Here are the floor plans for the exhibitors on Levels 4 and 6.
Belkin will be introducing its latest range of Home automation and Networking products in Singapore later this year.
Head down to tech@vogue to get a preview and hands-on of the WeMo, @TV, and the AC1200DB Wi-Fi Dual-Band AC+ Gigabit Router.
Sneak preview of Belkin’s upcoming home-automation and networking devices.
I was at the pre-opening preview of tech@vogue in nex Mall last Friday afternoon.
Control switches at home remotely using a smartphone/tablet.
What caught my eye was this demo booth that Belkin has set up to provide a preview and hands-on experience of some of the home automation and networking products that it will be introducing into Singapore towards the end of this year.
These include WeMo, which was announced at this year’s CES 2012 at Las Vegas, the @TV, which provides a new way to watch, record and experience television content, as well as the AC1200 DB Wi-Fi Dual-Band AC+ Gigabit Router.
These Wi-Fi enabled gadgets allow you to use your iPhone or iPad to remotely switch on/off your wall power outlets from outside your homes.
The @TV can be controlled using both iOS devices and Android devices when viewing or recording television content.
Below are pictures and more information on these gadgets.
WeMo Home Control Switch and WeMo Home Control Switch with Remote
WeMo devices allow household electronics plugged into a wall outlet to be remotely switched on /off from a mobile app on a smartphone or tablet.
WeMo works with a home’s existing electrical system and requires only a Wi-Fi network and free smartphone app to set up and control.
@TV
@TV works over WiFi or 3G/4G networks, enabling users to access all content from their home theatre on their tablets, smartphones and laptops.
@TV works with the @TV mobile app, which is available for both iOS and Android platforms.
AC1200 DB Wi-Fi Dual-Band AC+ Gigabit Router
Enhanced reliability, greater speeds, and enhanced streaming capabilities.
Featuring Broadcom’s fifth-generation (5G Wi-Fi) 802.11ac chip technology, the Belkin AC1200 DB provides gigabit speeds wirelessly to extend network range and provide more reliable coverage at greater distances.
I call it N Wow! Microsoft Singapore demonstrated how it has transited from a traditional fixed-room-and-desk office layout, to a Starbucks-style working environment where employees can work at ANY available desk in its six floors of office space at One Marina Boulevard in Singapore.
No more assigned desks. Click to enlarge to see more of the new way of work.
What happens to the personal paraphernalia that adorn the typical office cubicle or room?
Well each employee, including Managing Director Jessica Tan, gets a locker to store their personal effects.
Plenty of collaboration spaces.
Each desk comes with power-sockets, a wireless mouse and keyboard, and a Samsung monitor that comes with a privacy screen.
Nothing else – not even a phone.
A single cable from the monitor plugs into the employee’s laptop.
In addition to connecting the display to the monitor, the same cable also provides Internet connection to the laptop, as well as control over the wireless mouse and keyboard.
Every floor has a “landing area” at the entrance – a convenient rendezvous point.
Why isn’t there a phone?
Employees rely on Microsoft’s Lync telephony and collaboration solution which allows them to communicate using the Internet.
It is now as easy to work from home as it is to work in the office.
Yet more employees prefer to come physically to the office than to work from home – because of the more open and spontaneous collaborative environment the revamp has facilitated.
For a start, there’re no walls and cubicles between employees.
Workers can choose a private booth to dock-in if they really need to work on or discuss about something really confidential.
But by-and-large, most work in the open, at one of the docking desks.
Overview of rooms and workstations. Reminiscent of Metro UI?
Microsoft Singapore invited the regional media to walk around their operational offices to see this concept live.
I suppose this is Microsoft’s way of demonstrating how their technology can help enterprises and businesses adapt to the latest trends of work, where people tend to collaborate more in the course of work.
Instead of a concept demo, Microsoft is showing how they walk the talk – in fact, they’ve been working this concept in Amsterdam for the past five years..
And it was an impressive walkabout – to see what many organisations have only talked or dreamed about.
