BrilliantSmart has released the Nexus Gateway, a technology that aims to convert a home into a smart home.

On top of adding smart home capabilities, it lets users take control of their household bills with its new way of living. Home owners can also control their audio-visual components, heating and cooling, security cameras and lighting all from their fingertips with the BrilliantSmart app.

The apps work across 500 brands such as Sony, Philips, Apple, Samsung and Alexa and more, connecting more than 200,000 different products in your house and truly putting users in charge.

Brilliant Lighting founder Norman Levin says: “The app gives homeowners the power to configure actions in real time to suit their lifestyle. The app can perform automations with the click of a single button. It also has scheduling and voice-control capability. This national roll-out, marks the first time that Aussie homes can be truly smart.

“We’ve worked for many years to develop this app, to truly put the homeowner in complete control, and finally say goodbye to those old-fashioned remotes.”

He adds that the Nexus Gateway enables connectivity across the home at a minimal expence.

“It’s the broadest platform for connectivity currently available, enabling Australians to reduce their carbon footprint, convenience, increase sustainability and also save money on household bills,” he says.

Recent research from specialists in emerging technology insights, Telsyte – revealed that one in three Australians undertook some upgrades/renovations during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. One in four explored connected technology additions to turn their house into a smart home. The numbers of Australians keen to embrace the convenience and cleverness of a smart home lifestyle, are growing every day.
