Notable new product introductions, which were teased at a Virtual Product Premiere earlier today, include the Control4 Halo Remotes, Control4 Vibrant Lighting, Episode Radiance Audio & Lighting System, Luma x20 Surveillance, among others.
Control4 Halo Remotes
Snap One is debuting its highly anticipated new line of Control4 hand-held interfaces, the Halo Family of Remotes. The Halo line was designed using feedback from Snap One Partners and includes new features and upgraded technologies while expanding on the sleek aesthetic introduced with the coveted Neeo Remote.
The two new models — Halo and Halo Touch — include enhanced features like a color screen, new graphical interface, dual-band Wi-Fi support, backlit buttons, and much-requested new features like push-to-talk voice control. The Halo model features a 2.8-inch screen that is navigable with hard buttons and provides full access to connected devices, while the Halo Touch model features a premium brushed-aluminum chassis and makes every function available through an intuitive 3.2-inch customizable touchscreen.
Control4 Vibrant Lighting
The future of Control4 is brighter than ever with the introduction of Vibrant Linear Lighting, a new line of Control4 lighting that enables Partners to deliver personalized lighting experiences for any mood, activity or time of day.
Control4 Vibrant Linear Lighting provides Snap One Partners with a complete product line, offering LED tape in a full selection of white, tunable white, color, and color + tunable white options, and providing all the accessories needed, to create sophisticated lighting experiences. Integrators can design scenes that can be activated with the press of a button, a voice command, or through automation to provide a more immersive experience and enrich a customer’s lifestyle and well-being. The line also supports circadian health, a growing wellness concern; the lighting mimics nature with bright, cool light during the day that slowly dims and warms in the evening.
Episode Radiance Audio & Lighting System
The new Episode Radiance outdoor audio and lighting system is the world’s first outdoor system to power audio and lighting through a single two-conductor wire. Using patent-pending ACE technology from Swarm designed exclusively for Snap One, the Episode Radiance series includes a robust all-metal 70-volt outdoor bollard-style speaker and LED light module that can be attached to a speaker or mounted as a standalone lamp for both spot and flood lighting needs.
The Episode Radiance series enables Snap One Partners who focus on either audio or lighting to broaden their offerings with a unique, attractive solution that is durable, easy to install, and not available anywhere else.
Luma x20 Surveillance
Snap One is also unveiling the Luma x20 family of surveillance products that are fully NDAA-compliant, deliver the latest AI-powered security features and provide customers greater peace of mind while simplifying installation and long-term maintenance through full OvrC integration.
The brand new x20 product family provides Partners with professional setup procedures via OvrC and gives users a state-of-the-art experience with the Luma View mobile app for system control and live monitoring.
The new Luma View app features AI-filtered events, allows saving and sharing clips, lets users scrub synchronized event footage and provides them with enhanced connectivity security between mobile devices and the surveillance system. The Luma x20 experience with Luma View includes human and vehicle detection that triggers instant push notifications through the Luma View app and connected control systems.
Araknis AN-820 Wireless Access Point
The new Araknis AN-820 WAP is the first access point to combine the latest Wi-Fi 6 technology with OvrC remote management capabilities. The new WAP brings the latest Wi-Fi technology to the Araknis lineup to support higher network capacity, faster speeds, enhanced reliability, and longer battery life for Wi-Fi 6 connected devices. The AN-820 features a 4×4 antenna that provides more powerful connections for more devices and makes it easier to install and manage multi-WAP systems through Snap One’s OvrC remote management platform.
“Our mission is to bring together the best people, partners, and products to make lives more enjoyable, connected, and secure,” Vaughn concluded. “Our Partners are integral to that mission. Every day we think about how we can become the industry’s most valued and trusted partner. There’s no better place to have conversations with Partners, and debut new solutions, than CEDIA.”
