Description
The Aeotec AutoPilot OEM Development Sample is a professional-grade smart-home gateway created for OEM and project-based installations. Instead of being a standard consumer hub, it is designed for integrators who need a flexible foundation to build tailored smart-building solutions.
Powered by a Z-Wave 700 platform and a modular software architecture, the AutoPilot gives developers the ability to design their own workflows, interfaces, and automation logic. It is built for environments ranging from single apartments to full multi-unit buildings, hotels, or distributed installations across multiple sites.
Because the AutoPilot processes automation locally, the system remains functional even without internet access. This ensures reliability, improved response times, and enhanced data privacy. Its open development environment supports REST APIs, MQTT, and integration with third-party systems, making it suitable for advanced custom automation projects.
The gateway also supports clustering, allowing multiple devices to be managed under a single platform. For integrators and OEMs, this makes the AutoPilot a scalable foundation for commercial automation projects and white-label solutions.
