(Dec 8th, 2014 – Dallas) smanos, a trendsetting innovator and dynamic developer of wireless smart home and DIY security systems, is proudly bringing its brand new Smart Home Hub as well as its highly acclaimed WiFi and cellular portfolio to International CES in Las Vegas, held between Jan. 6th and 9th, 2015. The complete smanos smart home portfolio speaks minimalistic elegance, self-install and self-monitor, and will be available at Stand 62000 in Tech East at Westgate Las Vegas (formerly LVH). smanos sensations will also be found at Digital Experience!, a high-octane evening press event organized by Pepcom on Jan. 5th at The Mirage Hotel. From WiFi, cellular, app-enabled alarm and automation systems to remote energy, security and health management, smanos solutions cater to today’s mobile-driven lifestyles and ever-evolving residential needs, and ensure property owners have complete control, comfort and visual confirmation right at their fingertips within a few short minutes and easy swipes and taps.


“We’re psyched to unveil the smanos K1 Smart Home Hub, and showcase our latest offerings to worldwide retail buyers and distributors,” said Brian Stark, General Manager of Americas for smanos. The K1, the ultimate home automation and security center, is smanos’ latest wireless smart home gateway, combining butler- and guard-like functions into a stack of aesthetically pleasing round discs. “The discs come with aluminum frames and texturized plastic surfaces, particularly designed for everyday wear and tear,” Stark said. “smanos K1 connects to up to 50 wireless accessories with ease, and its intuitive operation both on-site and on the smartphone is a breeze. Users, young or old, can rely on their basic senses to see, hear or touch to check if K1-enabled things at home are working properly.” Such connected but wireless things include lights, appliances, intercoms, locks, cameras, and alarm sensors and detectors.

Comparable with high-caliber smartphones these days, said Senior Product Manager Lily Chen, smanos K1 is easily mount-and-play, and adding/removing features is just like adding/removing smartphone apps. “With such intuitive operation, gesture-based password protection and self-learning capability, your smart and connected home has just become that much more adorable and affordable with smanos K1,” Chen said.


The IP6, a new addition to smanos’ WiFi portfolio and an HD camera for home security and serenity, has a wide field of view at 95 degrees (equivalent to 2 regular home or web cameras combined) and a state-of-the-art cooling mechanism that cannot be found elsewhere in the residential DIY security sector, said Brian Borghardt, General Manager of Europe. “smanos IP6 is an intuitive, plug-and-play home camera that delivers uncanny, smooth, HD quality video at 720p, without any complications or LAN setup.” Simply download the free app from App Store or Google Play, register for free, power on your IP6, scan the QR code in the back, and upon a sound link (beep) and WiFi connection, this little gadget is ready for any action. “Even if it is powered on 24/7, heat dissipation of smanos IP6 is cleverly taken care of with the sleek, compact, ceramic-like plastic design,” Borghardt stressed.

With just one click, you can share (or revoke) your IP6 camera views with your friends or loved ones via email, and enjoy memorable moments with them, said Hayden Hsu, Director of Global Brand Development. “The built-in HiFi microphone and speaker ensure seamless 2-way communication between you and your loved ones, keeping either party in the know, on the go. One smartphone can control multiple smanos IP6’s; and vice versa, one IP6 can be viewed by multiple users simultaneously.”

Expect to find more on display, including cellular- and WiFi-based alarms as well as wireless smart home accessories and sensors. Do watch this space for more updates on the Pepcom and CES events, as well as more profit-generating and user-friendly smart home sensations from smanos.

Designed and marketed from the Netherlands, smanos is our complete security, monitoring and automation system lineup for today’s homeowners, Hsu said. “What makes smanos a must-have brand to distributors and retailers is that we’re truly committed to researching, designing and delivering innovative, comprehensive and easy-to-use smart home solutions that will help them outperform their sales and profit targets.” Worldwide, smanos has garnered phenomenal recognition and media coverage over the past year, and growth momentum is still accelerating. What’s being demanded in the residential market these days is smart, simple, sleek, mobile yet compact and integrated ingenuity, and smanos will continue providing just that, with even more home automation, remote management and monitoring options.
