• Re/code reports that Amazon is investing in a company called Luma, described as "one of several companies looking to reshape how home networks are managed ... Luma joins fellow startup Eero as well as Google’s OnHub among a new generation of devices aiming to offer simpler and better Wi-Fi experiences than those offered by a traditional router.: The goal is to "offer better coverage through a mesh network of multiple devices and use a smartphone app to set up, monitor and control the network."
The story also notes that Amazon's investment "was made by the company’s Alexa fund, and Luma says it is working to see how its products might integrate with the company’s voice assistant. For example, one might be able to eventually voice commands through Alexa rather than using the Luma app."
