Modern and innovative: control lighting via the smartphone

Why should you rely on app-controlled lighting?

Flexibility and comfort: One of the greatest advantages of app-controlled lighting is flexibility. With just one touch, you can change the ambience in any room of your home. You no longer have to get up to switch on the light or adapt the brightness when you have just made yourself comfortable on the sofa. You can also create schedules for automatic switching on and off the lights or change the lighting on the go.

Adaptability: App-controlled lighting enables you to create a relaxed atmosphere for dinner or an energetic ambience for a party to make the lighting according to your wishes. Some apps offer the option of programming light scenarios that change automatically during the day.

Health and well -being: An often overlooking advantage of intelligent lighting is your potential to improve your health and well -being. By adapting the light color and intensity to the time of day, the system can help support your natural circadian rhythm.

Child safety: App-controlled lighting can also contribute to the safety of your children. For example, you can program night lights that automatically switch on when your child wakes up and goes through the house.

Creativity and personalization: The ability to change the color and intensity of your lights also offers an excellent way to let your creativity run free and personalize your home. For example, you can create color schemes that match your furnishings. However, some systems also offer the option of synchronizing the lights with music or films in order to create an immersive experience.

Environmental friendliness: Intelligent lighting systems, especially those that contain LED lamps, are much more environmentally friendly than conventional lighting systems. They consume less energy and have a longer lifespan, which reduces both the energy consumption (and thus in the long term also your electricity costs) and waste volume.

"For an even better and more seamless user experience, you can integrate your app-controlled lighting into a comprehensive smart home system. With platforms such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa or Apple Homekit, you can network your lighting with other devices such as thermostats, speakers, alarms or safety systems."

Installation of app-controlled lighting

The exact steps when installing app-controlled lighting can vary a little depending on the system. In general, however, the following steps must be followed:

1. Selection of the right system: There are now numerous types of lighting systems that can be controlled via apps. Some are intended for use in individual rooms, while others are intended to illuminate the entire home. Make sure you choose a system that meets your requirements.

2. Installation of the hardware: Next, the corresponding hardware must be installed. This can include exchanging your current light switches and the insertion of smart lamps.

3. Download and set up the app: Then you download the associated app to your smartphone and connect it to your lighting system. The exact instructions for this can be found in the operating instructions of the selected system.

4. Configuration of the lighting: Finally, you should configure the lighting according to your wishes. You can create different lighting scenarios, set up schedules and much more.

Take a little more time for this step and try out the different options to see what suits you best.

An essential aspect of a safe home is effective burglary protection.

Both physical security measures and technological solutions play an important role. In this context, the Ilight system offers several functions that can help minimize the risk of burglaries.

Presence simulation: With the Ilight system you can program that your lights go on and out at certain times to give the impression that someone is at home, even if you are on the go. This type of presence simulation can deter potential burglars.

Automatic lighting: You can set the Ilight system so that certain lights automatically tackle when you recognize movement in or around your house. This can not only help to deter burglars, but also offer you more security in dark areas of the house.

Integration with security systems: The Iight system can also be connected to other smart home devices, including security systems. For example, you could have a siren or other alarms triggered if the lights recognize unexpected movements.

Emergency lighting: In the event of a break-in, the Ilight system can be programmed in such a way that all lights approach in the house to surprise the intruder and draw neighbors' attention. It is important to emphasize that, although the Ilight system can help make your house safer, it should not replace conventional safety measures such as door and window locks, safety doors and alarm systems. Instead, it should be seen as part of a comprehensive security plan for your home. After all, it is always a good idea to regularly check and update the security measures of your house to ensure that you meet the current threats and risks.
