Introducing: Netatmo’s Internet of Things Products
Netatmo has a line of smart home products that improve your home’s security, weather, air quality, and energy. Their smart products could be just what you need.
Founded in 2011, Netatmo is a French company that specializes in the creation of Internet of Things (IoT) products that make your home more automated. The Internet of Things refers to any “everyday” appliance that uses a Wi-Fi connection to function, but it also can be used to describe smart TVs and routers. These Wi-Fi-connected objects are also known as smart objects.
While it can make your life simpler to connect all of your Wi-Fi-enabled devices to a single platform, it also makes sense to buy all of your smart home products from a single company — especially if that company makes products as cool as Netatmo does. When smart devices originate from the same company, they are often able to communicate better with one another. Do note, though, that there are also smart products that exist as “translators” to help smart products from different manufacturers communicate.
Still, in case you’d like to stick mostly with Netatmo, here are some of their most intriguing products:

Smart Thermostat
The Netatmo thermostat lets you control your home’s temperature remotely, using your smartphone. You can also set your device to start your home heating or cooling on a regular schedule. To schedule on your phone, you simply answer five questions about your habits, and then your device will regularly update your home’s temperature to your preference and schedule.
Indoor Security Camera with Face Recognition
The Netatmo Security Camera recognizes the people who should be in your house, and alerts you about those who shouldn’t be there. The camera sends you alerts about when people should arrive home — like, for example, your children or elderly parents — directly to your smartphone. Further, it will send you alerts about unknown faces, so you could stop a burglar or an unwanted guest.
Wind Gauge
This wind gauge will let you know the direction, speed, and gust temperature directly on your smartphone. Like Netatmo’s other devices, you can set alerts about wind speeds, as well as alerts about the “real” temperature outside. The device, which is meant to be placed outside, uses ultrasonic transducers to measure these wind factors.
Healthy Home Coach
This device monitors four factors in your home: humidity, temperature, air quality, and noise. If your home doesn’t reach peak conditions, you can change factors in your house, like turning on the humidifier or changing your temperature.
