Samsung completely revamped its SmartThings line of smart home products today, from its SmartThings Hub to the sensors. Other hubs normally require an Internet connection to connect with appliances, but the new SmartThings hub will continue to work even if the home Wi-Fi network unexpectedly conks out. There’s also an upgraded app for iOS and Android with a more intuitive layout. People could begin buying the hub on September 3 from SmartThings ad Samsung websites.

We’ve seen plenty of devices that monitor your body whilst you’re awake, now there’s one that checks how well your doing whilst asleep.

Samsung (and dozens of other big tech brands) are showing off all the new toys at IFA 2015 in Berlin, and this week, the Japanese giant dropped some nap knowledge on the world with its new SleepSense, a new type of personal healthcare device created to help folks improve their sleepy time.

Samsung has been working to tap deeper into the IoT segment through its electronics equipped with smart features, in a bid to build a new growth engine as its traditional mainstay handset business has remained sluggish over past quarters. It works with ZigBee and Z-Wave radios. That opens the door for the SLEEPsense to do things like turn off the TV when it senses that you are sleeping or turn the AC down if you begin to toss and turn in a hot house.

SmartThings Hub was acquired by Samsung in August 2014 which worked towards revamping of its hardware components including a better battery backup that can last the device for an extended period of 10 hours in case of power outage. Hawkinson says this assures homeowners that the company cares about their security.

SmartThings is compatible with more than 200 products including Amazon Echo and other devices from manufacturers such as Honeywell, Bose and D-Link. Users can view a livestream from the camera any time, any where and can store the videos in the cloud. The kit has a motion sensor, multi sensor, presence sensor, power outlet and moisture sensor.
