Universal Devices
Universal Devices offers a powerful, embedded, and standalone home automation controller platform called ISY, which integrates automation, energy management, and IoT with AI assistants like Alexa and Google Home. Founded in 2007, the company pioneered low-cost, embedded home automation controllers. ISY is designed for resilience and operates autonomously without reliance on the cloud, though it can integrate with cloud services. The platform supports a wide range of protocols including Z-Wave+, INSTEON, X10, and Zigbee, and is extensible through third-party plugins for services like Tesla and Ecobee. Universal Devices also emphasizes energy management, with products certified for OpenADR specifications and recognized by the California Energy Commission and the California Senate for environmental sustainability. They offer a mobile app for iOS and Android for system management and a developer portal with free SDKs and libraries.
