The 'ZAC' Voice Control System Enables Easy Home Automation

— October 18, 2016 — Tech
Programmed to help make home automation better and simpler for all users, the 'ZAC' voice control system is a new solution that can be implemented into ones lifestyle with ease.

'ZAC' consists of a home automation box that houses the small raccoon hologram named ZAC that will act as the virtual assistant when it comes to home control.

Instead of requiring OEM products and solutions to be utilized, the 'ZAC' system uses adapters that enable lightbulbs and electrical products to be used with the system. This means users can totally control their home from within or outside to keep things moving along as smoothly as possible. Users simply need to prompt the 'ZAC' voice command system and speak their request to get going.
