When I heard Tony Fadell – the chief visionary behind the iPod- was working on a new project I was justifiably excited. When I heard he was working on a thermostat – my excitement grew even further.
Tony has produced a complete product – beautiful industrial design, software layer, web access, mobile integration and artificial learning (sort of). This is a space which is rife for innovation. The inefficiencies that result from incorrectly configured thermostats compound into huge costs – both financially and environmentally.
