OBLO Living to present its Home Automation at IBC 2016
New boost to operators' business
NOVI SAD, Serbia, Sept. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- As the home automation market is still young, major operators have already made public announcements regarding home automation services and some have begun initial rollouts, and many more will soon jump into the game. The potential customer loyalty and incremental revenue attached to home automation services, particularly home security and home energy management, are too enticing for any operator to pass up. Many broadband operators are starting out small, offering remote control of lighting, doors, thermostats, audio, video, and security systems. The goal will then be to layer on additional revenue-generating services, such as a full-fledged energy management system.

OBLO Home Manager is a software component that runs either on a home automation gateway device or is integrated within a host device software environment (3G/4G router, xDSL/DOCSIS modem, etc.). OBLO cloud service enables home control outside of the local network, and remote configuration and monitoring of home automation devices in the field. OBLO client applications allow the end user to control their home from an Android or iOS handheld device."
The central place of OBLO home automation system is reserved for a gateway device. This stylish desktop gateway is based on a cost-effective "proven" SoC with outstanding LAN/Wi-Fi capabilities.

Network routing features are available via software options from a Wi-Fi router or Wi-Fi repeater. The gateway is equipped with an external power supply for worldwide markets.
"We believe that our solution perfectly fits service operators who wish to increase their subscriber base by introducing smart home service. Our cloud service, based on MQTT lightweight protocol, allows the operator to manage their smart home subscribers, provide technical support, perform remote diagnostics and configuration, and data analysis. Our well defined client SDK for Android/iOS enables 3rd party companies to develop smart home client applications. We have also defined several kits that could be a perfect choice to start off the service," concluded Nikola.
