It’s 2022, the concept of smart products has become more and more popular in our lives. We all have experienced the convenience it brings: turn on the lights with your smartphone, schedule to turn off your A/C, etc. But there are also scenarios where a modern smart solution is expensive, troublesome, or even cannot be found.

These traditional devices have one thing in common: they all have buttons and switches for your fingers to control. To this end, we created Fingerbot to help you smartly control 99% of existing buttons and switches, and eventually give you smart control over your appliances.

With the combination of interchangeable arms and four types of control modes, Fingerbot Sense will take over any buttons and switches effortlessly.

Straight Arm

Fingerbot comes with a regular-lengthed straight arm by default. It is suitable for triggering buttons and other places where a simple push is enough to do the job. Arms with different lengths can be found in the Toolpack (sold separately).

Rocker Arm

The rocker arm (sold separately in Tookpack) has a flexible flat surface in the end, and together with our designated 3M tape, the Fingerbot will be able to both pull up and push down the switch.  It is suitable for all rocker switches.

Toggle Arm 

The toggle arm (sold separately in Tookpack) has an O-shaped tip. It is designed to cling to the toggle switch and then flip it in both directions. 

Customizable Arms

Have some special switches or needs that even Toolpacks cannot help? Don’t worry, we have released the 3D-printing template file. You can customize a unique arm for your own need!

Click Mode

Click mode imitates your finger pressing the button. In Click Mode, Fingerbot will move its arm down and retract after some time. It’s up to you to decide how deep it goes and how long you want to hold it.

Switch Mode

Switch mode is suitable for all kinds of on/off switches. The specially designed arm will stick to one side of the switch, relying on push/pull to perform the on/off action. Your normal physical control is preserved by placing your hand above the Fingerbot. 

Program Mode

If you need to push a button regularly, let program mode help! Design the repeated movement you like, and you are free to leave—no more worrying about being pinned down by your computer when you WFH. Go enjoy a cup of coffee, or take a rest!

Multistate Mode

For some buttons/switches with three or more stages, we develop a solution for you! The multistate mode can make Fingerbot stop at one of the positions you set, for example, the up, down, and stop positions of a shade switch.

Touchless Control

Place your hand over the induction area. It will detect your existence and trigger the button/switch. Stay sanitized will help protect both you and your family.

App Control

Apart from triggering Fingerbot, everything you need to customize your Fingerbot can be found in our App. Changing movements, setting up schedules, switching modes, programming, and sharing control of the Fingerbot with your family members, etc.

Voice Control

No more getting out of the car to shut the garage door! Together with Adaprox HomeHub, the Fingerbot Sense follows your voice commands. Ask it to close the garage door through your favorite voice assistants (currently supports Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant).

Remote Control

It would be handy if the TV remote can turn the lights on/off. Using Fingerbot together with a Fingerbot remote (sold separately in add-ons) can perform just like that. With Fingerbot Remote, it’s like carrying your A/C buttons in your pocket!

Timer and Schedule

Waking up with a freshly brewed coffee! The timer/schedule function enables you to make the Fingerbot trigger itself at your preset time. 

Fingerbot Sense works with many different third-party services, such as Alexa, Google Home, and IFTTT. Let it be a part of your smart home system. You can set up automation and scenes on these platforms and make Fingerbot work together with other smart services you have.

Fingerbot Sense comes in two editions: the Bluetooth version and the Zigbee version. 

The Bluetooth version can directly work with your smartphone. But without the help of a Homehub, some features are restricted, and the control distance is limited to be near your smartphone. 

The Zigbee version of Fingerbot requires Homehub, but it is more stable in terms of connections, and the connection range is wider (please check the add-on section for details of upgrading Fingerbot to the Zigbee version).

Fingerbot Remote supports Zigbee protocol only. To control the Fingerbot Sense via a Fingerbot Remote, a HomeHub is needed to act as a bridge to convert all the instructions to the cloud.

You can add an arbitrary number of Fingerbot Sense, Toolpack, Remote, and HomeHub on Kickstarter. 

All Fingerbot Sense is Bluetooth version by default. To upgrade your Fingerbot Sense to the Zigbee version, please select the ‘Upgrade a Fingerbot Sense to Zigbee‘ option in the add-on. We will upgrade one Fingerbot to the Zigbee version for each upgrade purchased in the add-on.

In the later fulfillment survey, you can choose the color of Fingerbots from Black and White.
