OPEN AND FLEXIBLE,

AMEGIA SETS ITS PACE evin Wu, K CEO of Amegia

FOR SMART HOME AND IOT MARKETS

10 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

Equipped with the know-how in both consumer electronics and professional video surveillance, Kevin Wu, Taiwan's first entrepreneur having introduced network camera into the security arena, has successfully steered his four-year-old Amegia out of stagnation. Now, more openminded and extremely flexible, Amegia is constantly keeping abreast of developments concerning the smart home, ready to be the eyes of, literally, "everything."

We had spent a year and a half to develop our DIY home cameras, making them as easy as possible for consumers to use. Only when your products become that simple to use will you ever get a chance to compete in the market of consumer electronics.

2014 was a fruitful year for the video surveillance company Amegia. While other IP camera manufacturers continued struggling with dwindling profit margins, Amegiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual growth rate last year reached 330%, which is quite an achievement worth bragging about. Above all, the astounding growth heralds a glorious return to the spotlight for Kevin Wu, the CEO of Amegia. For the smart home market in 2015, he announced with elation: "We are ready to set out on it!"

The Daring Pioneer Like many veterans in the professional surveillance industry, Wu has been through ups and downs for almost 20 years. Starting out as an R&D engineer for PC peripheral devices, Wu then shifted to marketing and sales. Combining qualities of a professional technician and a shrewd businessman, he was amongst the few predecessors having foreseen at the very early stage the potential of the IP surveillance sector. "It was around 1998 when VCR was still prevalent for video recording. The launch of a 4-port video server AXIS-240 enlightened me all of a sudden," he recalled, "that it is possible to operate a camera via Internet but without a computer." Wi t h t h e l a u n c h o f A X I S - 2 4 0 , Wu soon caught a whiff of opportunity in the uncharted land of networked surveillance. To him, this gadget was actually the epitome

cover story

From these valuable trials and errors, Wu realized that the key point for a company to keep its growing pace is the ability to adjust itself to different environments accordingly.

of the promising future of IP cameras. "After going through some financial reports, I wondered how big this market would become and why most people were not seeing it yet. I even smiled unconsciously in my sleep, dreaming of the growing revenue to be yielded afterwards!" As a man of action, Wu reacted ahead of his peers. He and his friends immediately set their pace into the research of video server products. In 2000, Wu co-founded a video security company that provides both own-brand products and OEM/ODM services. It was a crucial milestone for Wu, marking his daring transition from a supplier of consumer electronics to that of professional security cameras. But it was not until 2008 when applications of IP cameras were acknowledged as the future of video surveillance. Having relished the sweet taste of success for merely 2 to 3 years, Wu's company began to face series of challenges from formidable rivals. Amongst them, the rising presence of Chinese manufacturers posed the hugest blow.

12 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

Undeterred, Wu quickly sought after a new playground. At the time, mobile applications were beginning to flourish and gradually changing the ways we live. It struck him that the prevalence of smartphones not only raised the acceptance of IP-related appliances, but they also steered the industry to cloud services â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even catering to a wide scope of home applications. These clues all indicated a brighter prospect for suppliers of consumer electronics who are involved in cloud services and the IoT. With strategies totally different from that of other video surveillance suppliers, Wu is on his way back to consumer electronics market, especially to the most promising smart home territory. Once again, this realization reignited Wu's passion for taking

Understanding Your Customers

initiatives. In 2009, after almost a decade of toiling away at IP surveillance, he established Amegia.

Multifunctional and Easy-to-Use It is a classic dilemma that you have to choose between a professional product that is too complicated to be installed by yourself, or an easy-to-use one with limited functions. Since the very day Amegia embarked on its adventure to the IoT, Wu and his partners have been determined to solve the dilemma with their 20-year know-how in both consumer electronics and professional surveillance. In 2012, Amegia applied for "Technology Development Program" offered by Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs. It was a research project on cloud surveillance that allowed users to control their cameras via computer or mobile phone. “We had spent a year and a half to develop our DIY home cameras, making them as easy as possible for consumers to use,“ said Wu. "For example, this product can directly connect to your mobile phone. You don't need any computer-operating skills or even bother inputting anything. The system will execute the configuration for you. Only when your products become that simple to use will you ever get a chance to compete in the market of consumer electronics." "As long as smart home is part of the smart city where IVA plays a key role, IVA is surly a must which will be added into home cameras besides gateway function," said Wu. At present, Amegia will focus on the IVA optimizing PIR motion detection that helps reduce false alarms and minimize the size of recorded footage. Other IVA functions, such as people counting or missing-object detection, can also be included if there are requirements from clients who figure out the need for these functions is growing in the market.

For now, Amegia provides clients only with OEM/ODM services, and the major medium bridging end users' needs to Amegia's customization capability are telecoms and retailers.

New Video-gateway Product Is on The Way

megia will launch later this year new camera models with embedded gateway functions. "Last December we started from Bluetooth protocol," Wu said. "By adding the gateway function into cameras, we guarantee users a cost-effective way to control Bluetooth devices via the same video surveillance gadget." The video-gateway product is scheduled for release in April. Products supporting Z-Wave and ZigBee are still under development and will be available in the second half of 2015.

Amegia's strategy of providing customers with multifunctional, cost-effective and easy-to-use DIY products is obviously marketdriven. When asked how Amegia develops its products accurately responding to the needs of customers, Wu proudly explained, "Our core competence is exactly the answer to that question." Based on product-development strategy with standardization on one end and localization in the other, traditional surveillance manufacturers usually locate themselves on the side of standardization, according to Wu. "The customers for video surveillance suppliers are actually system integrators, who distribute these standardized products to end users in vertical markets. However, it is a completely different story for the consumer electronics of smart home solutions suppliers,” said Wu. “The consumer electronics is horizontal, which means customers are actually end users. Suppliers have to listen to the consumer feedback and cater to the needs of certain local markets.” Given that Wu and his team started their career as consumer electronics providers, there is no barrier for Amegia to shift its standpoint from standardization to localization. For now, Amegia provides clients only with OEM/ODM services. Therefore, the major medium bridging end users' needs to Amegia's customization capability are telecoms and retailers. These main clients of Amegia, also new players in the smart home market, have crucial user-experience information in their pockets. "Because they are able to approach consumers via the last

cover story

mile, it is much easier for them to grasp what consumers really want in the DIY market," observed Wu. These clients may ask Amegia to integrate their camera modules into consumer electronics, such as intercoms that provide realtime video recording features. As long as these clients come across the threshold and reach the interior of homes, they have to provide end users with products that can communicate with other devices via different protocols. "For instance, Bluetooth connectivity and gateway functions is on the priority list to be added upon our cameras, simply due to the explicit requests from a 4G telecom operator," said Wu. By helping clients satisfy the demands from end users step by step, Amegia will gradually cultivate its ability to be the solution provider for a variety of products in the IoT ecosystem.

