Like magical remote control switch you want to try [full text]

Of course, mobile phone control is a very convenient thing, but some people still feel trouble. If they return home, they don’t want to pick up a mobile phone anymore. The universal remote controller Sevenhugs we introduced earlier, and Knocki, which uses the method of knocking on the table to trigger the switch, are wonderful solutions. But this time, the entrepreneurial team from New York is even more open. They invented a little thing -- Hayo. With it, you just waved, you can control all kinds of switches in your home, adjust the temperature, cut songs, even Is it a phone call that sounds amazing?

Create your own "Remote Control" so that you can control everything easily

Hayo's appearance looks very "normal", like a cup, 22 cm high, weighing only 600g, equipped with three cameras for scanning modeling. The overall look is very small. Fitting it in the room means that you have installed a "switchboard" of virtual switches. You can do all kinds of magical operations with your hands. For example, turn on the sound?

Or reply to SMS?

There is light?

Is it also a good idea to manipulate the "original force" while lying on the couch watching a movie?

How can I do it? In fact, the working principle of Hayo is very easy to understand. When you put it in any corner of the home and connect to Wi-Fi, Hayo will start scanning your room and soon it will generate a 3D image of the room.

At this time, use your Hayo app to switch settings on your tablet or phone. Selecting an object in the room, or a specific location, Hayo will make a judgment on this space, and the switch will trigger when the space has changed from the previously scanned 3D model.

What you want to set on your mobile phone is to determine the orientation of the switch you want to open, and then associate the corresponding item. Whether it's a desk lamp, stereo, or TV or mobile phone, Hayo will trigger this association after you wave. "Virtual Switch." At this time, you waved and the light naturally turned on!

It's worth noting that after the room scan was successful, after building the 3D model in the house, even if you move Hayo in the room, it does not need to rescan the room. In the dark light, it can still work as usual.

With Hayo's magical features, you can set switches at various locations in your home. You don't have to talk like a voice and you don't have to look around for those remote controls. You just wave your hands and the operation is complete. As you use more and more frequently, Hayo will become more and more comfortable, allowing you to truly "control".

Currently, what Hayo can do includes turning on lights, playing/pausing songs, replying to default SMS, turning on TV, and other mainstream third-party programs.

In addition to turning on appliances, virtual "switches" can also be played

In addition to satisfying the needs of daily life and letting you get rid of the constraints of the remote control, in fact, Hayo has some big brains to play, not only allows it to play a greater value, but more importantly, makes life seem not so monotonous.

As mentioned above, Hayo can use the “virtual switch” to set things up. You can set this “virtual switch” anywhere and connect to any device, so you can set it at home. Set some “forbidden areas” and associate them with the mobile phone. If the “virtual switch” of the restricted area is triggered, the mobile phone will immediately receive prompts. The following function, I call it "air lock." For example, prevent children from stealing food?

Or keep them away from dangerous goods?

Seeing that many of my friends may have thought that Hayo is essentially a switch correlator, when you trigger condition A, condition B is automatically triggered, so you can also play some fun combinations, such as setting different lights in different locations. ?

The careful thinking of these open-minded holes played a role in "monitoring" the family to a certain extent, but of course it can only be limited to a certain room, but there should be no problem in the emergency. Hayo chose from the beginning is a different way from the smart camera, it is not determined by the human action, but the changes in space, the advantage of doing so is able to quickly respond to changes in space, but the drawbacks are also obvious, once set The fixed object has changed its position, so the instruction should have failed.

Although Hayo's current features are still in the preliminary stage, the lack of face recognition capabilities, the need for more third-party developers, etc. are problems that it encountered, but fortunately, we have seen such a product appear, perhaps in the future, the more More and more products will be like this to facilitate our operations.

Price & How to Buy

Hayo is currently crowdfunding on Indiegogo, starting at US$219 (about RMB1504), which is a little more expensive than Amazon’s Echo’s US$179, but it’s a new product after all. If the technology is mature, it’s probably cheaper. If you now want to try to use the "original force" to control the switch at home, you may wish to go to the website to learn more about it!
