Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad

Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad

The Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad is a wireless, battery powered gesture-controlled pad that allows you to activate Z-Wave scenes or commands with a simple wave of the hand.

The Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad has the appearance of a small tablet but instead of a touchscreen, it uses sophisticated motion identification technology to respond to six distinct hand gestures including four directional swipes (up, down, left, right), and two circular motions (left, right).

A single gesture or a combination of gestures may be used – for example, swipe “down” to turn off the lights, “up” to open your blinds.

With four short swipes, the living room is transformed into a home theatre! Swipe’s only limit is your imagination.

• Z-Wave Plus certified contactless gesture control
• May be used with wet or dirty hands – e.g. turn on the lights in the kitchen or bathroom without getting the switches or wall dirty
• Endless control possibilities – e.g. wave goodbye to activate your “going out” scene, swipe up to raise the volume on your sound system, swipe down to close difficult to reach skylight windows, reach out your hand from bed in the morning to activate your coffee machine
• Endless placement possibilities – e.g. visible on the dresser or a wall with your favourite family photos, or hidden away under the kitchen counter or coffee table
• Powered by 4 x AA batteries or Micro-USB giving you ultimate flexibility

The Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad is equipped with the most precise 3D motion detecting sensor of its kind, which ensures flawless recognition of the performed gestures.

It presents a new and innovative way of controlling home automation devices in an intuitive and user friendly way.

The magic of The Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad means you can position it in less conventional places as it will work through solid surfaces, like under a desk or behind a wall. And when displayed, the Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad can be used as a beautifully designed picture frame allowing you to easily change photos whenever you want through a simple to remove front panel.

A special gesture controlled menu also allows you to add/remove or reset the device without dismantling it.

With the endless possibilities of a gesture, the Fibaro Z-Wave Swipe Pad is a perfect solution for the elderly and disabled, or people who find technology difficult to learn. Show them how to turn on the heating or ventilate the room without even getting up from the chair.

Swipe needn’t be limited to the home either. Use it in the workplace to help you make the office as comfortable as the home. Control blinds, lights or a projector – all with a wave of your hand.

FIBARO Swipe features the latest Z-Wave 500 series chip for improved wireless range, security and data transfer rates.

Please note: Currently integrates with Australian Z-Wave certified (921.42MHz) Fibaro Home Center 2 and Home Center Lite controllers only.
