Knut Sensor |
So you leave the house on its lonesome for a vacation in Hawaii, but
at least you need something to keep an eye on things. Who knows if the
house suddenly catches fire or gets flooded and you have no idea about
it?
Lucky for you, there is the Knut WiFi-capable sensor that sends
various measurements to your iPhone wherever you are in the world. This
Kickstarter project, built with various functional sensors, hopes to be
sold at $80 a pop
The Knut contains a highly-accurate temperature sensor and a battery
level sensor. If you want the device to measure more than just
temperature, you can connect it with a single or multiple external
sensors–measuring humidity levels, vibrations, door, and water
presence–using the 3-port hub.
With Knut, you will be alerted in case the house gets flooded,
catches fire, shaken by earthquake, or broken open by thieves. The
device can also be used for humidors, tool sheds, anything you need to
monitor while you are away.
The Knut project has surpassed its $25,000 goal, so you are assured this will be shipped.
