Loupedeck is a standalone hardware page-control device for smart-automating a computer setup — running and orchestrating multiple applications together from a physical console.
I tested both sides of the product: the editor software and the hardware + firmware — and could update and fix issues in both the editor and the device itself. This is the nearest precedent in my history to a hardware-plus-software product like a smart-home platform: one person covering the app, the firmware, and the physical device, and closing the loop by fixing what breaks on either side.
