mui Lab Co., Ltd.
Three companies, Mitsubishi Estate, LIXIL, and mui Lab, have signed a basic agreement to form a partnership in the smart home business field.
“HOMETACT” is newly linked with LIXIL’s “Life Assist 2” home device, making it easier to use with the “calm technology” approach advocated by mui Lab
Compatible with ECHONET Lite devices and contributing to a
decarbonized society through energy management
Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. (hereafter, Mitsubishi Estate), LIXIL Corporation (hereafter, LIXIL), and mui Lab Co., Ltd. (hereafter, mui Lab) have decided to form a basic partnership in the smart home business field. signed an agreement.

In the future, the home device of the IoT home link “Life Assist 2” provided by LIXIL (ECHONET Lite standard certified) will be added as a new linked device to the comprehensive smart home service “HOMETACT” developed by Mitsubishi Estate. HOMETACT will also gradually support the operation and control of products supported by home devices and ECHONET Lite devices. In addition, we plan to implement a new energy management function (HEMS) linked with smart distribution boards. By expanding the range of connected IoT devices and housing equipment, it will lead to a further improvement in the usage experience.In addition to the visualization of energy consumption with the HOMETACT app, we will contribute to a decarbonized society by promoting energy conservation through our services. We will aim to provide a mechanism that contributes to the contribution and the reduction of the utility cost burden of consumers.
Furthermore, in the future development of HOMETACT’s additional functions and UI design of the application, we will adopt the “Calm UI” design approach that applies the concept of “Calm Technology” advocated by mui Lab. We will also implement mechanisms that will encourage consumers to make energy-saving habits, such as an interface that allows users to intuitively understand and make judgments, and transmission of power-saving tips.
[Expected effects of this initiative]
As a device connection method to HOMETACT, in addition to
cloud-to-cloud cooperation (API cooperation) with conventional device manufacturers, it also supports cooperation with ECHONET Lite communication via LIXIL home devices (controllers). Build a hybrid IoT platform with enhanced speed and flexibility of linkage, improve convenience by expanding device linkage, and accelerate proposals for new lifestyles.
We plan to implement a new energy management (HEMS) function in HOMETACT by linking with a smart distribution board with measurement and communication functions. Contributing to the realization of a decarbonized society by not only visualizing energy usage, but also promoting energy conservation by leveraging the strengths of smart home solutions.
In addition to function development, we have adopted the design approach of “Calm UI”, which applies the concept of “Calm Technology” advocated by mui Lab, to HOMETACT’s UI design, and have improved the intuitiveness and usability of the application. approach to promote the daily use of services by consumers.
In addition to the above, Mitsubishi Estate, LIXIL, and mui Lab will promote joint research and collaboration, mainly in the area of energy management, in order to accelerate the realization of a decarbonized society and the provision of added value through smart home services. , we plan to work on updating the services we provide. This initiative of the three companies will be announced at the Mitsubishi Estate booth at the “5th Smart House EXPO Tokyo Exhibition” to be held at Tokyo Big Sight from December 5th (Monday) to 7th (Wednesday) this year. I’m going to introduce you.
[About collaboration between HOMETACT and LIXIL home devices] The home devices of the IoT home link “Life Assist 2” provided by LIXIL have acquired ECHONET Lite standard certification and AIF certification registration numbers, and are compatible with ECHONET Lite of various device manufacturers connected to HAN (Home Area Network). It is possible to control compatible products (air conditioners, lighting switches, etc.).
This time, by linking between clouds (API linking) between HOMETACT and LIXIL, it is now possible to control devices in the same way via home devices on the HOMETACT side as well. It will be a hybrid IoT platform that supports device connection using standards. By establishing this IoT platform, which will increase the flexibility of collaboration with a wide range of equipment manufacturers, we will improve product planning and consumer convenience for companies that have introduced HOMETACT, and support new lifestyle proposals. Devices linked to HOMETACT are scheduled to expand in the future.

[About the energy management function]
The promotion of energy conservation in the residential sector is attracting a great deal of attention against the backdrop of the demand for a drastic reduction in CO2 emissions in the residential sector as well as the recent surge in electricity prices in order to realize a decarbonized society. I’m here. In addition, looking at global trends in smart home services, sustainable service design that contributes to energy conservation is positioned as an essential element, and solutions unique to smart homes that make use of linkage with a wide range of IoT devices. Proposals are becoming very active. In the future, HOMETACT will promote cooperation with smart
distribution boards with measurement and communication functions, implement an energy management function (HEMS) that goes beyond home automation (already implemented in Life Assist 2), and at the same time By incorporating various mechanisms such as a user interface that enables intuitive determination of energy usage and information dissemination that enables immediate energy saving actions, the service has evolved into a service that is in line with global trends and can also respond to social needs. I will continue.
In addition, through the three-company partnership of Mitsubishi Estate, LIXIL, and mui Lab, which mainly focuses on the energy management field, we will work to further accelerate the realization of a decarbonized society and the provision of added value through smart home services.

I have taken notice that in old digital cameras, specialized detectors help to {focus|concentrate|maintain focus|target|a**** automatically. Those sensors with some digital cameras change in in the area of contrast, while others make use of a beam of infra-red (IR) light, specially in low lumination. Higher spec cameras from time to time use a blend of both methods and might have Face Priority AF where the dslr camera can ‘See’ any face while keeping focused only in that. Thanks for sharing your thinking on this web site.

Thanks for giving your ideas with this blog. As well, a myth regarding the banks intentions any time talking about foreclosures is that the standard bank will not getreceive my installments. There is a certain amount of time which the bank will need payments every now and then. If you are also deep within the hole, they may commonly call that you pay the payment in whole. However, i am not saying that they will not take any sort of payments at all. If you and the traditional bank can seem to work some thing out, this foreclosure method may end. However, in the event you continue to skip payments wih the new system, the home foreclosure process can just pick up exactly where it was left off.

Thanks for the helpful write-up. It is also my opinion that mesothelioma cancer has an particularly long latency time period, which means that indication of the disease would possibly not emerge until finally 30 to 50 years after the 1st exposure to mesothelioma. Pleural mesothelioma, that is the most common kind and affects the area about the lungs, could potentially cause shortness of breath, chest muscles pains, plus a persistent cough, which may produce coughing up bloodstream.

It’s my belief that mesothelioma will be the most dangerous cancer. It has unusual characteristics. The more I look at it the greater I am persuaded it does not act like a real solid tissue cancer. In the event mesothelioma is often a rogue viral infection, hence there is the potential for developing a vaccine as well as offering vaccination for asbestos exposed people who are open to high risk of developing long run asbestos related malignancies. Thanks for revealing your ideas for this important health issue.
Great site. Lots of useful information here. I am sending it to a few friends ans also sharing in delicious. And naturally, thanks to your sweat!
