SmartThings Works with Google Home
PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SmartThings
today announced an integration with Google Home as one of the anchor
launch partners. Google Home is a new voice activated speaker, designed
for hands-free help from the Google Assistant to get answers from
Google, stream music, manage everyday tasks, and control smart home
products. With this integration, SmartThings is furthering its
commitment to voice control so consumers can interact with devices in
even more ways as they build a smart home that's more secure, efficient,
and delightful.
"Artificial intelligence has enabled more sophisticated voice control,
and consumers now desire to interact with devices in a more natural and
conversational way that fits seamlessly into their everyday lives," said
Alex Hawkinson, CEO and Founder of SmartThings. "At SmartThings, we're
committed to bringing voice control to the smart home and partnering
with the most innovative products like Google Home so consumers can
integrate with all of their favorite brands as we continue to expand our
open ecosystem."
At launch, Google Home can control a variety make money from home of Works with SmartThings
lighting and thermostat products from leading brands like Philips,
Osram, Leviton, Honeywell and Ecobee. Users can simply say "Ok Google"
to seamlessly turn on lights, change light color, or adjust thermostats.
With Google Assistant and its powerful artificial intelligence, Google
Home does not restrict customers to speak commands in a specific manner
and encourages users to have a more natural, conversational interaction
with their smart home.
SmartThings is also now integrated with Weave Cloud Platform. Weave is
Google's communications platform for IoT that enables device setup,
phone-to-device-to-cloud communication, and user interaction from mobile
devices and the web. As an open platform, SmartThings will continue to
support Zigbee, Z-wave, WiFi and local internet connected devices.
Google Home is available for pre-order starting today and will be
available nationally at Best Buy, Target and Walmart in early November.