Open up for Collaboration “Actually, we have learned a lot from past failures,” Wu remarked. Thanks to these experiences, Amegia is able to avoid committing similar mistakes. From these valuable trials and errors, Wu realized that the key point for a company to keep its growing pace is the ability to adjust itself to different environments accordingly. That is the reason why Amegia has to take a more flexible stance. And In order to seize more opportunities in the smart home and IoT where openness is the core essence, Amegia has to be more open-minded for all kinds of collaboration. “It is unnecessary (or possible) for every manufacturer to develop each item on its own. To create the best synergy for the whole industry, companies equipped with various specialties or know-hows in different verticals should develop partnerships and collaborate,” Wu pointed out. “As far as Amegia is concerned, we continue to focus on our expertise in video-related applications. At the same time, we have to be flexible enough to cooperate with third parties in every possible ways.” Indeed, Amegia can act as a platform open for integration, helping other manufacturers enter the smart home and IoT market as soon as possible. The multifunctional home cameras they developed for telecoms and retailers are the starting point for realizing their dream. The example outlines how Amegia adjust itself for applications where the services of surveillance are required. “In the near future, our camera modules may be embedded into many electronic appliances, even on rolling shutters!” Wu said with a broad smile. “We are ready!” the vigorous entrepreneur exclaimed. Amegia has weathered through tough times and has accumulated enough experiences in the past four years. 2015 is the right time for this rising star to prevail, shining in the booming smart home market.

Exploration

All-in-One Camera: One for All According to IHS Technology, over 11 million consumer and DIY network cameras will be shipped worldwide in 2015. User awareness and acceptances of home video monitoring is increasing dramatically for the past couples of years. The launch of smart home capable cameras is further changing the market rules. In this report, we explore the role of all-in-one cameras in the smart home, and its differentiators in the marketplace. By Weili Lin / Veronica Chen

Being a part of the smart home industry, we should thank Dropcam for its exposure and popularity in the mass market. Retailers are happy that there is no shortage of similar devices being displayed on shelves and online stores. These cameras are designed for consumers to operate the camera as a standalone surveillance system without the need for separate recording hardware by utilizing cloud or edge storage. IHS forecasts over 11 million consumer and DIY network cameras to be shipped worldwide this year. IHS Research senior

Russell Ure, Executive VP & General Manager, Icontrol Networks Canada

analyst Josh Woodhouse sees a greater proportion of cameras shipped offering smart home functionality with the potential to connect with third-party or similar branded smart home systems in the future. Smart home-capable cameras sold both separately and as part of a larger smart home package will be major drivers in the consumer video surveillance market. “Cameras in the home are very much lifestyle products that invoke consumers to regularly check-in at any detected change in environment, whether it is to check if the kids are at home from school, or if their pets are okay,” Woodhouse said. “The regular events detected by camera sensors or connections with other non-video devices mean higher user engagement with the camera. This can justify potentially lucrative cloud storage add-on fees, which makes Dropcam such an attractive buy for Google’s Nest Labs.” With smarter algorithms and enhanced hardware designs, network cameras have evolved to become more intelligent and multifunctional, and to an extent that they can even function as home control hubs. For service providers, this new-type camera embodies a new market; for general users, it provides a new way of home monitoring with convenience in an affordable way.

The “All-in-One” Phenomenon Compiled by SMAhome, it’s been observed that the “all-in-one” feature has become the latest design trend in home security cameras. An all-in-one home camera should meet four criteria: 1. Motion detection and two-way communication are essential functions. 16 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

Not Only for DIY

“Cameras are critical in an automated home setup. Nothing tells you more information other than a camera. “Russell Ure, Executive Vice President & General Manager, Icontrol Networks Canada

2. Equipped with at least two to three functions, such as: Sound Detector, Temperature Sensor, Humidity Sensor, Ambient Light Detector, Air Quality Sensor, Vibration / Shock Sensor, Facial Recognition / detection, Geo-fencing, Automation Hub. 3. No professional installation is required for the camera. The user can easily set up and install the camera by himself/herself. 4. Users can view video feed via a smartphone or tablet. “The active monitoring approach is a stark contrast to the closed circuit (CCTV) analog camera and DVR systems available in many DIY stores. These systems are traditionally installed and left running until there is an event noticed by the user which requires a video review. Nevertheless, there will remain a large market for this type of equipment for more of a passive security conscious consumer,” Woodhouse said. “With the proliferation of standalone network cameras, the category has evolved beyond just security. “

Even though the all-in-one camera is mostly set for online or offline retailers, dealers and system integrators in the professional installation market have also shown a great interest. The scenario can be contributed by the mass-market activity. As mass-market products become more affordable, easier to install and easier to use, they help propel awareness in the technology from a user’s point of view. Meanwhile, they push home-control vendors and installers to change their products and their ways of doing business. “Service providers are also very interested in Piper because they can only sell traditional products to 25 percent of the market, but there are other markets that won’t buy from them because they don’t want monthly fees. We are currently undergoing trials with service providers,” exclaimed Ure of Piper, adding that it markets primarily through web stores, retailers and home networks, such as Amazon, Best Buy and Target. In terms of service providers, Icontrol has that covered with ADT, and specifically ADT Pulse, which is available through Icontrol. “In Europe, the market is even bigger because the security systems there do not feature motion detection. Its market size encompasses millions of people,” Ure said. According to some system integrators, the all-in-one camera is the iconic item that the home automation industry has been longing for – somewhat affordable, easily installable, and user-customizable solutions. For a professional installer, such product can shave 70 percent off installation time and the possible expenses usually required for experienced technicians.

Exploration

Progressive Internet connections such as 4G and LTE with improved lowpower consumption are two powerful characteristics that can push the popularity of all-in-one cameras at home. What 4G and battery power can achieve is the further evolution of a truly portable home monitoring system. Start-up companies such as Link-U and big names including Panasonic Nubo, Netgear Alro, and as such are all vying to be the first to offer portable home monitoring when shipments start later this year. Russell Ure, Executive Vice President & General Manager, Icontrol Networks Canada, sees a 500 percent growth of Piper cameras spurt this year. “The reason for believing such rise is because in North America, if you have an apartment, you cannot get a security system into an apartment because landowners wouldn’t allow you to bring installers in there. There are no other solutions for people unless it’s a Do-It-Yourself security system. That is a huge opportunity in the US – around 20 percent of the market is underserved.”

Easy to Set Up by Wireless In many cases typically found in home security cameras, the first (maybe the biggest) issue is installation. A network

camera often requires connecting wires or IP system configuration. Even for an Internet-savvy user, any disruption of the setting may undermine camera performance. MSI’s PANOCAM is one of the first Wi-Fi cameras on the market that utilizes data-over-voice technology to embody audio pairing. The user is only required to enter a WI-FI connection ID and password in PANOCAM APP. It automatically turns the data into sound for pairing. According to MSI, within one minute the initial pairing can be done. Since there is no simpler way to connect to a Wi-Fi network, users have to choose between a fixed Wi-Fi home monitoring product, a fixed professional surveillance, or a mobile video recording product. Nubo by Panasonic is the first true mobile monitoring camera that delivers 4G connectivity. “For a long time consumers have had to compromise on mobility and connectivity when it came

