Built on off-the-shelf hardware, so it stays affordable and easy to replace
A Raspberry Pi and a carefully selected suite of components automate your controls and integrate seamlessly with your setup.
With a single push of a button, the controller can power on every device in a room, fine-tune audio settings, and select the right inputs across multiple devices.
Our hardware puts you in control, all through the power of open source. Read on to see what is inside, or visit the store for ready-made devices. The controller can be powered with Power over Ethernet (PoE), so it will go anywhere you can put a network device.
