealer Toolkit is available to qualified dealers for US$1299.