Software Adds Intelligence What’s more to mention is the intelligence powered by software in all-in-one cameras. Besides hardware differentiation, more value and innovation come from software. “Image intelligence that tells users what’s going on and its ability for customization based on specific needs are keys to drive the market,” said Tien-Spalding of ArcSoft. According to him, software is currently the main highlight in home security cameras, adding that “without software, there’s basically no experience, and expectations of ease of use, convenience, or relevance are now taken for granted by the average consumers. We’re excited to see that imaging intelligence is driving the future of the connected home.” Marcus of Amaryllo believes more intelligent experience is driven from stronger processing power. He thinks differentiation comes from intelligent design that makes itself different from competitors. Amaryllo’s award-winning

camera is equipped with a quad-core 1.6 GHz CPU, delivering strong computation power for multi-tasking, and value-added software features. Contrary to other similar cameras that take a passive approach, Marcus said its camera, which is more proactive, embeds action-based artificial intelligence. And also unlike other IP camera makers that use either 64 or 128-bit encryption, Amaryllo employs 256-bit encryption technology that requires stronger processing power. The balance between hardware and software is key to winning. Cohen of Whithings said, “great software must be backed by brilliant hardware in order to win. We released a cloud video recording feature that relies on a massive infrastructure at Amazon. One can access up to 30 days of continuous footing, right from their iPhone. This is a killer feature. However, this creates value because of the video sensor, infrared filter and great optics… it’s all about balance.”

to their surveillance needs, bound either by location or connectivity,” said Tijmen Vos, CTO of Panasonic Cameramanager. “Our vision is to deliver a product that allows users the freedom and flexibility of choosing where the camera can be used and the confidence in knowing that the data created is securely transmitted and stored.”

Differentiation Matters

More than just Security The beauty of an all-in-one camera is that it provides a solution beyond video monitoring. Baby/elderly care and air quality monitoring are two popular applications to be included. Besides built-in microphone, speaker and motion detection as main features, the all-in-one home camera used for baby and elderly care can come with built-in sound, temperature, and light sensors. The camera can report any temperature, sound and control light changes. For those positioned in the better-lifequality market, the camera also features detection of Volatile Organic Compound (VOC), tracking indoor air pollution and can inform homeowners of abnormal indoor air quality. Three years ago, Withings hits the market with its Smart Baby Monitor. Kevin Cohen, Product Manager, Withings indicated: “Today, with the new Withings Home, we are addressing a wider market segment ‘Home Monitoring’.” Withings’s home features a 5-megapixel video 20 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

sensor, 125-degree wide viewing angle, and one of the first HD cameras featuring air quality sensors. Meanwhile, Sapido’s IPJC2n can function as a home camera, multimedia speaker, and wireless router. Unlike most cameras that rely on home routers to connect to the cloud, IPJC2n can link directly to the cloud by connecting to home routers like any as other camera. “A home camera that offers multimedia experience is deemed one of the killer applications for users in the coming years. Consumers can have more available options when purchasing their home cameras, and not just taking security into consideration,” said Sapido Chairman Winnie Lee. Costing only $99, Guardzilla is a triangular DIY security camera with a slightly different approach on the market. Its “pet immunity” function keeps the device from triggering notifications when in contact with small animals in the home. An overwhelming number of American households lack home protection. “Unlike competitors, Guardzilla generates a siren alarm and streams video in real-time. Additionally, the system can connect to more than one smartphone, allowing multiple homedwellers to stay connected. Cameras should be feature rich and easy to use,” said Ted Siebenman, CEO and President, Guardzilla. Ure of Piper believes the inclusion of sensors and hubs in home cameras has become new trendsetters. “If you look at Piper, it has everything inside it. You don’t have to think about buying other sensors and as such because it’s all there – the camera and hub all integrated into one device.”

Jeffrey Wu, President, StarVedia

Spurred by an influx of camera makers on the market, manufacturers are enhancing video quality, easy setup and killer features in order to remain competitive. Piper has the latest version by adding night-view feature. The new launch is being redesigned with twice the resolution. It has a 180-degree field of view camera. “When we talk about night vision, it tends to shine right in front and creates a bright ring around where you are looking. In a 180-degree field of view camera you need to have it diffused, so this newly designed plastic allows it to shine very gently, illuminating the entire night of view,” Ure explained. The version also comes with the latest

Without software, there’s basically no experience, and expectations of ease of use, convenience, or relevance are now taken for granted by the average consumers.

Series 500 Z-Wave Controller to provide enhanced capability. Featuring weather resistant and sensor connectivity through an integrated wireless radio, Panasonic Nubo is designed for both indoor and outdoor usage. Additional sensor controls enable the detection of human figures, enabling more tailored alerts and alarms for the user. Nubo also offers two-way communication, allowing the user to communicate through the camera when an alert is triggered. “Video quality, motion and noise timeline on the smartphone, and cloud video recording are must-haves. In the future, geo-fencing and person detection will definitely be killer features,” said Cohen of Withings. Furthermore, StarVedia’s IC717Z supporting Z-Wave connectivity can also work as a Z-Wave home gateway. Functioning more than just a video monitoring camera with built-in temperature and PIR sensors, it features Infrared thermometer and temperature alarm control. For added-value, the company adopts dual lens technology for a clearer day and night vision. Jeffrey Wu, President of StarVedia believes a real smart home products provide smart connectivity like what IFTTT offers instead of merely remotely control. Wu added, “to stay competitive, it’s essential to offer differentiated products rather than focusing on price competition. “ ArcSoft, the company behind simplicam, believes imaging intelligence is at the forefront of innovation in this space. Face detection and recognition capabilities can add value to the home security camera, making it stand out from other related devices. “We believe what's really needed in the home camera market is imaging intelligence,” said Caroline Tien-Spalding, Senior Director of Product Marketing, ArcSoft. “For a long time, the home security camera market geared towards techies. That's changing right now. The sophistication we've come to expect from smartphones is coming to the smart home market, and 22 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

Creator and founder of Piper, Russell Ure, also shared his viewpoints on the burgeoning smart home. Q: What role do you think the camera plays in a smart home? Cameras are critical in an automated home setup. Nothing tells you more information other than a camera. People have much more comfort with a camera now than it used to 10 years ago. The secret of success for the smart home right now is simplicity because consumers are not going to buy tons of parts. The smart home is going to evolve, but slowly. Most companies think it is going fast, but in reality it is not. Q: Will Piper consider working with Apple’s HomeKit or Google Nest in the future? Well, from a Piper point of view that is not our main priority. There are other divisions of Icontrol that are already working with Nest. If we try to give too many things for consumers to connect, it will only confuse them. Piper alone is enough. You can only move as fast as consumer education, which at the current pace it’s moving slowly. Piper has a sensor platform that covers temperature, humidity, lights, sound and motion. Most cameras out there do motion detection through the camera image. But for Piper, it uses infrared which is much more reliable. Because security systems have been using infrared detection for over 20 years, we chose to implement infrared technology in our camera. Q: Do you think the mobile phone plays a key role in the smart home? Yes, the mobile phone is currently the main computer resource for most people. It’s an important technology but it’s not going to be as important in a few years because there will be more and more automated interfaces in a smart home of the future. Q: And what about wearable devices? In the next five years we will definitely see more and more intelligence and anticipation around the smart home. I believe smart home devices will become more automated in the future to an extent that users wouldn’t have to use a mobile phone or wearable to turn on the light for example. The way I see it is that they will continue to play a significant role during that transition.

