The end-to-end connected platform will bring smart home functionality to Chaviarte's core business door lock and entry systems, providing users with full visibility and remote control over their homes, the Israeli company said.

By augmenting Chaviarte's existing door lock and entry system solution through the WeR @Home platform, we aim to provide users with one of the most advanced smart home security systems available on the market."

Essence is said to be the number one provider of wireless alarm systems in Europe, providing its advanced technology to some of the world's largest security monitoring brands. 

Chaviarte's CEO Ricardo Jardim said "Essence's WeR @Home solution was a very easy choice because of Essence's distinctive know-how, quality in service and technologically innovative products and for being perfectly aligned with our view of a what an integrated, safe and smart security/living IoT solution should be."

According to Essence, the partnership with Chaviarte will give its customers a seamless user experience and the ability to control a host of automated smart home functions and to ensure the security and safety of loved ones. Chaviarte's customer base will be able to leverage the Internet of Things with voice commands and additional features. WeR @Home boasts a range of key features including automated smart scenarios, indoor and outdoor cameras, and window and door sensors, Essence said.
