A complete solution to connect devices to the internet, wirelessly
The Internet of Things has been talked about for many years, but even though communications technologies grow ever cheaper and more efficient, there are still only a handful of internet connected devices. Those that do exist are expensive and offer limited benefits for the user.
The advantages of having devices connected intelligently are huge: Resources can be saved by controlling devices appropriately (taking into account environmental conditions, occupancy, and so on). Security and safety can also be improved, and information can flow to and from the device using the full breadth of internet services, opening up possibilities for support services and remote diagnoses as well as useful and timely notifications.
The Imp uses WiFi and a cloud service to make it easier than ever before for vendors to internet-enable their products, bringing the power of the internet to places and devices it could never reach before.
