Privacy Focused

With on-device data processing and storage, self-hosting apps can protect user privacy. We included a physical microphone switch and a camera curtain with more privacy enhancements on the way.

Open Source

For transparency, offer users the right to modify and repair for long-term maintainability and compatibility, our hardware and software stacks are made open source.

Versatile

Developers can easily customize their Pod to expand its capability such as by adding Zigbee/ Zwave, Lora radio, PCIe accessories, or fully custom hardware.

Developer First

Easy-to-use software libraries, APIs, as well as common hardware connectors to expand capability (such as STEMMA/Qwiic & PCIe) enable developers to focus on innovating.

Interactive UX/UI

Ubo Pod offers a multimodal user interface including RGB LED ring, color display, tactile buttons, speech interaction to deliver a rich user experience.

Always On

Design emphasis on private always-on (always listening, seeing, sensing, and computing) ai applications that can achieve awareness of its surroundings.

Your Data, Your Terms

Ubo Pod enables developer communities to bring openness, transparency, and privacy to the device ecosystem. Go beyond proprietary and walled gardened platforms!