cameras are no exception. We believe new developments in imaging intelligence such as face recognition are at the forefront of the value-add package consumers now expect,” she added. Nevertheless, Ure of Piper holds slightly back on facial recognition. “Right now we have video analytics in development. Facial recognition is only partially useful because what if it doesn’t recognize a face coming through the door? It wouldn’t be able to provide enough information to take action from a security point of view. Facial recognition can provide another piece of information but by itself it’s not the biggest selling feature,” he commented. Amaryllo positions itself as the world’s pioneer in home security robot market, and calls its award-winning camera iCamPRO a home security robot. “Our robots can see, hear, seek, and track moving objects even in darkness and from behind,” said C.T. Marcus, Yang. Its camera features patented auto-tracking technology with high sensitivity powered by three built-in motion sensors—one at the front and two on both sides. The robots are able to ”see” intruders and turn themselves to face

where the intruders are coming from, even from behind. To establish network capacity at launch, Panasonic Nubo has moved a step further by working closely with world-leading wireless carriers. Vodafone will be the first partner to provide Nubo with 4G Machine-toMachine (M2M) network connectivity in Europe. The integration of camera, app, storage and data ensures a turnkey solution for users. According to IHS, concepts such as the FLIR FX, which combines a portable home monitoring camera with both a dashboard and action camera, provides a glimpse into another potentially interesting direction for the category. Let us embrace a new era brought by all-in-one home cameras.

support many platforms. For example, our wireless thermostats can fit for low-cost entry-level 2GIG security platform and ELAN, the high-end whole-home control brand. At Nortek Security & Control, there are three brands, Linear, GoControl, and 2GIG, to serve three different markets—commercial access control, DIY smart home, and security dealers/telecos. GoControl is our brand for DIY smart home devices and can be purchased by consumers directly through retail channels, dealers or online stores. Linear will focus on developing solutions for the CCTV, access control and commercial security markets. 2GIG will continue to expand as an integrated security and home control platform for dealers and major telecommunication providers. As a leading Z-Wave supplier, we sold products in both installer and retail channels. Regarding business models, we provide branded, white-brand, private-label and unbranded products to the marketplace. We have unique advantage to deliver not only the platform for home control like 2GIG, but also the products that are attached to the platform. Our strategy is to provide products to support both our and partners’ platforms. For instance, our products can connect to Wink, Nexia and Vivint. Our products like our wireless garage door controller under the GoControl brand are sold as standalone products or go with partners’ Systems like Lowe’s Iris. We try to make our products compatible with popular standards for interoperability that is essential to the home automation market. So far, wireless is important for our residential solutions, accounting for 70 percent of our installed systems. We support Z-Wave standard that has the largest installed base. Wi-Fi is the second largest wireless standard at home. We make our products compatible with Z-Wave and Wi-Fi to support most platforms like Wink at present. Hardwire solution is still needed for builder and commercial markets.

Q: What do you think about the home automation market? Is it a win-win strategy to work with the home automation companies? Security system is the first foray into the connected home.

Dexatek Smart Home Package Grants Users Greater Autonomy

he essential part of smart home is about how to guarantee every user a lifestyle he or she would love to have, and it requires a powerful system to develop a highly customized service. On the basis of the comprehensive product lines which range from hardware design and manufacturing, software to cloud services, Dexatek is capable of creating a BLE-based total solution precisely catering to a variety of demands from home users worldwide.

Control Your Home Freely via Standalone Connection

One of the main features of Dexatek’s Smart Home package is its ability to provide direct control over peripheral devices simply via a smartphone or tablet without the intervention of a gateway. This near-field "standalone" communication allows users to group any home devices together more freely. For instance, a novice user usually purchase individual gadgets for certain simple purpose where an expensive gateway is unwelcomed. All he or she needs to do is connect these devices via the Bluetooth connection on a cell phone. In this way the user can easily communicate with these devices right through the smart phone. In a more complicated application where a gateway often plays the control center and connects to a cloud server via Wi-Fi, however, this standalone connection will become a reliable backup in case of any unexpected network shutdown.

Schedule A Smarter Life

Dexatek’s Smart Link System (SLS) is capable of linking devices in a smarter way, which means devices can talk with each other and then users can make schedules for specific devices to interact under certain conditions. For example, the dehumidifier will be turned on spontaneously as soon as the weather sensor detects that the amount of moisture goes too high. After work, the air conditioner will be

activated when you are 200 meters close to home. All these automations are achieved according to the scenarios you preset via SLS.

Secure Your Privacy

Smart home makes life more convenient and comfortable, but at the same time, more vulnerable to hackers. Dexatek’s Smart Home package helps relieve the fear against the invasion of privacy with its special Dynamic Authentication Security System (DASS), which turns your home into a fortress where home devices are exclusively under control of your family members. By adopting the 128 bit bank-level AES key exchange, DASS assures that every data exchange is completed via certain pin code and therefore block malicious attacks from the outside of your house.

Let Users Decide!

A smart home should adapt itself to different lifestyles of various end users. And Dexatek's full range of smart home products and powerful systems will help service providers, such as telcos, MSOs or system integrators, to realize the dream. With this smart home package, end users can decide their ways of life by customizing their smart homes themselves easily and securely.

Bosch’s Smart Home Vision:

Broadening Market Scope through

One Single Platform By Weili Lin

Smart home is one of Bosch’s promising business domains. Bosch has been making aggressive movements toward smart homes by introducing smart home solutions for home convenience, efficiency and security in 2015. In partnership with ABB and Cisco, Bosch delivers a software-based open platform to open doors to smart homes in a broad way. Dr. Thorsten Müller, CEO of Bosch Connected Devices and Solutions talked about strategies, new product portfolios and observations on smart home markets.

Q: Bosch is a leader in the commercial security industry. Please introduce your strategies and action plans toward the booming home market. The largest barrier for adoption of smart home technology is the lack of interoperability among different products. There are lots of connectivity standards like Z-Wave, ZigBee, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy and DECT. What customers really want is not the specific standard, but the interoperability among those devices. We are trying to offer a unified and open platform to achieve connected life. We closed the deal to acquire the 50 percent equity stake in BSH Home Appliances Corporation (BSH) to make the company a 100 percent Bosch company since 2015. It’s one of the cornerstones of the smart home technology for Bosch. With Home Connect technology and the app launched last year, home users can control and connect different branded home appliances through one app. They will benefit f ro m a m o r e c o n v e n i e n t a n d comfortable lifestyle by managing everyday chores with ease. The other cornerstone is the joint venture with ABB and CISCO. The joint venture goes international in 34 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

a broad way, not for Germany only. We opt for open standards to partner with other parties in the ecosystem—I think that’s the way to go for Internet of Things. We are forming a joint venture to realize true interoperability from the cloud end. This joint venture is all about software, and responsible for back-end cloud services. Each system here transverses with its own server, and the servers are interconnected. User can interconnect with overall systems by smartphones, tablet PCs or any mobile devices. Data security is an important issue when talking about the cloud service, especially to Europeans who are sensitive to privacy issues. All of our devices provide M2M data security, and we have in-house software engineers for that. Regarding data privacy, our customer can decide which data he wants to share with Bosch and which data he wants to keep private. Regarding business models, we do it in a B2B relationship by offering products under Bosch’s or customers’ labels. We offer not just sensor modules, but also ready-to-use devices for consumers.

