In a significant move for smart lighting enthusiasts, Signify has officially announced a partnership with Nanoleaf, marking an exciting expansion of the Philips Hue ecosystem. This collaboration will allow users to integrate Nanoleaf Shapes—specifically the Hexagons, Triangles, and Mini Triangles—into their existing Philips Hue setups.
Integration Details
The integration will require the Philips Hue Wall Light Module, a device designed to facilitate the connection between the two brands. Once the module is in place, users will be able to control their Nanoleaf panels directly through the Philips Hue app. This seamless integration means that these third-party smart lights can be incorporated into Hue scenes, automations, and entertainment experiences, enhancing the overall functionality and aesthetic of smart home environments.
For those interested in this new offering, the Wall Light Module is currently listed on the Philips Hue website, priced at .99. Additionally, starter kits that include the Nanoleaf panels are available, starting at 9.99. However, it’s worth noting that these starter kits will be released in select markets only, so potential buyers should check availability in their region.
This partnership not only broadens the Philips Hue product lineup but also offers users a chance to create more dynamic and personalized lighting experiences within their homes. As smart home technology continues to evolve, collaborations like this one highlight the growing trend of interoperability among different brands, ultimately benefiting consumers seeking versatility and innovation in their smart devices.
