Background and Identification

The Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Generation is the third rendition of the smart thermostat developed by Nest Labs. The device employs machine learning, meaning it first collects data on home temperature settings to build a reference set. Then, the device learns from the data it collects what temperatures home inhabitants prefer at different times throughout the day. Additionally, the Nest Learning Thermostat can use built-in sensors and the location of home inhabitants’ phones to determine when people are home. This intelligence enables the device to be as energy-efficient as possible by only heating/cooling the home when necessary.

The Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Generation has a circular face. It is designed to mount on a wall, and it extends 1.21 inches out from its mounting position. The thermostat has a 3.3-inch screen. The circular border around the screen is black in color, while the rest of the device is stainless steel. The encasing comes in a variety of colors, including white, black, copper, polished steel, mirror black, brass, and stainless steel.
