"Brilliant Plug-in Smart Home Control Panel: A Bright Idea for Easy Home Automation"
Brilliant has introduced a new smart home controller, the Plug-In Smart Home Control panel, which offers a simple and intuitive solution for controlling various smart devices in the home. The touchscreen panel can be attached to the wall and plugged into an outlet, eliminating the need for complex electrical wiring. It features customizable shortcuts, touch-sensitive sliders, a built-in microphone, speaker, camera, motion sensor, and onboard Alexa for voice control. While the device is on the expensive side at $400, it offers a convenient and efficient way to control lights, music, and other connected devices in the home. However, its compatibility with a limited range of devices and lack of support for popular platforms like Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa may be a drawback for some users.
