When we think of IKEA, most of us probably think of the mazes of furniture and meatballs that we love so much. But now, the Swedish furniture giant is pushing the boundaries with its latest offering – IKEA's smart sensors, which promise to turn your home into a fortress of modern technology and comfort.
IKEA smart sensors? IKEA is no longer just a story of bookshelves and meatballs. With the launch of three new smart sensors – VALLHORN, PARASOLL and BADRING – the company is entering a new era of home intelligence. They are designed to allow you to control your home even when you are not there. These smart sensors offer real-time notifications whenever activity is detected, so you're always connected to your home.
UMBRELLA is a door and window sensor that notifies users when these accesses are opened or closed. WALLHORN is a wireless motion sensor that activates lights when motion is detected and offers flexible lighting. BADRING, a water leak detection sensor, is designed to be placed near water sources and notifies the user when a leak is detected. Extremely suitable for, for example, the kitchen dishwasher, or on the bathroom floor, where such accidents abound.
Connected to the central unit THE CONDUCTOR, IKEA smart sensors trigger other smart devices, receive notifications on your mobile phone or adjust the lights to your liking - all of this is controlled via the app IKEA Home smart, even remotely.
IKEA, known for its minimalist design and affordable prices, is now pushing the boundaries of traditional furniture. With sensors UMBRELLA, WALLHORN and BADRING IKEA promises to make your home smarter and safer. According to the latest "Life at Home" report, which finds that people value comfort and safety in their homes the most, these sensors represent a step forward in modern living. The prices of the sensors are said to be around 10 euros.
Expected to launch in the UK, Sweden, Germany and possibly other regions in the first half of 2024, these sensors are not only affordable, but also promise compatibility with popular smart home systems like Google Home and upcoming Matter support for IKEA- his hub
