NEXIA ONE TOUCH
SMART CONTROLLER
For seniors who hate to
track down smartphones to
activate household smart
devices, there’s the Nexia
One Touch. Like with a
mobile device, a user can
control Z-Wave-enabled
devices throughout the
home—but do it hands free.
The unit can be installed
on a wall or left on top
of a table for one-touch
management of up to 15
series of tasks, such as
“turn o all lights and
lock the doors.”
