The creators of the professional-grade Orro Smart Living System are now offering Alexa Built-in integration for their Orro Switch.
Available via wireless update for Orro owners, the upgrade allows homeowners to directly access Alexa through their Orro Switches, providing Alexa capabilities including checking the weather or news, setting timers and reminders – and even controlling other smart home devices.
Once activated, users simply say “Alexa”, and the Orro Switch wakes to listen for a command, while the brand’s implementation of Alexa’s ESP (Echo Spatial Perception) ensures that the switch closest to the person speaking responds back.

“Our far-field microphone array, speaker, and onboard application processor enable Orro Switches to offer functions similar to a standalone Alexa device,” said Colin Billings, founder and CEO of Orro. “With our Alexa Built-in integration, professional installers can simply install Orro Switches in the home and their customers will be getting smart light control, integrated control of other devices, and built-in voice control all from a single device. This streamlines the professional’s installation process while providing homeowners with the smart living experiences they want – all without extra cords or countertop clutter.”
