Turn your old smartphone into a gateway for Home Automation

January 15, 2022

Control all your smart devices, transform it into an intelligent camera, and interact with it through microphone or gestures


Adriano is the world’s first device that gives a second chance to your old smartphones and tablets, empowering them to become your gateway for home automation.

Control all your smart devices, use their camera remotely, or interact with them through gestures: equip your older devices with superpowers!

Adriano will comfortably host your old smartphone or tablet, both horizontally and vertically.

You can place it anywhere in your home and bring it around anytime you need: it will stay on thanks to its backup batteries, and it will stay connected thanks to the 4G / 5G network!

Thanks to Adriano and the Adriano app, your old smartphone will become the most intuitive interface to sync and control all your IoT devices.

Energy Management, Telemedicine, and Home Security: all of it can be controlled in one place, giving a second chance to your old devices!

Unlike the other Smart Assistants, Adriano works with batteries and a 4G/5G network: anywhere you are, even on the road, you will have full control of your IoT devices.

A simple example: our Van Life Kit allows you to camp anywhere and sync Adriano to a Smoke Sensor, a Door Sensor, a Leak Sensor, and a Siren

This way, you can enjoy your time outdoors and do it in full safety!

Our Health Kit is designed to pair with our S1MPLO 01 smartwatch, which will automatically sync with your Adriano app and allow you to make sure that the people you care about are safe and sound.

At Domethics, we believe it came the time to show that devices are not necessarily meant to be disused after a couple of years.

The components and the technology that they are built is still capable of incredible things: we create solutions to give them a second chance.

And also to give a second chance to the next generations of devices that will come… 

Often, the greatest ideas are right there: we just don’t notice them. 

With 6 billion unused smartphones all over the world, it really came the time to find another way to use their power and extend their lifetime.

We have the opportunity to re-use 17 tons of gold, 175 tons of silver, and 700 kg of rare-earths elements: crazy, right?

Using Adriano is as easy as pairing a pair of Bluetooth headphones. 

You just get your old smartphone, place it on Adriano, run the Adriano app and you can start syncing all your IoT devices.

You can interact with Adriano in so many ways: through the camera off your phone, through the motion sensors, through gestures, and even through your voice, with the microphone.

And don’t worry, more and more features will be developed once Adriano is released: the tech is there, we just need to learn from you what you desire!

Give a look at the first setup of our Adriano in our lab in Torino, Italy.

Whatever choice you make, it will surely be the right one. Adriano is entirely made from recycled plastic and eco-friendly materials.

You don’t have to decide now, we will send you a survey once the campaign ends asking for the finishing of your choice!

At Domethics we allow anyone in the world to access the broadest and most sustainable ecosystem of smart-home products and services.

We are three old-time friends who share a passion for technology and innovation.

In order from the left: Mirko, Samuele and Maurizio.

We can’t wait to have you on board to start something special together!
