The US-based Qualcomm, at the ongoing India Mobile Congress (IMC) 2025, has partnered with homegrown Havells to bring connected features to daily appliances, including air conditioners, washing machines, water heaters, smart fans, and smart fans. <\/p>\n
This is expected to enable the appliance maker to deliver enhanced energy management, cloud integration, and voice-enabled control across its smart home ecosystem, according to a joint statement. <\/p>\n
At the event, the companies jointly demonstrated a Lloyd air conditioner, powered by the Qualcomm QCC743 connectivity platform. <\/p>\n
The Lloyd AC, equipped with Qualcomm\u2019s tri-radio solution Wi-Fi 6 (2.4 GHz), Bluetooth 5.4, and IEEE 802.15.4 for Thread\/Zigbee will offer seamless interoperability across smart home ecosystems. <\/p>\n
The platform is built on the reduced instruction set computer (RISC-V), features a compact memory footprint, extensive interface support, and a streamlined module path (QCC743M), making it ideal for embedded applications and scalable appliance integration. <\/p>\n
