A world class IoT platform
WiZ technology encapsulates multi-protocol connectivity such as WiFi, Bluetooth and 2.4 Ghz low consumption radio frequency. It integrates a feature rich app with intuitive interface, a secured cloud access with real-time interoperability with leading IoT platforms and voice assistants such as Google Assistant, Alexa, Apple Siri shortcuts and Samsung Smart Things.
Using the app, light intensity can be changed from either a single color, or tuneable with 64,000 shades of whites, enhancing mood, relaxation and minimizing stress on eyes. For lights with colors, users can choose to set dynamic light modes for any occasion.
The WiZ app is accompanied by dashboard control options that provide owners a panoramic view of their installation and allows for predictive maintenance and energy usage monitoring, along with advanced circadian rhythm automation enabling Human Centric Lighting. Besides tunable white control and circadian rhythm, other features of the app include lights grouping, schedules, WiZ Click, default light settings (intensity, fading), dynamic light modes, scene management, vacation mode, power monitoring, and sensor management.
