LAS VEGAS – (January 9, 2017) – Skylink Group, a leading provider of connected home safety solutions, today announced the NOVATM, a Wi-Fi enabled, universal garage door controller device that can be retrofitted directly onto most garage door controllers on the market, transforming existing garage door openers into smart openers through the SkylinkNet iOS or Android app. In addition to remotely opening or closing most garage doors on the market through the SkylinkNet app, the NOVATM is compatible with the If This Then That (IFTTT) platform and Alexa Voice Services, allowing homeowners to manage a variety of connected home accessories from a myriad of manufacturers through one device. Doubling as an LED light fixture, the NOVATM is also designed to detect the audible alarm from smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in the home, automatically opening the garage door for added ventilation in case of an emergency.

Connects to a majority of existing garage door openers and smart home accessories on the market through the IFTTT platform
