Компания frogblue
frogblue предлагает решения для умных зданий на основе собственной ячеистой сети frogblue Bluetooth®, которые на 100 процентов Made in Germany и отвечают самому высокому стандарту качества. Система построена на интеллектуальных модулях управления — frogs, — которые устанавливаются непосредственно в монтажные коробки за выключателем, точкой подключения светильника, распределительной коробкой или подвесным потолком. Модульное решение монтируется быстро, может расширяться в любой момент и энергоэффективно. Не требуются ни прокладка кабелей, ни ИТ-инфраструктура, ни распределительный щит, ни центральные станции. frogblue подходит как для модернизации, так и для новых зданий — от отдельной квартиры до офисных комплексов. Компания, базирующаяся в Кайзерслаутерне, сертифицирована VDE, является членом ZVEI, ZVEH, экономической инициативы Smart Living и SmartHome Initiative Germany, а также Германского совета по дизайну. Основатель и генеральный директор доктор Ральф Хинкель имеет более чем 30-летний опыт работы в электронной отрасли и уже успешно основал несколько высокотехнологичных компаний.
