Lightwave Link Plus and Apple HomeKit certification
LightwaveRF plc ("LightwaveRF" or the "Company"), the leading
smart home solutions provider, is delighted to announce that its
next generation Lightwave Link Plus has been certified under
Apple's licensing scheme as a "Works with Apple HomeKit"
product.
The new Lightwave Link Plus connects to a standard WiFi router
and controls the integrated LightwaveRF smart home system for
lighting, heating, power and security. This manages Lightwave
end-point devices through both Apple Home and LightwaveRF apps and
via voice control. The Lightwave Link Plus supports the current
Lightwave product range as well the new range of devices to be
launched later this year.
Commenting, Andrew Pearson, CEO said: "This announcement of the
next generation Lightwave Link and its certification by Apple is
the culmination of an extensive research and development programme
over more than two years. A fully integrated Apple chip allows
Lightwave Link Plus to work directly with Apple HomeKit without
reliance on third party technologies and interfaces. This new
generation of smart home technology has much improved energy
efficiency, uses a combination of radio frequencies and protocols
to execute fully encrypted commands with zero latency, and is
future proofed by remote over-the-air update capability.
"Together with our new cloud platform capabilities, energy
consumption analytics and voice control Lightwave Link Plus is a
significant new development for the company. Lightwave Link Plus
and our new range of lighting and power devices will launch later
this year."
This announcement contains inside information for the purposes
of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
