The latest innovation from Lutron and Josh.ai combines a Lutron keypad with Josh voice control
Josh.ai is a name gaining a lot traction in the smart home industry. Josh is a voice-controlled home automation system that allows you to control connected smart devices with natural voice commands. The system uses patented natural language processing (NLP) and machine-learning AI that allow Josh to understand everyday language, questions, instructions, and more. The more you use Josh, the more the AI-powered system adapts to recognize patterns and act on them intuitively.
One of the most exciting smart home innovations coming to market this year is the Josh.ai Ready Wallplate from Lutron and Josh.ai. The new wallplate combines a sleek Lutron keypad for tactile lighting, shading, and temperature control with a Josh.ai Nano for whole home voice control.
