It can be connected to any host PC such as a one-board PC, Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi, Laptop, Desktop PC, or even a Macbook. The Zi-Stick will transform your chosen platform into your Zigbee network.

With Zi-Stick, connect any Zigbee device to your own Smart Home. The host PC will save all automation, settings, and scenes locally to your own setup.

Zi-Stick can be utilized in premier community driven