Talk

Q.As a leading microelectrochemical system (MEMS) supplier, do you see the development trend from the component side? Bosch Connected Devices and Solutions was founded at the end of 2013. Our role is to provide connectivity components to the whole Bosch group to make our products interoperable. The sensor technology is our core. We leverage our competencies in electronics, sensor technology and software to enable new business models for global markets with innovative connected devices and tailormade solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT). Moreover, the wireless networked smart sensors with embedded software are considered the enabler for the IoT. We believe Internet of Things (IoT) drives MEMS sensor proliferation after consumer electronics. For example, we launched one of world’s first environmental sensors called BME680 combining pressure, humidity, temperature and indoor air quality sensing functions at the CES this year. The component is applied for indoor microclimate adjustment that can be a big market to watch.

Q: Bosch launched a Z-Wave home security system. Does Bosch support specific standards for home products? We are open to every standard that our customers want. Therefore, our solutions support Wi-Fi, Z-Wave, ZigBee, BLE, GSM and LoRa, a new connectivity standard developed by Semtech. Though our smart home products support both wired and wireless standards, we opt for wireless one because it’s much easier for the retrofit installation. Home users are not building the house. Also, going wireless is a much easier way to connect things. 36 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

We are open to every standard that our customers want. We opt for wireless one because it's much easier for the retrofit installation.

Q: Which application is the most promising? From my perspective, it depends on the geographic area. Europe is one of the main drivers for smart home from my perspective. In Europe, energy saving, green technology, that’s really what our German customers are asking for. The German government will shut off all nuclear power plants, and targets to have 80 percent of renewable energy by 2050. We offer a smartphone-controllable solution to combine the photovoltaic and heat pump system for home users to improve the energy efficiency and do energy management. But if you look at the North American market, the market demands are different. From my perspective, security and convenience are two major drivers. In Asia, if you go to Beijing, air quality is a big issue. In addition, home entertainment is a big thing for the US and Asia markets. That’s also the reason why our company now opens offices both in Chicago and Shanghai because we really want to have a global reach, and don’t just think about Europe. We want to have a balanced geographical outreach in sales, marketing and production.

tarting April 28-30, 2015, more than 3,000 international home security and smart home makers, researchers, high-tech innovators and business professionals will congregate at the Taipei World Trade Center Nangang Exhibition Hall (TWTC Nangang) to share information, gather knowledge, source products, and explore the possibilities ahead in the field of DIY connected home and professional home automation. With technology showcases, innovation demonstrations, technical tours, hands-on experiences, networking events, and a pool of experts specializing in everything from key components, home network cameras, gateways, controllers, intercom, smart locks, software/platform to connected home kits and solutions, the Smart

In line with Taiwanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s superior IT framework, Networks & IC industries, Taiwan manufacturers in the telecom and connected-home fields are also known globally for their competitive edge in production efficiency and high quality.

Home International Conference & Exhibition 2015 is an event not to be missed. According to the show organizer, SMAhome and Secutech is the best combination for international professionals in recognition of Secutechâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s security heritage and its leadership in developing security market connections. In the various vertical markets of security technology, residential security is one of the promising areas. And for security professionals who are interested in expanding business territories, smart home can be a fitting leap, because security is the key among the five smart home sectors: Security, Energy, Healthcare, Entertainment and Auto Controlling. In line with Taiwanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s superior IT framework, Networks & IC (Integrated Circuit) industries, Taiwan manufacturers in the telecom and

As one of the most highly anticipated events of the year, the Smart Home International Conference & Exhibition 2015 is finally coming live to Taipei, Taiwan this month. The SMAhome editorial team has taken the effort to highlight several key attractions in what promises to be the greatest home security and smart home showcases ever.

connected-home fields are also known globally for their competitive edge in production efficiency and high quality. The venue features an array of Taiwan makers who are able to churn out state-of-the-art devices and high-valueadded solutions. Exhibitors, buyers and visitors can meet top-tier technology service providers from Taiwan, such as Chicony, Climax, D-Link, Foxconn, Unitech, StarVedia, and as such to develop smart home partnerships.

Innovation Showcase It is certainly an exciting time for us with regard to technology and how it’s being applied to smart home systems, says managing director of Messe Frankfurt New Era Business Media Parson Lee, the show organizer. The “Express Center” will also be held during the show period.

The “Express Center” is an amenity where busy buyers can have a preview of 30 selected special products amongst the surplus of 500 show exhibits of smart home.”

“It’s an amenity where busy buyers can have a preview of 30 selected special products amongst the surplus of 500 show exhibits,” Lee explains. “If you see something interesting, let our staff in the center know. They will be happy to arrange you a meeting with the product maker.” One element that we are particularly looking forward to is the gateway or hub. Smartening up a home begins with installing a hub. This gadget serves as a linguistic bridge between different protocols, letting ZigBee devices talk to Z-Wave, and both of them talk to gadgets that run on Wi-Fi or other wireless standards. At the show, exhibitors such as D-Link, Unitech, Climax will be displaying the smart home hub, also known as the “brain” in an automated home setup. For those looking for home cameras, this event is a “buyer’s wonderland.” More than 50% of exhibitors will be showcasing network cameras ranging from economical type to all-in-one cameras that combine

sensors such as sound detector, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, ambient light detector, air quality sensor, vibration/shock sensor, and so forth. “Our show highlights premier Asian makers for buyers’ better sourcing efficiency. They are able to navigate hassle-free around the showground to find good suppliers,” Lee explains. Sensors, on the other hand, are fundamental for the smart home. Smart home systems rely on a number of sensors to gain understanding of the environment and to enable devices respond accordingly. Today’s sensors are increasingly smart, cheap, compact and power-efficient, each of which are crucial factors in pushing the market towards a truly practical and affordable smart home solution worthy of mass-market adoption. “We are seeing an increasing number of exhibitors launching multifunctional sensors with built-in wireless connectivity. They are also emphasizing user experience—users can easily find sensors that are cheap and easy to set up, measure multiple elements, and interact with a variety of devices through wireless communication protocols. And they last for years without a battery change,” Lee comments.

Simple Affordable ULE Offers

and

Smart Home

By Weili Lin

Ultra Low Energy (ULE), inherited from worldwide-adopted DECT technology, is a new connected home technology with strong market presence in Europe. Starting in January 2013, the alliance has over 60 members before attending CES 2015. The number has been increasing. The alliance offers open source platform, free of charge, to software developers for fast development and market penetration.

ULE Alliance made its first appearance in the US at International CES 2015 with demonstration from eight member companies, Arcadyan, Crow, Dialog Semiconductor, DSP Group, Gigaset, Lantiq, Panasonic and VTech Communications. Gigaset, a spin-off from Siemens, already released ULEcompatible products in six European countries. The ULE Alliance sets its mission to assist OEMs to develop smart home solutions. Its members comprise component suppliers, telcos, OEM/ODM manufacturers, and hardware suppliers from home security, automation and climate control industries. Other major players are Deutsche Telekom, Huawei, Cisco, Netgear, Binatone, Xyzel, Sercomm, TECOM, Everspring, NEC, and so on. “What make ULE standard stand out in comparison with other technologies are long operation range, less interference and easy-touse user experience,” said Avi Barel, Business Development Director of ULE Alliance. Users can just put the devices everywhere you want, and they are ready to use. He addressed, “Most important of all, DECT is a mature technology. On people’s minds, DECT works.”

