Home automation has been making things a lot easier for a while now. Now smart functions can be operated in the home in an even more convenient way. Fibaro Swipe allows devices that work on a Z-wave standard to be gesture-controlled.
Z-Wave-Zentralen looks like a picture frame, but is a clever tool for contact-free control of home automation devices using hand gestures. Move window blinds up or down with a wave of your hand, turn lights on or off with a point of your finger. Here the user decides which gestures they assign to which functions.
Swipe is particularly practical when used in rooms in which your hands are often wet or dirty, such as kitchens or bathrooms.
The device comes in black and white. It can be used as a picture frame or fixed under the table top. It is also possible to paper over it. Power supply is provided via cable, a micro-USB socket or with batteries.
Swipe works with Z-wave radio technology
Swipe belongs to the Fibaro family of products, which includes water sensors, smoke and motion detectors. But because the system works with Z-wave radio technology, which is used by a wide range of manufacturers, there is a large selection of compatible smart home products worldwide.
