Problem
Traditional garage door openers are often inconvenient, requiring physical remotes that can be lost or stolen. Managing access for multiple users, such as family members or service providers, can also be cumbersome and insecure.
Solution
HOMYHUB offers a smart garage door solution that allows users to control, monitor, and manage garage access remotely via a smartphone app. The system consists of a hardware kit that connects to existing garage door motors and a mobile application that provides secure, keyless entry. Users can grant virtual keys to family, friends, or delivery services, set time-limited access, and monitor garage door activity in real-time. The device connects via WiFi, Ethernet, or 3G/4G, ensuring operation regardless of local network conditions, and uses military-grade encryption to protect against unauthorized access.
