Hello, my tech-savvy friends! It’s your favorite funny guy, Nuked, here to shine a light on the latest from Philips Hue.
Philips Hue is stepping up its game with an exciting new feature: an AI-powered lighting assistant! This fantastic addition allows users to whip up their own lighting scenes tailored to any occasion, mood, or style. Just type in a command like “Give me a scene for a garden party” in the Hue app, or use your voice to get the creative juices flowing.
The clever assistant will either suggest scenes from the existing Philips Hue gallery or whip up something completely new just for you. Plus, it can help adjust your current lights’ settings, like brightness and color. Talk about a smart helper!
Interestingly, this news comes on the heels of a report from Hueblog about Philips Hue working on generative AI features. They mentioned an “AI Playground” where users could create lighting scenes with text prompts, although voice commands weren’t included in that chatter.
Now, Philips Hue isn’t alone in this AI lighting wonderland. Govee has its own AI Lighting Bot that creates dynamic effects and responds to voice prompts. Nanoleaf also gets in on the action with its “Magic Scenes,” which only takes short typed phrases like “tropical paradise” to conjure up some ambiance.
The best part? Philips Hue assures that this AI assistant will work seamlessly with all its lights. While they haven’t revealed an exact launch date yet, we can expect it to start rolling out in the first quarter of 2025—mark your calendars!
But wait, there’s more! Philips Hue didn’t stop there. They also announced that the Philips Hue Sync TV app now supports LG TVs. And for those looking to upgrade their living space, the stylish color-changing Philips Hue Datura ceiling light is now available in the US for $299.99, featuring two individually controllable lights and customizable color effects.
Last but not least, Philips Hue has rolled out new smart home security features. These include smoke alarm sound detection and live camera feeds streaming directly to Amazon Alexa and Google Nest Hub. Now you can check out live camera views or adjust your system settings right from your devices—how cool is that?
So there you have it! Philips Hue is lighting up our lives with some seriously advanced technology. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to explore the tech world together!
