LuzBuddy Smart Home Control Center
3D visual smart home control system for managing lights and devices with an immersive interface.
LuzBuddy Smart Home Control Center
LuzBuddy is an innovative smart home control system that transforms how you interact with your connected devices. Instead of scrolling through endless lists of switches and sliders, LuzBuddy presents your entire home as an interactive 3D environment where you can visualize and control everything at a glance.
