Smart Living by Nice at ISE 2026: Where Technology Becomes Experience
January 2026 - Product News
Nice returns to ISE 2026 to unveil its most complete and integrated portfolio yet. Featuring a bold, immersive booth design and a showcase of its dual operating systems — Yubii OS and ELAN OS — Nice presents a unified ecosystem that brings intelligence, comfort, security, entertainment, and energy efficiency to residential and commercial spaces alike.
This year marks a pivotal shift: Smart Living becomes the core of Nice’s offering and identity. More than automation, Smart Living is a vision: a way to create seamless, intuitive experiences that adapt to how people live, work, and connect every day.
Smart Living: From Control to Experience
At ISE 2026, Nice introduces Smart Living as a holistic concept that redefines the relationship between people and technology. The use of “living” in its gerund form reflects movement, transformation, and the dynamic nature of how we experience our spaces. Whether it’s a fully integrated system or a single solution like gate or door automation, every product is designed to contribute to a smarter way of living: one that is more intuitive, more sustainable, and focused on giving people time for what truly matters.
“Smart Living” means designing spaces that do more for the people who live in them. It’s not just about connected devices. It’s about connected lives. From access control to lighting, AV, shading, climate, and security, everything works in harmony to enhance comfort, reduce complexity, and deliver tailored, high-end experiences across all types of environments.
Two Operating Systems. One Ecosystem. One Brand.
The Nice ecosystem is now powered by two interoperable operating systems, each tailored to different needs and use cases:
Nice Smart Living powered by Yubii OS
- Flexible, modular, and wireless-ready
- Ideal for retrofits and light commercial applications
- Supports over 3,000 third-party integrations
- Simple to install and scale as needs evolve
Nice premium Smart Living powered by ELAN OS
- Advanced integration with full-stack control
- Supports security, AV, lighting, climate, and entertainment
- Refined UI/UX, proprietary voice assistant, and seamless interoperability
- Compatible with Yubii OS for native control of wireless devices, motors, and shades
This dual-system architecture supports different user experiences, while delivering brand consistency and full ecosystem integration. For professional integrators, the ELAN–Yubii OS integration is designed to reduce friction across the entire project lifecycle — from system design and installation to long-term support. By offloading wireless communication to a purpose-built gateway, installers can support a greater number of devices, extend system range, and reduce troubleshooting related to battery-powered endpoints. The result is a cleaner system architecture, fewer service calls, and greater confidence as projects scale, particularly in homes with extensive shading, larger footprints, or mixed wireless environments. It also reflects Nice’s strategic focus on clarity, interoperability, and long-term value for both end users and professional installers.
A Comprehensive Solutions Portfolio
Visitors to Nice’s booth 2H300 will experience the full depth of the Nice Smart Living ecosystem, including:
- Nice ELAN OS 9: the latest software version offers advanced functionality for Nice Voice Assistant, compatibility with new hardware devices, and a redesigned UI that streamlines the management of home scenes, lighting, and automation.
- Yubii Home App: the core of Yubii OS, enabling installers and users to set up, manage and personalize scenarios directly from a smartphone covering security, lighting, climate and energy monitoring in one place.

Both ranges are easy to install and designed to enhance security and convenience.
