X-Brain is said to run Android TV 7.1.2, and the user interface appears to be based on Kodi let’s you control media playback, home automation and security (CCTV). The router subsystem most probably runs OpenWrt, but I could not find specific information about this part. The video below gives a good overview of the capabilities of the device.
If you don’t have time to watch the video, I’ve included screenshot of the home automation user interface,
and the energy management UI.
