OPEN YOUR HOME to the SMART-PLUGINS
PLUGIN REVOLUTION
SmartBug is the first totally autonomous device with which you can automate your home or any other environment.
Through the app, you can install the smart plugins – which will not be stored in the cloud but on the device itself. But why are plugins so important? First and foremost, plugins give SmartBug endless possibilities, and in addition, since it’s an open platform it enables third party developers to create abilities which extend the application. This will truly make the device limitless and will easily support new features that can automate your entire household.
Once the device is configured through the app and you have downloaded all the plugins of your interest, SmartBug will work anywhere, even without the need of a good WiFi connection or the smartphone.
NO SMARTPHONE REQUIRED: Or at least, you’ll only need the smartphone to configure the device and download the plugins you’re interested in and then you can just forget about it. That’s right, because SmartBug stores the plugins in its own memory therefore without the need of the Cloud and will recognize your gestures easily, subsequently activating what you want.
Through its mesh network they will communicate with each other, enabling the lifestyle you desire. But what exactly is a mesh network? A mesh network is a local network topology where the nodes (in this case the switches) connect directly and not-hierarchically to the other nodes and cooperate to expertly route data. This allows all the nodes to successfully participate in the relay of information. This means that the mesh network can accurately self-organize and self-configure and this ability can enable the dynamic distribution of workloads. So, if one of the SmartBugs should fail, the function of home automation will not be compromised.

THE INFINITE POSSIBILITIES OF AN OPEN SYSTEM
The idea of making the technology behind SmartBug an open platform for developers was to give the device maximum flexibility. Therefore, if the app doesn’t have a particular plugin that the user needs, a developer can improve the possibilities unleashed by the device by creating the plugin wanted.
The SmartBug system is equipped with an easy and intuitive development environment that allows the development of applications (plugins) by third parties in a very short time. Each new plugin that is made available adds functionality to the system with a mechanism typical of open innovation.
