The Hotel Smart Control Panel, designed by Qiang Liu, is a groundbreaking innovation that revolutionizes the hotel experience. This sleek and intuitive device replaces traditional wall switches, seamlessly connecting to all the smart devices in the room. With its advanced features and user-friendly interface, it enhances convenience and comfort for hotel guests.
One of the standout features of the Hotel Smart Control Panel is its "auto mode" shortcut button. This intelligent function adjusts various smart devices, such as lights, curtains, air conditioners, and speakers, according to the check-in environment and time. By simplifying operations, it provides a more comfortable and personalized check-in experience.
The panel boasts an impressive 8-inch high-definition touch display, ensuring clear and vibrant visuals. Additionally, two high-quality speaker modules deliver exceptional sound quality, enhancing the overall audio experience for guests.
The Hotel Smart Control Panel is not only aesthetically pleasing but also built to last. The frame is made from a combination of PC and glass fiber, providing both durability and lightweight design. The sound grille part features an aluminum alloy anodic oxidation process, ensuring the highest quality standards.
With the new I-Share AI integration, the Hotel Smart Control Panel can efficiently connect and control smart home devices of different brands across various protocols. It also offers remote voice control through an omnidirectional linear array microphone. The "automatic mode" shortcut key can be customized based on the time and weather of check-in, adjusting the lighting, curtains, air conditioning, speakers, and other intelligent equipment in the room to the corresponding working state.
The Hotel Smart Control Panel project started in Hangzhou in June 2021 and was completed in Shenzhen in May 2022. It was listed in August 2022, marking a significant milestone in the advancement of hotel technology.
Overcoming technical barriers between Bluetooth, WIFI, ZigBee, and other protocols was a major challenge in the development of the Hotel Smart Control Panel. The team successfully connected smart home devices of different brands and ensured seamless control even when the network is disconnected.
The Hotel Smart Control Panel, designed by Qiang Liu, has received widespread recognition and acclaim. It was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Smart Living and Home Automation Design category in 2023. This prestigious award acknowledges its outstanding creativity, resourcefulness, and contribution to improving the quality of life.
