- Smart light switches
- Smart light dimmers
- Smart stations
- Smart controls and motors for blinds and curtains

- Just to name some~
Mr Mun demonstrated how, at the touch of a single app, certain furnishings at home can be controlled even if you are far away outside.

He shared more about how implementing smart home technology helped to create a more structured lifestyle for himself and his family; by using the Aztech Kyla app and the accompanying Wi-Fi smart plugs, he programmed his television to switch itself off at 9pm to avoid distraction and to help his children prepare themselves for bedtime.
He explained that implementing smart home technology into your home can be as small and simple as swapping out an ordinary plug for a smart Wi-Fi one; once you connect compatible devices to a row of Wi-Fi plugs, home control becomes easier.

Mr Kenny Wang of igloohome was the second speaker.
igloohome, since its creation four years ago, has made itself an international name with its advanced array of digital locks, smart padlocks, and smart keyholders.
It is especially popular with residential properties, warehouse, shipping facilities, and even vacation rental groups such as AirBnB. This is due to the user-friendly interface of igloohome's products that allows one to retain or distribute security codes according to the circumstances - whether you are handing rental keys to a tenant, or dispensing salary cheques or access codes to your employees.

The great thing about igloohome's digital door locks is that it does not just secure your home, but also lets you control your home protection and access. Got delivery or cleaning scheduled while you are away? You can send a pin code over to allow your deliveryman or cleaner inside your home!
