LAS VEGAS, Jan. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Jasco, leader in consumer electronics, LED lighting and smart home products, today announces its new partnership with Google. The partnership integrates Jasco’s core product line of GE branded Z-Wave plug-in and in-wall smart switches and dimmers with Google Assistant, so users can have a conversation with Google and control connected lighting fixtures with their smartphone or voice-activated commands through compatible hubs.

Each Z-Wave product enables wireless control to turn lights on and off, schedule a timed event or create a custom ambiance at any time of the day – from anywhere in the world. With the new partnership, Jasco can now better serve consumers by adding voice control across Google Assistant enabled and Z-Wave certified devices. Instead of being limited to a single device at home, users can now control lighting fixtures wherever they are – on the phone, in the home, in the car, etc. – to interact with the Assistant not only by voice, but also through typing and tapping.

“Our Z-Wave line transforms any home into a smart home to provide wireless control of lighting and other small appliances,” said Cameron Trice, CEO of Jasco. “With the new Google partnership, our users have the option to easily connect their Z-Wave product with the Assistant. By simply saying, “Hey Google” the Assistant responds accordingly and seamlessly integrates into user routines without having to learn new commands – i.e. turning on, off appliances or dimming the lights.”

In addition to Google, all of Jasco’s Z-Wave products are compatible with all Z-Wave certified hubs from leading brands like Samsung SmartThings, Wink, Lowe’s Iris, and Honeywell.

At CES, Jasco will have in-booth demonstrations of various GE branded Z-Wave products working with Google Assistant at booth #12000, as well as live product demonstrations in the Z-Wave Alliance Experience House at Sands in booth #41717.
