Умными устройствами EKF теперь можно управлять голосом благодаря интеграции с умным домом Sber

The EKF brand announces a partnership with SberDevices. Thanks to integration with the Sber smart home, owners of EKF smart devices will be able to control them with their voice – using the Salute virtual assistant in the app of the same name or in the web application, on smart speakers and other Sber smart devices.

To implement this feature, you need to connect the devices to the new EKF Connect Home application, as well as to the Sber smart home platform via the Salute application. Then users will be able to control devices with voice commands to the Salute virtual assistant. Also, the Salute application now displays voltage, current, and power indicators. This option is relevant for EKF sockets and extension cords with energy consumption measurement function.

Denis Filippov, CEO SberDevices:

"The integration of SberDevices and EKF provides users with a more native and comfortable experience of interacting with the products of both companies and strengthens the market position of both our Sber smart home platform and the partner brand. We see the expansion of the list of devices compatible with our platform as one of the priority areas of our development. A fully Russian technological solution for a smart home with its own line of devices and an impressive list of partner brands has great potential for implementation and growth. Our goal is to maximize this potential."

Artem Sergeev, Head of the "New Businesses" business unit, EKF brand:

"EKF continues to improve its IoT products, offering users more options, convenient and native use, and a clear and simple interface. The new partnership with SberDevices allows us to expand the horizons for EKF Connect Home, and will also contribute to further strengthening EKF's position in the smart device market."

Categories of devices that support voice control using the Salute virtual assistant in smart speakers and other Sber devices: smart lamps and luminaires, LED strips, relays, thermostats, sockets and extension cords, sensors, as well as smart electrical installation products of the Stockholm series.
