Smart Home Show: Lockitron's Cameron Robertson & The Story Behind The New Bolt Smart Lock

from The Smart Home Show

After having a hugely successful crowdfunding campaign in 2012 for their Wi-Fi smart lock, Lockitron struggled to get the product to work well with Wi-Fi. They eventually got products out to 10 thousand backers, but decided late last year to go back to the drawing board and create an entirely new smart lock in the Bolt. In this podcast, Lockitron CEO Cameron Robertson tells the story of the how they came to the decision to create a new product, the challenges the company faced over the past few years and what the plan is going forward.
