Revolv Controls Your Home
Revolv is making the sci-fi fantasy of home control a reality. The product, only for Apple products thus far, links your whole house to your smartphone or tablet, and allows total control over its systems. It works with most thermostats, wireless lighting systems, automated locks, and entertainment systems, while also incorporating a GPS triggering functionality. So if you want to be energy effecient and leave your air conditioner off all day but still want it set for 73 degrees when you get home, it’s easy to set up a GPS trigger. A one-time fee of $299 gets you a Wi-Fi hub and access to Revolv’s cloud service, and users can manually control what the device controls. The ultimate goal is to bring total home Internet-based control under one device’s control.
