AVA, a Swiss-American manufacturer of connected home products, is now shipping its product lineup, including the AVA Cinema Remote, AVA OS, and AVA Nano Brain. Following what the company says was a successful pre-order phase, AVA is now delivering on its promise to bring innovation and elegance to luxury AV control.
Since unveiling at CEDIA Expo 2023, anticipation has built for AVA’s new smart home control solutions. The company navigated an unexpected delay with transparency, working to ensure that the final products exceed both industry and consumer expectations.
“We aimed for perfection with these new devices,” said Raphael Oberholzer, CEO of AVA. “The positive response from our dealers affirms our dedication to quality. The AVA Cinema Remote, in particular, embodies our vision for the future of home control. Now, as we begin shipping, we’re excited for customers to experience these innovations firsthand. This moment isn’t just about overcoming production hurdles; it’s a leap into a future where smart home technology is truly intuitive and accessible. We thank the the installers who have been on our side in anticipation of this moment. The wait is over, and we think you’re going to love this new lineup of products.”
AVA Cinema Remote offers a combination of a vibrant touchscreen and Dynamic Keypad, which makes a sophisticated remote control elegant and simple to use. The goal of the AVA OS, according to the company, is simplify the complexity of modern AV systems, making advanced home theater setups feel effortless to control. The AVA Nano Brain, a compact smart home processor, enables seamless integration and scaling for AVA OS in larger systems, ensuring that every user interaction is as powerful as it is intuitive.
“Our commitment to innovation, exemplified by the AVA Cinema Remote and supported by AVA OS and AVA Nano Brain, marks this release as a milestone for AVA and the smart home industry,” said Patrick Domenig, COO of AVA, Inc. “The enthusiasm from our dealers and customers has been overwhelming. We’re not just shipping products; we’re delivering a new standard of luxury and convenience in home automation.”
