This gadget can be programmed to open the garage door when it senses you are near. It comes in two parts: a controller that connects to the door’s terminals and power, and a sensor that sticks to the top of the door. Users must connect the controller to the garage mechanism with a wire, but the app offers straightforward, convenient controls when running.
