The system uses AES and your data is additionally secured by your unique PIN code and system specific identifiers. Our cloud Infrastructure is using HTTPS and best practice security architecture, which enables us to roll out OTA updates to the system.

Yes. You will only need an internet connection if you want to use external platforms or when you update the purpose of your Q-Client Builder Base.

The bluetooth range varies indoors and outdoors. Indoors you’ll get about 32 feet and Outdoors twice as much.

The Q-Server is Wifi & Bluetooth only and currently does not support LAN connectivity.

Your Q-Server needs to be connected to your local network. If you are using a Wi-Fi range extender to extend your local network, the Q-Server will work with it as well. Please note that our Q-Server only runs with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi at this moment.

No. Our platform offers wireless capabilities out of the box, firmware generation, drag and drop app building and so many other features that make it easy for a much broader audience to build scalable IoT Applications. It also takes a fraction of the time to build a meaningful project compared to building it with Arduino.

Not at all. Our platform is much more focused towards hardware integration. On top of that we deliver firmware generation for our microcontroller, which makes this system much more accessible to a broader audience.

Not at this time. If you want to use the Q-Client Builder Base in battery mode you will need to purchase a CR2032 coin cell battery. The Q-Client Builder Base includes a USB cable for power. We also offer a 5V Power Supply Kit ready for download on our website if you want to power your projects with a 9V Battery.

The great thing about our Q-Client Builder Bases is that you are able to reuse it for multiple projects by just uploading different firmware onto it. However, if you plan to create more complex projects such as our security system or HVAC project for example, you will you will need more than two Builder Bases.

We support Phillips Hue (lighting), Samsung SmartThings (IoT platform), IKEA Tradfri (lighting) and plan to add more Gateways through OTA software updates in the future.

We support Infrared (IR DB), Twilio (SMS) and plan to add more Services through OTA software updates in the future.

Currently five Q-Clients can connect to one Q-Server.

The firmware definition is configured by you and is stored on your Q-Server. Once you decide to upload firmware to your Q-Client, we transmit your firmware definition to our cloud generator. The generator is sending back a secured encrypted firmware file that is then uploaded and stored on you Q-Client. You don’t need an internet connection to use a Q-Server, but if you want to change the firmware of your Q-Client you will have to be connected to the internet.
