Withings and Zuli are making connections with other companies’ smart-home products.
Withings teamed up with IFTTT.com to integrate its Withings Home HD security camera with a range of devices that include Philips Hue lights, Nest’s Thermostat, and Belkin WeMo products. IFTTT.com is the Cloud-based interoperability service that integrates home-automation products that don’t communicate direct to one other via shared home-automation standards..
For its part, Zuli integrated its smart plugs with Philips Hue smart bulbs, enabling lighting changes to follow a person as they move from room to room as the plugs detect a phone’s presence via Bluetooth.