Clean frequency and ease of use What’s unique of ULE is its performance and distance. ULE is alone on the 1.9GHz frequency 92 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

band, the frequency is clean with much less interference than others like 2.4GHz. Barel said, “ULE has dedicated communication frequency that is not interfered with others. Besides, the standard can transmit strong signal and long range without repeaters and extra things after you buy a wireless system. It translates into easy installation and use.” The operation range of ULE-compatible products reaches up to 1,000 feet from the bridge or base station in open area, and up to 200 feet within the building through the walls. Furthermore, the transfer rate of ULE reaches 1Mbps, similar to Bluetooth, enabling users to transmit data, voice, controlling information and limited videos. “We are simple without complex things—just as you use your cordless telephone system,” said Barel. He indicated that people easily connect their cordless telephones to the smart home area—a natural extension from the DECT standard to ULE.

Cost effective Besides ease of use, affordability is also important. ULE, built on DECT cordless phone technology, benefits from the low cost of chip technology. Over 3 billion chipsets are shipped, being used in hundreds of millions of cordless phone sets. Also, the standard uses single chip solution to achieve cost effectiveness. “There should be low-cost product for the mass market. We make smart home products more affordable,” added Barel. Coming from the DECT community, the alliance believes it can offer low-cost solutions for the mass market. “The DECT telephone system is cheaper than a family pizza in Europe. That’s where we are coming from. We offer chips for cost-sensitive products.” He believes ULE can realize true DIY solutions without repeaters, technicians and installers as well as extra cost from hardware spending and service fees.

Home Standard,

ZigBee Alliance Director of Strategic Marketing Ryan Maley spoke to SMAhome editorial team about the benefits brought by the new ZigBee 3.0 standard, and also provided his vivid observations of the US smart home market.

market approach

By Weili Lin

Q: How do you see the global smart home market? What are the applications that fuel growth? The US has been the early leader in this regard. There are more sales generated in the US, with Europe and Asia trailing behind. The growth of the US market has been the fastest, driven by service providers. I believe 2015 and 2016 will be the years of the smart home because all these products are now available to consumers. The price points are low enough and people understand the value. Furthermore, consumer awareness has been increasing. We see a lot of growth from cable companies in the US, such as Comcast, Rogers, Time Warner Cable, and telecom operators like Swisscom and Deutsche Telekom in Europe. They offer managed service because it is a source of business. Previously, they sell you Internet, and now they can also sell you monitoring service. We think that drives the professional installer market. Regarding product categories, we believe connected lighting will pose the largest growth. The second is the smart home applications that cover home monitoring, security, or home automation products like switches and window shades. The third area is energy efficiency devices, such as smart meters and thermostats. 96 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

ZigBee Alliance Director of Strategic Marketing Ryan Maley

Personal safety is what matters to people the most. I look upon home monitoring as protecting the people and home itself.

Based on industry reports, there will be about 223 million bulbs sold each year by 2017, of which around 70 percent of those connected bulbs will be ZigBee-based. If you look at what market leaders are doing, such as Philips, OSRAM and GE, they account for over 60 percent of lighting sales in Europe, and they have all chosen ZigBee. The market is driven by those big companies who have chosen ZigBee as the basis for their connected lighting. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean there wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be other technologies, but the market leaders have chosen ZigBee. Also, leading service providers like Comcast, Swisscom and Deutsche Telecom all have ZigBee solutions today.

Q:As home security is the top reason for buying smart home devices, what are your perspectives on the market? Personal safety is what matters to people the most. A burglar is not likely to intrude my home, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always worried about gas or water leak. I look upon home monitoring as protecting the people and the home itself. ZigBee focuses on home safety and keeping the home value. We can see smoke detector, CO2 detector, water and leak detector supporting ZigBee standard. We believe more and more device types will adopt ZigBee, including some sensors for food safety and other kinds of things to make everything safer. But we think the biggest story is that more devices will be interoperable.

Q: Please describe to us the new ZigBee 3.0 standard, such as its enhancement over the previous version. ZigBee 3.0 is a unification of our international standards into a single standard for Internet of Things (IoT) for home automation,

Smart devices need to be small, low power, easy to install and easy to configure. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what ZigBee was designed for. ZigBee uses 2.4 GHz to make it ready to use anywhere in the world. If you build one product here from the U.S., it could be sold anywhere, like Philips Hue bulbs that are actually sold over 120 countries.

Q: Is the home appliance market promising?

lighting, energy management, smart appliance, security, sensors, and health care monitoring products. That means current ZigBee Certified products based on ZigBee Home Automation and ZigBee Light Link are interoperable with ZigBee 3.0. It supports both easy-to-use DIY installations as well as professionally installed systems. So if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a product developer, you will not have to choose which market to go after. Green Power is an important new feature. There are some other technologies that can perform energy harvesting, but only ZigBee does it in a mesh, and available around the world.

ZigBee uses 2.4GHz to make it ready to use anywhere in the world.

We have not seen growth in ZigBee in home appliances. It takes about 10 or 15 years to change appliances like a refrigerator or stove, much longer than a light bulb or a smartphone that you change every 2 years or even every 6 months. But not everyone is changing their refrigerator all the time or their stove. So I think growth is much slower.

GreenPeak:

“Smart” Devices Lifestyle Coaches are Becoming By Veronica Chen

SMAhome has had the pleasure to sit down with GreenPeak CEO, Cees Links to talk about his IoT perspectives on the smart home development.

Q:What role does a sensor play in the smart home? It is quickly becoming lifestyle coach. A lifestyle coach helps you live healthier and better. People call this a sensor. A smart sensor can collect all the data, and inform you things like “you should go to bed earlier,” or “you should exercise more,” and so forth. Whether you sleep long enough or need to watch out for your health, it is all about the lifestyle. It is not a fitness band, but a lifestyle coach. If you have smart sensors in your home, they can send information to a gateway, which then goes to the cloud and into the data center for data analytics. An alert is then sent to your smartphone.

cloud, they can over the course of time learn whether anybody is at home so that they can automatically lock all the doors. But what if all of a sudden one of the doors fails to lock and nobody’s at home? What can the system do? It can either send me a message or lock the door. In short, it plays the role of a butler. The smart home is not only about having a lot of sensors, but about being “smart.” The smart home is not only about having a lot of sensors, but about being “smart.” GreenPeak CEO, Cees Links

Q: So, are you saying that people are emphasizing too much on the sensor in a smart home? I think the smart home will be the hype in 2015. We will have lots of resolutions this year because the real smart home is about having the whole system. And until the day we come to understand the whole system and can deliver it to consumers, only geeks will buy sensors.

Q: So the entire process is IoT? Yes, the entire process is IoT, but the sensor is not. It is necessary, but if you go to loT companies they present themselves as sensor companies. Sensors are boring. I paid 80 dollars and it would be just a sensor. And if it breaks, I’m not going to buy a new one. But, if the sensor can coach you on how to live a healthier life, it’s more meaningful. The IoT system, in a smart home sense, talks about the sensor, such as door sensor, thermostats, and door locks. For example, when door sensors give out information to the March/April 2015 mySMAhome.com 99

Talk

Q: Do you think the whole system is ready yet? Yes, the system is ready, but the market is not. We have done our first launch. This system has four sensors. For instance, my mother lives alone, she’s 84, and she gets up every morning at eight. If she doesn’t get up by nine, I will get a message, which then I can give her a call and ask if everything is okay. So what is the value? It’s definitely not the sensor. The value is that I know my mother is okay. Another example would be the smart meter for the home. Once there was a leak in the water pipe in our basement. It happened for days because I don’t normally go down the basement every day. What we want is a smart meter that sends out messages telling us of the leakage so that we can deal with the situation immediately. In the market today, we see a lot of meters with built-in sensors, but they are actually connected meters. What we need are “smart” meters. A smart meter will find out the leak, send out a message to the owner, and then shut off the water supply. That is the true definition of IoT. I think the market still has to be developed and educated a bit more.

