The Z-Wave enabled Nokia Home Control Center will allow compatibility and
control within the interoperable Z-Wave ecosystem that's over 300 products
strong and growing rapidly. The Z-Wave ecosystem lets the user monitor and
control their electricity usage, switch devices on and off, and monitor
home systems and devices such as temperature controls, security cameras,
and motion detectors.
The Z-Wave enabled Nokia Home Control Center empowers the user to take
control of the home, locally or remotely, from the palm of a hand using the
associated mobile interfaces.
The Z-Wave embedded Nokia Home Control Center takes advantage of the latest
developments in the Z-Wave standard, delivering a plug-and-play experience
that's easy to setup and easy to use, while still remaining
backwards-compatible with Z-Wave certified devices.
"Zensys is excited to be a part of this visionary product from Nokia," says
Tony Shakib, CEO, Zensys Inc. "It's a great leap forward in home control
and home energy savings, and with Nokia's global reach, the Z-Wave
ecosystem will continue to grow exponentially."
"Over the past years Zensys has continuously demonstrated ability to
energize the home control market. Interoperability with Z-Wave products and
Nokia Home Control Center was a natural choice," says Toni Sormunen,
Director Smart Home, Nokia.
