No cloud subscription. No remote server. Everything runs locally, inside your home.
Most smart home platforms fail when the internet does. Omnelys was built from the start to require no external connection for operation. Your home works in a power cut. Your home works if the supplier's servers go down. Your home works in a decade, when the startup may not exist.
01
Controller
The Omnelys Controller
A single rackmount unit installed in your plant room handles all local processing. No cloud required — everything runs from hardware inside your home. Quad-core ARM processor, hardware-encrypted SSD storage, and a dedicated network interface ensure sub-100ms response across all systems.
02
Network
A dedicated home network
Omnelys installs a dedicated, segmented network for all smart home devices — separate from your personal data network. Devices on this network cannot reach the internet except through a controlled whitelist. Your security cameras, sensors, and controllers cannot be reached from outside.
03
Interface
Keypads and touch panels
Physical keypads are the primary interface. Brushed stainless, brushed bronze, or powder-coated finishes to match your interior. Each keypad is addressable, configurable, and has an optional e-ink display that shows room state. Touch panels for complex spaces with full scene visualisation.
04
Sensors
The sensing layer
Omnelys uses a network of passive infrared, temperature, humidity, CO₂, lux, and door-contact sensors to build a real-time picture of your home. Presence detection that actually works — without cameras in living spaces. Occupancy-based automation that knows when a room is empty.
05
Audio / Video
Multi-room AV
Omnelys integrates with professional AV equipment from Sonos, Denon, Yamaha, Linn, and others. Multi-room audio with independent volume per zone. Video matrix switching for source routing. Integration is native — not a HDMI-CEC workaround.
06
Lighting
Adaptive lighting control
DALI-2 and DMX dimming for professional-grade lighting control. Omnelys tracks solar elevation and adjusts colour temperature across the day — warm amber at dawn, neutral white for working hours, warm again at dusk. Scenes that follow the light outside, automatically.
Installation
Three paths into Omnelys
Retrofit
For existing properties
Non-invasive integration with your existing wiring and systems. No replastering, no rewiring. Compatible with any lighting brand, any HVAC manufacturer, any AV setup you already have.
Signature
New build or major refurbishment
Designed in from the start. Omnelys works with your architect and M&E contractor to specify the correct cable routes, equipment positions, and riser requirements. The cleanest possible installation.
Bespoke
Exceptional properties
For properties with unusual requirements — listed buildings, multiple wings, outdoor structures, or advanced AV. A dedicated project designer assigned for the duration. Full CAD documentation and commissioning.
