Remote Cameras

dSTAR IoT allows you to connect with your USB cameras from afar. You can send them commands like taking a snapshot and record a video.
Single Point of Control (Coming soon!)

We plan to make our platform control not only cameras, but other types of devices as well! It will eliminate the need to use multiple apps for multiple devices and allow you to manage everything in one app that binds together all smart devices in your home.
Cross Vendor (Coming soon!)

Sony? Amazon? Xiaomi? It doesn’t matter which company manufactured your devices. dSTAR IoT uses OpenHAB, which supports a wide variety of different manufacturers and is not dependent on a particular brand.
Establish the Rules

dSTAR IoT lets you decide the time in which you want your camera(s) to perform a certain action.
Divide and Conquer (Coming soon!)

Set up different zones of your home for more efficient automation. You can define different rooms, floors, and houses.

Let’s Get Started

Download dSTAR Install Manager as a first step to get the dSTAR IoT software.

High end security

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 storage

Less space for video and no SD card rewrite cycles
WebRTC communication

Take totally control over your home and office at the real time
OpenHab solution

Don`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 cases

Support for big amount of devices and interaction between them hence manage your smart things as you like

Frequently Asked Questions

Does dSTAR IoT service cost money?

Does dSTAR IoT come integrated with iCommunicator or is it an add-on?

Does IoT work in real-time?

I try to link the device, but I get the message "Network error"

My antivirus program warns that dSTAR Installer is malicious, what do I do?

The Install Manager doesn't see the SD card

What do I do If I didn’t receive a welcome message from the Bot?

Try waiting a little longer (about 5 minutes) for the message.
If within 5 minutes you do not receive a greeting - Try restarting the Raspberry Pi.
If the previous steps did not help, repeat the installation process, starting with overwriting the SD card.

Why isn't the Raspberry Pi displayed on the "Linked Devices" page in the dSTAR iCommunicator

How do I know that a message has been delivered to the controller?

Messages are not delivered to the controller, what should I do?

The problem can be caused by the following reasons:

You have no internet. Please make sure you have a functioning internet connection.
The program is not running. In this case please reconnect your controller.
An error may have occurred. In this case, restart the controller by turning off the Raspberry Pi and then on again.
If the previous steps did not help, repeat the installation process, starting with overwriting the SD card.

The message was delivered and read on the controller's side, but the bot does not send a photo (or video). What do I do?

To fix the problem, try the following:

Wait for a while. If you requested a video, the file might be quite large.
Make sure you entered the commands correctly.
Make sure you have a working internet connection.
Press the “Reboot” button on the Admin Panel.
Check that the camera is working properly.
