Paradrop is a smart virtualized router designed to integrate cloud services directly into home networks, enhancing the management of smart home applications such as thermostats and security feeds. It features a programmable substrate, virtualization framework, and multiple wireless interfaces to provide low-latency connectivity for devices. The platform also enables third-party apps to deploy services to users' routers, creating a seamless and efficient smart home experience.
