You’ve been hearing about the internet of objects. You’ve been hearing about Kickstarter and other crowdfunding sites that are empowering individual inventors and ushering in a new wave of innovation. The Ninjasphere is just one of the fantastic new products that have been invented, crowdfunded, and are now in production. You can get yours as early as October, 2014.<\/p>\n
\u00a0What Is A Ninjasphere & Why Do I Want One?<\/strong><\/p>\n The Ninjasphere is a device that makes your home or office ‘smart.’ It consists of a wireless and Bluetooth-compatible central control module and one or more smart sockets that plug into wall outlets around your home or office. Any device plugged into a smart socket can be monitored by the Sphere, and the Sphere communicates with you, sending messages to your PC, your handheld, or your smartwatch.<\/p>\n \u00a0Master Of Your Universe<\/strong><\/p>\n Using this technology, you can remotely control lighting, heating and air conditioning, and any other device plugged into a smart socket. The device can send you reminders when you’ve left the building with certain appliances still running, and it allows you to power them down remotely. You can also set up conditional responses, so that if you’re coming in early and it’s still dark outside, you can tell the Sphere to wake up the office, turning lights and equipment on, starting the coffee, and generally making the place nice to walk into. If you experienced a sudden cold snap in your town, you can order the device to turn the heat on to get your office warmed up for you. The possibilities are endless.<\/p>\n It doesn’t stop at just appliances though. You can tag smartphones with the device and keep track of key staff members. Are they in the building, or no? Are they on the move? Where in the building are they? You can pull up a floor plan of your office and tell exactly where your people are.<\/p>\n You can also tag important pieces of equipment, and the Ninjasphere will tell you if and when those items are being moved. In short, it brings your office to life, and puts its control at your fingertips.<\/p>\n
