Noon Smart Lighting System

"Let there be a pleasant light” seems to be the premise from the start-up that designed and developed this smart lighting system. Noon Home made a system that easily replaces a conventional switch with its control pad, it has built in sensors that enable it to sense the light’s intensity in the room, send the info to your smartphone, that will in return allow you to manage the type of light you wish to get at any given time. There are 3 preset light modes: Relax, Bright and Everyday, but you also get fully customizable options on the app that goes with it. Customize additional scenes to set the stage for other moods, occasions, or activities, set movie night or reading moods for example. After getting the main control unit you may also grow the system bigger, to other rooms by just purchasing additional extension switches. It’s also launching with Amazon’s Alexa on board, another good reason to think about this setup at your house. watch the video below
