NextDrive announces Its NextDrive Cube IoT Smart Suite: Bringing IoT Convenience to Homes and Businesses
2016-05-30
Taipei, Taiwan — May 26, 2016
Between May 31 to June 2, NextDrive will be attending Computex’s new InnoVEX exhibition, where it will be unveiling its latest suite of IoT innovations for smarter homes and businesses – NextDrive Cube, Pixi, and Cam. By bringing greater integration among your devices, NextDrive is looking forward to showing how everyday personal technology experiences can be even more convenient and powerful.
Awarded by COMPUTEX d&i awards 2016 for its innovation, NextDrive Cube is the world’s smallest IoT Gateway. Simply plug it into any power socket, and you can enable internet connectivity to your USB devices for access on your smartphone, making it easy to set up and integrate devices for a smarter home and business – such as building a secure, private cloud with home security video recording.
Combining this ease of use with powerful IoT architecture, the NextDrive Cube is also able to deliver customized industry applications, by acting as wireless IoT gateway through which cloud services, smart meters and sensors, and I/O devices can be accessed and controlled with convenient tablets and smartphones. Because it’s wireless, it brings convenience without the inconvenience of costly wired upgrades and installations.
NextDrive Cube IoT Suite: The Smarter Way for a Smart Home
From recording your family’s moments to safeguarding where they live, NextDrive makes it easy. With the NextDrive Cube and a USB hard drive, you can create your own personal cloud, allowing you to back up photos and other media from your smartphone. Once you have backed up your content, your phone can then access it remotely over the internet, enabling you to stream videos and music from your personal cloud wherever you are. And because you own it, you’re in control of the costs and security. No more monthly cloud fees. No more security concerns about intruders.
But your own cloud can be so much more powerful and personal than anything else on offer, with NextDrive’s range of sensors for your home or business – Pixi and Cam. Our Pixi sensors detect motion and monitor temperature and humidity. Attach Pixi to any object or surface, and you can be notified of any motion straight to your smartphone. And with NextDrive’s Cam, an event that’s detected by Pixi can be automatically streamed by Cube to be watched on your smartphone, while Cube records it with its built-in memory. There are no installation costs, so its flexibility means you get to have security and reassurance when and where you want it.
With its range of smart sensors, USB integration, and smartphone connectivity, the NextDrive Cube IoT suite is the simplest way to build a smart network and personal cloud for homes and businesses.
NextDrive IoT Gateway: Customized to Integrate Standards
NextDrive Cube’s small form-factor and an innovative combination of transfer protocols and IoT architecture make for an IoT gateway that's both easy to install and powerful in application. From securing business premises to safeguarding and controlling inventory, its versatility as a core building block for custom cloud and industry applications is limited only by imagination.
For instance, NextDrive recently partnered with ROHM, a Japanese semiconductor and ICT manufacturer, by implementing its Wi-Sun’s communication protocols in the NextDrive Cube. Now supporting ROHM’s Wi-Sun B Route, Wi-Sun Han, and Wifi communication protocols, the NextDrive Cube is able to access its cloud services, connect with smart meters and sensors, and control devices wirelessly – all from using convenient, intuitive smartphones and tablets. With NextDrive’s Cube IoT gateway, ROHM’s products can interact and be part of a larger ecosystem of ICTs.
With NextDrive, you can concentrate on developing great products, while we take care making it easier for them to be implemented in an ecosystem of different protocols, by customizing solutions to integrate with industry standards.
