Abstract

A device controller can include one or more touch sensors, an exterior panel, and a wireless transceiver to communicate with a local network of smart devices and one or more intermediary devices for transmitting scene commands for implementation by a second device controller. The device controller may create a mesh bridge with the one or more intermediary devices to establish a communication link with the destination controller and generate and transmit a set of scene commands via the mesh bridge to the destination controller to cause the destination controller to execute the scene.
