Smart Home

AFRISO Smart Home offers innovative solutions for intelligent home automation. With modern sensors and actuators, you can easily and conveniently control your home.

AFRISO Smart Home - The Benefits

Installation without cables

As a result of energy-autonomous transmission of the signals via EnOcean wireless, no power cables are required, you do not have to replace batteries and you benefit from a simple plug & play installation.

Complete solution

Let your life be smart. Whether indoor climate, convenience or security – AFRISO smart home offers a complete solution of perfectly adapted components from sensors and actuators all the way to the gateway and the app.

Open system

The AFRISOhome gateway communicates with many standard devices using the EnOcean, Z-Wave, Zigbee, or WLAN protocols. This allows you to control many other devices in addition to AFRISO sensors and actuators - and you will remain manufacturer-independent.

Quality

Decades of experience and an impeccable track record of proven products in the area of domestic technology guarantee that you get a high-quality solution. AFRISO smart home products are designed in Germany and manufactured at European production sites.

Low radiation

AFRISO smart home uses EnOcean wireless - this technology transmits its data with 700 times less radiation than your WLAN home network.

Data security

At home stays at home. Your data is directly on your AFRISOhome gateway and transmitted with the same encryption as in the case of online banking. AFRISO smart home does not use a cloud solution and can also be used without an Internet connection.

The AFRISOhome Gateway

The wireless standards Zigbee and Z-wave can be added via extension modules which are plugged into the housing. Events, messages and measured values are documented, and alarms are transmitted to mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets, if necessary. Ideal for creating a smart home system in apartments, apartment buildings and administration buildings.

The all-rounder

The AFRISOhome smart home gateway HG 02 was designed for the reliable operation of small smart home solutions all the way to complete building management systems. Sensors and actuators can be easily integrated into the smart home system via plug & play. A Wi-Fi interface is provided for Internet access and communication with routers, smartphones, tablets and PCs.

It is also possible to operate the AFRISOhome gateway without Internet connection; in this case, an independent Wi-Fi network is created. All user data and passwords are stored and processed locally on the AFRISOhome gateway. Building management systems based on an AFRISOhome gateway excel with virtually unlimited customisability and extensibility.

Complete system

With AFRISO smart home solutions, you get products completely adapted to each other: you receive products from the gateway and the app all the way to the sensors and actuators from a single supplier.

The hardware

The AFRISOhome gateway is equipped with a Wi-Fi antenna and provides a power connection (micro USB), three slots on the top for optional wireless extension modules as well as a reset switch.

The software

Due to the use of Buildroot Embedded Linux as the basis and programming in C and C++, the AFRISOhome gateway has a stable foundation and achieves stable and unsurpassed performance.

In order to continuously track all data live, the gateway relies on a libwebsocket as websocket and Web server. This way, all changes are synchronised live and are available in real time on all apps.

The complete system is based on own software development and does not rely on an IoT open source framework. This is the reason why AFRISO smart home is so flexible and can be changed and extended without limitation to the level of PROgrams.

AFRISOhome security principle

The data in AFRISO smart home are encrypted and transmitted to our servers with SSH tunnelling. These proxy servers are hosted in Germany and are subject to the German data protection and privacy regulations.

SSH is the acronym for Secure Shell. With Secure Shell, secure network connections can be established, for example, from a PC to a web server. SSH allows for mutual authentication and encrypted data transmission so that unauthorised third parties cannot read sensitive data. Secure Shell offers a high level of security.

All data is stored only on the AFRISOhome gateway and only routed via the servers for transmission to the smartphone. The data is not stored on servers at any point in time: this way, the system guarantees a high level of security for you.

The app

The AFRISOhome gateway in conjunction with the app provides full control of your smart home. This combination lets you automate sequences with simple IF-THEN functions to take your AFRISO smart home to the max.

With the AFRISOhome app, you can operate your smart home from anywhere in the world. For example, you can control your heating system or your lights while you are on the road and have even more freedom.

The free AFRISOhome app is available for iOS and Android.
