SmartCocoon
Home automation IoT platform for smart climate control
Challenge
SmartCocoon is a home automation IoT platform for smart climate control. SmartCocoon gives their customers complete control over their home’s airflow, so the temperature in every room is always just right. SmartCocoon uses smart connected airflow booster fans and thermostats connected to their central cloud backend. This integrates with smart home thermostats such as Nest and Ecobee to get a 360 view of the home HVAC, airflow and temperature in order to control the desired climate in every room.
