Home automation is on the rise across the globe and Zimbabwe is swiftly following suit.
It’s easy to see why, as tomorrow’s tech savvy consumers can easily control energy efficiency, ensure safety, and reduce their carbon footprint, conveniently from the palm of their hands thanks to the Internet of Things (IoT).
“The world has embraced the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which has changed the way people manage their daily lives,” explains Charl Osborne, Organisational Head at CBI-electric: low voltage, a local manufacturer of quality low voltage electrical distribution, protection and control equipment.
Noticing a gap to assist consumers to manage their electricity from anywhere and anytime, the company introduced the Astute Range which features South African manufactured products such as the Astute smart controller, isolator and smart plugs – all managed via the CBI Home App.
Today, IoT products are putting the power back in Zimbabwe’s hands.
