Be alert, informed and aware

Knut is a small, battery powered, Wi-Fi enabled sensor hub that enables you to monitor your environment in near real time.

Knut can be used to:

Monitor the temperature of your home or aquarium
Monitor the humidity in your basement or cigar collection
Tell if someone has opened your liquor cabinet or refrigerator door
Measure how much vibration a package experiences during shipping
Thousand more uses that we haven't imagined yet - but you will

Knut can wirelessly connect multiple sensors (i.e. door switch, thermometer) to your home computer (PC, Mac) or mobile device (iPhone, Android). Because Knut uses email to send and receive data, it does not require any subscription or fees.

To be honest, i think for most of us its a too big of a footprint and the costs per device is high. (as to compare it with a visonic sensor perhaps (lifespan?)
