Describe product's design and/or technical innovation - The Lutron Connect Bridge is a network hardware device that enables numerous features within the new Lutron Connect App. The HomeWorks processor and Lutron Connect Bridge connect to a Wi-Fi router which allows for communication in the app. The features within the Lutron Connect App include geofencing support, Apple Watch support, timeclock syncing, automatic cloud-based firmware updates of the Bridge, and integration with certain Wi-Fi thermostats. Geofencing prompts a change in lights, shades or temperature to take place based on the user’s location ensuring a warm welcome home and added piece of mind. The Lutron Connect App also supports Apple and Android widgets. This allows for quick access to the app without unlocking your phone, providing more efficient control. The Lutron Connect App also gives the user battery and device status. A pop up notification in the app will display when devices have low battery. The battery status is available for Pico remote controls, Lutron’s Radio Powr Savr occupancy sensors and battery powered shades. The app also supports Apple Watch integration. This offers the ability to make changes and receive alerts about changes to a RadioRA 2 or HomeWorks QS system from a remote location. Lutron’s Wireless thermostat and the Nest thermostat can now be easily controlled through the Lutron Connect App.
What sets your product apart from others? - Residential dealers and homeowners are always looking for ways to add advanced connectivity into the home. Offering these new features provides users with control that they’ve not had before, providing greater convenience and energy savings. Lutron’s new Connect Bridge hardware will communicate with the cloud to provide a greater number of cloud-based features for both dealers and the end user. Low battery notifications make it simple for technicians to replace battery in the proper devices without having to check each one. The Connect Bridge and App now works with popular brands like Nest thermostats which allows a dealer to leverage the consumer demand that has been created for these new products. The new remote access now being a free addition is a feature that end users have come to expect. Lutron products are backed by 24/7 US-based technical support. The products work off of Lutron's proprietary Clear Connect technology to ensure a reliable, wireless connection between devices.
