Canyon Controls needed a new hardware design across four product types: the Power Pack, Dial, Switch and Sensor. Each needed to share one bus system and work with existing Z-Wave smart home systems.
Putting a Z-Wave radio in every unit would add cost the product could not carry.
We built the platform on the ESP32-C3 processor and connected all four product types using a Cat5e bus system.
We designed a CAN bus bridge to connect the system to Z-Wave networks. The bridge removes the need for a radio in every unit, lowering both cost per unit and design complexity.
