In comparison with many smart home systems, usually containing a main controller to communicate with other sensors, the Aetherlink includes a gateway inside a camera so it can control all sensors in the house. With Z-wave technology, users can easily complete the installation and one camera can integrate with up to 232 sensors.

With the flourish of IoT, GKB's Aetherlink solution integrates with home security, and ensures that event photos will be uploaded to the cloud platform when thieves break in . Even if a camera is broken, the evidence will be safely saved in the free cloud storage facility provided by GKB. Users need not worry about data loss.

In addition, users can simply use smartphones to create their own life-style profile. By downloading the Aetherlink App from the App Store or Google Play, users can control and manage all sensors. For example, notification when the kids come home when a door sensor is triggered. Users can also control air conditioning by using their smartphones, which fulfills the idea of remote-control management.
