dSTAR IoT
dSTAR Internet of things (IoT) – is dSTAR Lab’s solution for anyone who wishes to control and manage their smart devices in an easy and secure manner. By using our RaspberryPi IoT controller, coupled with the iCommunicator mobile app, you’ll be able to control your smart devices effortlessly.
Want to turn on the light? Watch TV? Monitor the fridge? Well, now there’s no need to download all these devices’ dedicated apps. You can do it simply and intuitively with dSTAR
Main Possibilities
Complete control through communication with the Bot
-
ControllerSoftware that provides the ability to manage your smart devices and runs on your RaspberryPi.
-
DevicesThe smart things you own and can connect to dSTAR IoT
-
Smart PanelUser friendly admin panel, that helps you to manage your network of connected devices
-
dSTAR Bot AdminFine tuning of many parameters, especially access rights
Benefits of using dSTAR IoT
Receiving photos from all camera that are connected to the controller provides totally understanding of what happens at your own place or office
-
Remote CamerasUsing dSTAR IoT you not only can connect to any camera in the network, but also give them tasks: take a snapshot, record a video, zoom and rotate, etc.
-
Single Point of ControlOur platform eliminates the need to use multiple apps for multiple smart devices. Now you can manage everything in one app that binds together all smart devices in your home.
-
Speech & Text CommandsWant to turn on the TV, adjust the oven temperature, or dim the lights? Just send a text message or voice the command in you language of choice to our integrated Bot!
-
Cross VendorSONY? Samsung? Bosch? It doesn’t matter which company manufactured your devices. Our IoT Controller knows how to interact with device made by almost any vendor out there.
-
Establish the RulesAutomate your connected devices’ behaviour according to the rules you’ve made. Want the lights to turn on every night at 19:00? Done. Want the AC to start only when the room temp. is above 30 degrees? No problem. Your house, your rules!
-
Divide and ConquerSet up different zones of your home for more efficient automation. You can define different rooms, floors, and houses.
How it Works
-
PurchasePurchase necessary hardware (Raspberry Pi 3 / 4).
-
InstallInstall dSTAR IoT software using provided install manager on the RaspberryPi. Install dSTAR iCom on your mobile device. Link IoT Bot via QR code using “Link Device” section in setting of the dSTAR iCommunicator
-
DownloadDownload the software on an SD card and insert the SD card into your Raspberry Pi.
-
OpenOpen the dSTAR iCommunicator and wait for a message from the integrated bot.
Let’s Get Started
Download dSTAR Install Manager as a first step to get the dSTAR IoT software.
A Seamless Solution
dSTAR IoT has been built based on OpenHAB home automation platform. Using OpenHAB, unique and sophisticated platform, as a foundation, we have enriched it with dSTAR’s secure WebRTC communication channel and added features. That is how we got ultimate IoT controlling system. But we did not stop there and have embedded it in dSTAR iCommunicator so our users may get everything within one app.
We see it as an important puzzle piece in the iCommunicator, as it brings us one step closer to our vision - a truly smart communication experience in which users and smart devices can all understand and interact with one another on a decentralized network.
-
Recording to virtual storageLess space for video and no SD card rewrite cycles
-
WebRTC communicationTake totally control over your home and office at the real time
-
OpenHab solutionDon`t think about the complex configuration of each device and the choice of a single company to create anecosystem, manage over 1000 devices via dSTAR iCommunicator
-
Creating own user casesSupport for big amount of devices and interaction between them hence manage your smart things as you like