Q:Are you currently working with sensor companies? We are currently working with OEMs in Taiwan, China and South Korea. We deliver them the chips, and they have since sold over thousands of our chipsets. So what I’m saying is that the market needs to be built because otherwise our products will only be sold to geeks and not to everyone else.

Q: What are your observations about the smart home players in Asia, and Taiwanese device makers in particular? Let’s take a Taiwanese OEM 100 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

Companies like Taiwanese OEM’s can help educate the world on what it takes to sell smart home devices.

manufacturer as an example. It gets a contract from a thermostat brand company, and that company says they want a smart sensor. That OEM should tell their counterpart that they can deliver the sensor, but the brand comapny will only be successful if it has the whole system because in doing so will enable them to ship millions of sensors as opposed to thousands. Companies like Taiwanese OEM’s can help educate the world on what it takes to sell smart home devices. They can become the educator, like GreenPeak.

Q: Do you think leading brands such as Honeywell, Bosch or GE understand the concept of having the whole ecosystem? We are learning, but we still have a lot to learn. This is the real theme of the IoT. The theme part is that it applies to the smart home and any other IoT system. For example, parking garages. You can have a sensor to tell you whether the parking lot is free or if there is a car on the lot. The value is that you can communicate with the driver, informing him/ her that the parking lot is vacant or full, and whether the driver needs to look for another spot elsewhere. Again, as I said earlier, the value is not in the sensor, but instead getting the message over to the user.

What is your main focus this year? Our goal is to sell as many chips as possible because we hope people will come to understand the true value of our system in the IoT. The smart home currently needs a lot of education in this respect. It is moving at a slow pace. But as soon as people understand that the smart home is not only about sensors, the market will start to pick up from there. The day people start calling “smart” parking lot instead of “parking lot with sensors”, I believe it is an indicator that people have come to understand the IoT.

Data Storage at Home For data storage in residences, homeowners typically go for hard drives, memory cards, or USB drives; more tech-savvy ones might even opt for either personal network-attached storage (NAS) devices or cloud drives. Thanks to improved networking technology and infrastructure, consumers may opt for cloud storage for convenient data access from anywhere and its extendable storage space.

Apacer Technology Inc. offers a personal cloud drive specially designed for home called the “Apacer Cloud Drive”. The cloud drive serves as an IoT platform that can easily connect all devices at home with Apacer’s cloud server to allow remote control of these devices. It also features P2P technology that can bypass the vertical hierarchy of network structure. In addition, the company leverages the computing power of its cloud server by moving part of the processing to the cloud. For example, if the user needs to find a particular video, the Apacer Cloud Drive would send a file index to the cloud server to process. And when it is done processing, a command would be sent to the device to show the video the user wants. “We want to simplify the operation in the smart home so that anyone can use. Our team is devoted to delivering enhanced user experiences, so that users would interact with the device 102 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

more frequently,” said Dairo Wang, director of the Innovative Application Product Department at Apacer. With the burgeoning DIY home security products in the smart home market, such as smart cameras and door/window sensors, self-monitoring is a popular choice for homeowners. Simply install one or more smart home cameras around the house, and users will be able to keep things in check even when they are away from home. With supporting mobile apps provided by camera makers, live streaming or stored footages can be viewed from a remote location. As most videos or photos taken on home cameras are intended for private use, choosing a storage solution that ensures data privacy is crucial. This is why more and more consumers choose home NAS or other local storage devices as private data storage media. Other considerations include easy setup and management for the users.

Smart Home Cameras with Storage Capacity Today, the majority of smart home cameras adopt local or remote storage. For cameras such as Netatmo Welcome, data is stored on a local SD card. Other cameras including Dropcam Pro or HomeMonitor

HD store data to the cloud for free or for a monthly fee. For example, the latter offers 30 days of cloud storage for free, whereas the former charges a recurring fee for cloud storage based on storage duration. The growing smart home camera market propels the demand of highcapacity memory card. “We are excited to enter this emerging market with a product that marks a significant milestone for the company and industry,” said Dinesh Bahal, vice president, product marketing, SanDisk. “We recognized that today’s auto and home video monitoring systems require more demanding memory solutions.” SanDisk has developed a proprietary technology and process to enable high-intensity recording, a 64GB microSDxC/microSDHC/microSD card that allows consumers to write and rewrite up to 10,000 hours of Full HD video recording.

Integration with NAS Expands NVR Systems Up until recent years, NAS has mostly been used for businesses that require specialized file servers. However, since NAS solution providers have made their way into the consumer market, more personal NAS options for the smart home are expected. To lower the barrier of entry for consumers, companies are putting significant efforts into simplifying the setup process and creating a fluid user interface with intuitive functions, such as drag-anddrop. At home, NAS commonly acts as a hub that centralizes file storage, streaming, syncing, and sharing. Remote access is possible through web portals or designated apps. Companies like Synology, QNAP Systems, and ASUSTOR have developed their own NAS-based NVR systems for the home through dedicated surveillance software on the NAS. Synology offers Diskstation Manager as the operating system of its NAS devices, in which Surveillance Station is a critical application devoted to providing intelligent monitoring and video management tools. Through integration with AXIS Network Door Controller solutions, Surveillance Station offers advanced integration of surveillance and access control for users.

“We pair access logs from AXIS Network Door Controller solutions with our surveillance videos, so you can click on the time of access for playback to see if there is a match in identification,” said Max Wu, product manager at Synology. QNAP offers a dedicated Surveillance Station app that run on its Turbo NAS. “The app provides the full feature set of a professional home surveillance system without any complicated setup, and has compatibility with a wide range of IP cameras from popular and mainstream brands,” said David Tsao, product manager at QNAP. ASUSTOR has created App Central to complement its NAS devices, where over 160 apps are available free for download. Just install the Surveillance Center App, and your ASUSTOR NAS gets turned into your home surveillance center right away. James Su, product manager in the Sales & Marketing Division at ASUSTOR, said, “Surveillance Center 2.3 is a simple-to-use solution that expands on the functionalities of previous versions. It supports Event Action Rules, which allows users to customize and automate actions based on events. For example, when one camera is down, you can set for another camera to start recording automatically and for alerts to be sent via email or push notifications.” In this feature, we have compiled 13 data storage solutions for home.

They integrated our energy harvester in a switch that enables it to generate electricity when you press it and power 2.4 GHz radio communication to control the hue LED lighting system. The switch is innovative, it can brighten and dim or change the LED colors. That is an example of us powering things such as ZigBee with energy harvesting. We actually can enable any ultra-low power radio to be operated by energy harvesting.

Smart Home Still Growing My opinion is that smart home is still growing. Markets always seem to take a bit longer to develop. Some of it is that the application takes time as the technology behind it takes time to mature. And then consumers need the time to understand and benefit from it. As in the example with the home security system in North America, initially it was

If you have that system in your house, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an easy extension to add a thermostat and other devices that work with it. We are seeing pretty dramatic improvements in the technology, the connectivity, reduction in cost, and more awareness in the part of the consumer which we think will accelerate in the adoption.

