Smart home automation makes it possible to proactively heat your home from the road, automatically close your garage each evening and conserve energy, among many other modern conveniences.
However, if you have actually tried to implement smart solutions in your home, you have probably discovered that many devices fall short in the areas of ease of installation and use, security, physical range, affordability, and battery life.
Today’s smart home devices largely rely on legacy technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, and Z-Wave. While these connectivity choices are acceptable for close-range connections such as smart TVs, music streaming and connected laptops, they simply are not capable of meeting the demands of battery-operated, constantly-connected smart home devices placed throughout the home and yard.
YoSmart’s new smart home and smart life YoLink brand products harness the power of Semtech’s LoRa® wireless radio frequency technology, empowering complete and reliable coverage and automation of your home.
Why LoRa for Your Smart Home?
LoRa has quickly become the de facto choice for Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in more than 90 countries due to its unique combination of long range and low battery power capabilities. YoSmart leveraged the expertise gained from over 180 million devices featuring LoRa chipsets currently deployed across the globe in healthcare, utilities, logistics, agriculture, and commercial buildings, to become among the first to apply the superior technology to home automation.
Semtech’s LoRa products use a spread spectrum modulation technique that can penetrate thick concrete walls and travel long distances, even in rural locations, empowering homeowners to reliably connect sprinkler systems, outdoor speakers, and even guest houses to a central smart home hub. Sensor batteries can also continue powering these smart home solutions for up to 10 years, providing peace of mind and minimal maintenance requirements.
Trusted in just about every industry, IoT solutions with LoRa are hard to beat.
