Safer at-home environment

With smart lighting and smart light bulbs, you can automate lights to come on outside if their sensors detect movement. You can also control your lights remotely, having them come on when you aren’t home to deter any would-be intruder. And while you’re sleeping, you can set up a light on-off automation to make it look like someone is awake and hence scare off anyone who may be thinking about trying a midnight break-in.

That’s beneficial, human-centric lighting in a nutshell, and it’s something that will be growing rapidly in use and popularity in the coming years, not only in smart homes but also in smart commercial buildings.

All of the above may at first seem like subtle things and only slight advantages over the simple on-off functionality of regular lighting, but taken all together and also, especially, over time (consider how much longer smart light bulbs last, too, compared to regular bulbs), the health benefits of smart lighting become very clear.

And remember: you don’t have to get it all set up at once. Start with a smart bulb or two, then move on to light strips or fixtures. Soon enough, your home will be completely outfitted with smart lighting and smart light bulbs, and you will begin to see the health benefits.
