Lowe's宣布关闭自己的Iris **arthome平台，此举可能不会让任何人感到完全意外。

该公司上周在第三季度财报中宣布了这一举措，理由是“对业务进行战略重新评估”，同时也更加关注“核心家装业务，提高盈利能力”

Lowe's就此事向我们提供了以下官方声明：

“Lowe’s is in the process of finding a buyer that remains committed to providing customers with the same level of service they have come to expect from Iris. We do not have timing or additional details to share at this time, and it remains business as usual. There are no changes to Lowe’s support of the brand, product or service as we search for a buyer.

Offering customers **art home products is still an important way we serve their needs, and we will continue to carry Iris and other **art products on our shelves. However, we will focus on the retail side of the Iris business, not on supporting our own **art-home platform. The **art home category continues to be an important part of our customers’ home improvement journey, and we remain committed to carrying the breadth and depth of **art home products and brands to meet our c***umers’ needs now and in the future.”

Lowe's早在2012年就推出了Iris，以此向公众销售自己的智能家居产品。该产品线提供了一些不同的ZigBee和Z-Wave设备和传感器，以及一个专有的Iris集线器，但这些设备还与其他智能家居集线器（如Wink和SmartThings）配合使用。虹膜还集成了其他产品线，如飞利浦色调和巢。

Lowe's将继续销售其他品牌的智能家居产品，包括通用电气、谷歌、Nest、亚马逊等公司的设备，但公司自己的Iris平台在不久的将来不会分享同样的荣誉。