How much does it cost, how easy it is to install, and how reliable it is will always be some of the questions consumers ponder. Joe Dada, CEO of Insteon

By Weili Lin / Lingo Lin

Insteon: Reliability and Range are Critical in the IoT Space “We’ve demolished barriers in order to reach the broadest customer demographic,” Dada said. Insteon has partnered with tech giants Google, Apple and Microsoft to help it reach the broadest possible markets. According to Insteon, the leverage is enormous because they hope to build a large audience whereby for every product they build, it can reach users over half a billion compatible phones and tablets, whether it’s iOS, Android or Windows. The partnerships deliver a big difference to Insteon. Before these platforms came along previously, if a company wanted to support a manufacturer’s light bulb, it had to write codes for that manufacturer. Now, according to Insteon, it can just write codes for the platform and gets all the compatible light bulbs. “We can do one product development cycle and reach a very large audience. Likewise, on the software side, we can do one app-development cycle. Instead of gaining support of a single brand, we gain support of numerous brands,” said Dada.

Insteon, which recently announced its $39.99 new hub late last December, puts its ahead of the competition in terms of retail price. Joe Dada, CEO of Insteon, spoke to mySMAhome. com that the price range is introductory, and the company is looking to offer the hub for free in the Insteon kit sometime in the near future.

DIY versus SI According to Dada, there is a lot of overlap of the two markets. “A lot of people might buy something in the store to bring it home and install it, and that very same person might hire someone to install a different product for them,” he indicated. Dada sees a big difference between the service providers that are charging steep monthly fees and the rest of the marketplace. He explained that for the most part, service providers are definitely an installer-based-only-channel. But increasingly there will be more and more blending of the two. Dada said, “I believe we are going to see more consumers adding both systems. Most of these items are not that difficult to install where many of them are just plugging and screwing. Why in the world would you need an installer to do that?” If the product in the application is designed right, the consumer should be more than ready to install it, he added.

Insteon Equates to Reliability and Range

While leading standards such as Z-Wave and ZigBee continue to battle it out head-to-head, Insteon goes by its own protocol that employs a dual-mesh networking topology in which all devices are peers and can each autonomously transmit, receive and repeat messages. The Insteon standard enables devices to interoperate through powerline and RF technology. “Both frequencies can be used simultaneously and can generate by far the greatest range and reliability,” Dada explained. “The way we do it is very scalable so it’s common that our customers have hundreds of our products in the house. You can’t do it reliably with the other two technologies.” Consumers demand reliability. By throwing electrical wires to the mix, range and reliability are significant factors with which consumers consider before making a device purchase. “Reliability is really important in this space. When you can’t see what you are controlling, it’s really important to know that it works right.” Dada added.

Communication between Standards Like a language barrier, the different protocols cannot communicate with one another, such as Wi-Fi radio cannot talk to Bluetooth radio, or Insteon radio cannot talk to ZigBee or Z-Wave. However, through the use of hubs or routers, it can be achieved. Dada stressed, “I think people make too much about the technologies. It’s about the product, it’s about the consumer, and it’s about the experience. How much does it cost, how easy it is to install, and how reliable it is will always be some of the questions consumers ponder.” “In the end, consumers will make their choice,” Dada said.

and easy to interact with the systems, or consumers will not engage with the technology,” said Eaton. He added, “What we’ve learned from talking to consumers is that easy-to-use solutions are what they want because home automation can be so confusing. If they have to learn how to interact with the system, it can be very frustrating. If it’s too hard for consumers to use, there will be barriers to getting what they want,“ said Eaton. Honeywell launched its Lyric thermostat to enter the smart home market Honeywell’s smart controller features Smart Action last year. The company showcased a professionally-monitored security based on a trigger, being operated through the panel, system as an expansion of its Lyric family of connected home products at smartphone or voice control. It uses voice control to CES2015. The new addition, to be launched in midyear 2015, consists of a make things easier.

market, Honeywell explained its design philosophies and market strategies in embracing sizzling business opportunities.

What Do Consumers Want? Honeywell, a leader in the professional installation market, focuses on the security side. Eaton thinks the smart market is more mature on the individual connected devices like connected thermostats. But with regard to connecting all the devices together, it is still at its infancy. “This is why we are very excited about the professionally monitored connected home system because it basically solves the problem for the consumer, where a professional installer March/April 2015 mySMAhome.com 111

can do everything for them,” said Eaton. Its smart controller supports both WiFi and Z-Wave standards. Its detectors, sirens and sensors support Z-Wave and low-powered proprietary RF technology based on 6LoWPAN, including thirdparty’s solutions. Eaton said, “In home security, in particularly North America, Wi-Fi is needed to get to the router and get out to the cloud. Z-Wave is currently the preferred standard for home security. However, we consider all communication protocols and are constantly evaluating which ones are suitable for our consumers.”

Automate Home in Comfortable Way In North America, there are multiple w a y s t o g e t c o m f o r t p ro d u c t s . Consumers can get it from retailers and install it themselves, or they can buy it and have a professional installer to get it done. There is an option to buy online as well. “In the comfort area, it’s really driven by how comfortable homeowner is with the installation. If they are comfortable with it, then will buy it themselves and then put it in. However, many homeowners prefer to have it done by professional installers,” said Eaton. The company believes the professional installation market still plays an important part for the high-quality home comfort products. As a market leader of smart thermostats, Honeywell provides the broad portfolio of connected thermostats on both professional installed and retail markets to stay competitive, and to serve different market segments. He added, “Our thermostat is designed for professionally installed system. That is where the majority of home automation is happening right now. However, there is a lot of activity in DIY. Therefore, our thermostats are compatible with HomeKit as well as WatchKit.”

Europeans Eye on Energy and Comfort Products In Europe, home owners have different equipments from the temperature control side. “We have a solution that allows users to control each room individually 112 mySMAhome.com March/April 2015

because they have radiators. We tie that system together so in the app every room can be individually controlled which deliver significant energy savings as well as comfort,” indicated Jeremy Peterson, GM of Honeywell Connected Home. When it comes to security, there is a significant difference. “The thought of monitored security to Europeans doesn’t really resonate. So, a very small percentage of homeowners have monitored security system. Instead, what they tend to think about is the blinds and shutters that are on the outside tend to be metal, which act as a security barrier. The people that rent flats or apartments do want security. It allows homeowners to monitor the windows and doors in a simple way, including text alert notifications,” said Peterson. He added, “In the UK, they tend to have systems that have alarms on the outside of the building. So, we have big alarm bells at the doors which alert neighbors of any intrusion. In Europe, the alarm systems are designed more for apartments. It’s growing from the alarm system standpoint.” For Honeywell, North America is still the largest market of intrusion alarm products. The comfort and energy saving solutions are more popular than the security products in Europe now.

In the comfort area, it’s really driven by how comfortable Cloud Service Adds Value Honeywell offers cloud services to home users and contractors. homeowner Through data collected from connected thermostats, Honeywell is able is with the to see how the system is performing, and provides that information to installation. the contractor. Therefore, the contractor can do a better job of servicing If they are and maintaining homeowners. Its professional contractors can thus offer a higher level of service to the homeowner. comfortable In addition, Honeywell works with utilities.
