- All right, all right, all right.
Macna, are you ready to find out what's coming?
(crowd sporadically cheers)
Are you ready to find out what's coming?
(crowd cheers loudly)
Alright, me too, me too.
So who here remembers this slide from way back when,
when the Aperture family of brands were being discussed?
Who remembers this?
(audience mumbles)
Yes, exactly.
So on this, on this right here,
you don't see Neptune Systems, but we're in a system,
we're a brand that manufactures in the aquarium space.
There are two others, AI and Ecotech.
So we have three brands here that all manufacture
in the aquarium space.
Two of those brands talk to each other right now.
The brand of Aqua Illumination and Ecotech Marine.
How do they do that?
They do that through an app called Mobius, okay?
This is an app that connects those two products together,
allows them to communicate.
So the question becomes, how do we get AI and Ecotech,
those brands, to talk with Neptune systems, right?
How do we allow that to happen, okay?
How do we get that communication place to happen?
And so if we think really hard about that,
so how do AI and Ecotech communicate?
They communicate through Mobius.
How do we get Neptune to communicate to AI and Ecotech?
Well, we just simply get that communication that happens
between AI and Ecotech, AI and Ecotech and Mobius,
to also communicate with Neptune systems, right?
How do we make that happen?
We make that happen with a module.
Called the Mobius Wireless Module.
The MXM.
What do you see on this, on this screen here?
You see a Neptune Systems module, that's for sure, right?
But then you also see the Mobius app logo,
You see the Ecotech logo,
you see the Aqua Illuminations logo there.
So this is the module that will bring all of those brands
to communicate together and with each other, right?
That will allow that interoperability.
So with your controlling your pumps and your lights, right,
and you can't control those through fusion,
that's a thing of the past.
In the future, you'll be able to do that.
How exactly will that happen?
Well, you'll have the MXM module,
that will communicate with Mobius.
You then group up your lights and your pumps
onto that Mxm module, and you just say, you know what?
I want to transfer that control over to my Neptune.
I want the Neptune to control it, alright?
And then boom, Neptune controls it.
Now, those lights and pumps are connected to the MXM module
and that MXM module is connected to your Apex Fusion apex.
It's done.
You can now use your apex to control what?
It can control all of the different pumps.
So that includes your Vortex, your Vectras,
never before controlled by the Apex,
a Vectra, never before controlled by the Apex,
a Nero pump.
You'll be able to control all of those
in the Apex Fusion interface,
just like you would control the Wav,
just like you control a Cor, right?
Something that you already know how it works.
It's gonna work the exact same way,
maybe with some more features,
maybe with a little bit of less features.
But the main controllability will be there
for all of your pumps.
Who you here uses Ecotech or AI lighting?
Great lights, great lights.
I know I talked a lot about the sky.
That does not diminish what great lights those are as well.
So those will also work with the MXM module.
So we got Radiance, we've got Hydras,
and we got Primes that will all connect to the MXM,
communicate with the MXM, and allow it to be controlled
through your Apex, right?
So is anything gonna change with your Neptune gear?
No, nothing is changing in the way
that your Neptune gear communicates.
If you want to use your Neptune gear and you don't want
to use those other companies' great products, that's fine.
Your Sky's gonna work the same way.
Your pump, your Wav is gonna work the same way, right?
Those things are not changing, right?
So we have taken this with the Trident release in 2019.
We kind of said, you know what,
we're just not gonna tell people anymore
when things are coming out.
You know, like we just don't wanna do that,
you know, we released- we told everyone about the Trident
in 2017...
(presenter sighs)
2 and a half, what was it?
Year and a half- two and a half years later,
Trident comes out.
There were speed bumps that we did not anticipate, right?
With this though, I can say that you must be patient
for good things to come, okay?
You must learn patience.
But, I will say that we have teamed up
with Santa and his elves this year, okay?
The entire team at Neptune Systems is working
on this product to help bring this product to our customers
in conjunction with Santa and Elves,
so you can probably read
into when we will likely see this by, okay?
So it's a upcoming product and something
that you will see very soon.
Can I get a Boo-ya?
- [Audience] Boo-ya!
- Can I get a Boo-ya?
- [Audience] Boo-ya!
(presenter claps)
Yes, so control of your AI and Ecotech products
will be coming to Neptune Systems, Apex Fusion,
in a very short matter of time.
We'll still need to be patient for that, right?
Things just don't materialize because we want them,
as much as I would like that to happen,
but you know, that's not the way the world works.
So in a short matter of time,
you will be able to control any of our brands' products
together, all in your apex.
You know what, if you like the other way
that you can control it, you can continue to do that, okay?
Nothing's going to change in that aspect.
But, we want to give you more options-
I'm gonna use the word again-
because we want you to be successful, right?
So that's part of the great new products
that are coming from Neptune Systems.
Who's excited about that?
(audience clapping) (present clapping)
All in one interface, being able to control all
of the brand's products from one place.
Very nice.
