Fantem Announces Feature Enhancement for Oomi, The World’s First Smart Home Built..... (1 Viewer)

(Chicago – April 21, 2015) – In conjunction with the launch of its Indiegogo campaign, Fantem announces feature additions to its Oomi smart home system, including a redesigned controller and a unique multisensor. The new controller, Oomi Touch, is encased in edge-to-edge glass and includes both tactile buttons and capacitive touch controls, offering control of smart home devices as well as television and music. Oomi Multisensor not only detects motion, but also temperature, light and humidity, and more, adding versatility to the home automation system already set apart by intuitive control and ease of use.


Oomi’s patent pending Tap-and-Touch™ technology sets Oomi apart from other systems by allowing for effortless setup and configuration. Oomi Cube, a hub with unrivalled functionality built on the Z-Wave® Wireless Mesh Network Technology, instantly recognizes all system accessories and sensors without programming. Self-learning algorithms and adaptive automation allow the system to learn the user’s habits, schedules and preferences to deliver a new level of whole home control.


Starting today, the latest Oomi smart home technology will be available for preorder on Indiegogo. The campaign offers three bundles, each based on Oomi Cube and Oomi Touch. Bundles also come with a choice of Oomi accessories, allowing contributors to create their ideal smart home.


Oomi bundles include:

Oomi Cube plus the choice of one of three Oomi Z-Wave accessories ($279) – limited time pricing

Oomi Cube and three Oomi Z-Wave accessories, plus the choice of Oomi Streamer or Oomi Air ($439) – limited time pricing

Oomi Cube, both Oomi premium accessories, and a choice of nine Oomi Z-Wave accessories ($699)
