There are over one billion dumb light switches and outlets in homes and businesses across North America. However, for the "one percenters" who can afford custom home electronics, lighting control is the third most popular home control system. Homeowners want light control, but until now it's been too expensive, too complicated and requires a professional installer.

By harnessing the ubiquity of wireless internet and existing microprocessing technology, our innovations will change the way you light your home.

Ube products use the latest WiFi technology, the most advanced 32-bit microprocessor technology with reliable firmware and open source operating systems. By leveraging this technology we are able to provide you with superior performance, low power consumption and low prices.

Ube WiFi Connected Smart Light Dimmer. Ube's smart dimmer connects easily to your home WiFi router and allows you to control your lights from our smartphone app either while you are at home or away - anywhere you have a WiFi connection. Built-in sensors can detect your approach and backlight the switch. The capacitive multi-touch interface used on your smart phone screen is implemented on our dimmer - allowing you to control one, several, or all lights from any dimmer using intuitive gestures.

Control Your Lights From Your Smartphone. Ube has an intuitive app for your iPhone or Android phone. From this app you can easily:

• Adjust lights from your smartphone anywhere in the world that you have an internet connection
• Easily create scenes for times of day, or events like parties or more
• See if lights are on or off without having to go into the room
• Turn all the lights on or off at once

Control Several - or All - Lights at Once.

If you install multiple Ube Smart Dimmers you can program them to operate from one button. The MyUbe app allows for easy programming of scenes to suit your lifestyle.

The MyUbe app automatically adds new rooms or light switches to your app whenever you install a Ube Smart Dimmer.

Never Come Home To a Dark House Again.

We all like it that our garage light turns on when we open our automatic garage door. Now you can easily turn on your front porch light, hallway light and kitchen light as you arrive. Enter your home safely and securely.

If you hear a bump in the night, one button will turn on all your lights easily and safely. Data shows that the number one deterrent to crime at night is lighting.

Easy to Install and Configure. The Ube Smart Dimmer installs into your wall just like any other dimmer. Just disconnect your old switch or dimmer and wire in the Ube Smart Dimmer. It handles up to 1000W light.

Once installed, the Ube Smart Dimmer easily connects to your WiFi system within a few minutes. Your MyUbe smartphone app automatically updates itself when you add a new Ube Smart Dimmer.

Controls Any Dimmable 120V Bulb. The Ube Smart Dimmer handles common incandescent, fluorescent or LED light bulbs. If your bulb is designed to be dimmed, we can dim it.

Measure Your Electricity Usage. We've built sub-metering technology into each Ube Smart Dimmer. Sub-metering is a tiny electric meter inside your switch. This means that we can accurately measure how much electricity is being used by each light switch. Ever want to know how much does it costs to leave your lights on all day? Or how much money you’d save save if you dimmed your lights to 90%? The Ube Smart Dimmer measures this.

Get Alerts When a Bulb Burns Out. Sub-metering technology can even detect when a light bulb has gone out - and notify you to replace it.

You install the Ube Smart Dimmer just like any other dimmer. Simply remove your current switch or dimmer and wire in the Ube Smart Dimmer with just two wires. Following our simple instructions, you can connect it to your WiFi and gain smart phone control of your light within mere minutes. You can easily control lights from the dimmer as well. Just slide your finger up or down on the touch panel for raise or lower the lights. Use two fingers to control multiple lights. You can even use a pinching motion to turn on or off all the lights in your house easily from one switch.

The Ube team has been hard at work on this dimmer for almost a year. In this short time we have achieved impressive traction and had remarkable success in bringing our home automation devices to a broader market base. Our accomplishments so far include:
