Music-Matching Smart Lights

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Philips Hue and Spotify Make Lights Pulse to the Beat of Songs

— September 1, 2021 — Tech
Philips Hue and Spotify partnered to create what they call the "first-ever deep lighting and music experience" and it works by linking accounts from both brands. The experience makes it possible to sync smart lights with music, and beyond that, Philips Hue taps into the metadata of each song and uses an advanced lighting script to match the genre and mood of the song. This helps users to avoid seeing cheerful colors matched with slower, mellower songs, and vice versa.

With the Philips Hue app, there's also a brand-new Sync tab that makes it easy to make adjustments to the brightness, intensity and color palette of the lights for a completely custom experience. Now available for early access Philips Hue App 4 users, the program is set to become a permanent app feature in the fall.
Trend Themes
1. Music-syncing Smart Devices - There is a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to create devices and applications that synchronize with music and respond accordingly, creating a seamless audio and visual experience for users.

3. Advanced Lighting Scripting - The integration of technology that uses advanced lighting scripts to match the mood and genre of music presents an opportunity for companies to create innovative lighting solutions for a variety of industries, ranging from hospitality to construction.
Industry Implications
