Eighty quid for a light up button in an oversized housing, backed by a basic radio and relay plugged extension cord. Jfc.
The whole underlying thing bar the critter friendly button could be picked up for less than 20. 3D printing is so ubiquitous that the missing parts/modifications would be pennies on top, with a little CAD work.
The concept is great but the inevitable Chinese clone will be hot on its heels at a fraction of the cost if the demand is there. At the core of it, there is nothing new here and it’s very easy to copy.
I’d mind what it controls, especially anything that heats or moves.
I would totally use that to unlock my door if i forget the keyy, i can make my dog learn a specific knock sequence and open only if he see me from a window.
Or is it too complicated? Dunno, i never had a dog but i saw some dogs do crazy things.

Maybe i can take a monkey if a dog can’t do it /j
I know this is all in jest but I think you have thought of the worst way to remote control smart devices.
you could teach your roomba to do it?
