What is Smart Lighting?

Smart Lighting generally refers to light fixtures and even individual light bulbs that can be connected to a smart home system. These have features like remote control, scheduling, dimming, and even color-changing abilities. 

Smart lighting started to become popular in the 2010s as LED lighting became more popular. This does not mean that LED lights are all smart lights. Countries are phasing out and moving away from incandescent lighting and switching over to LED, CFL (Compact Fluorescent Light), and halogen light bulbs. This means that there are other lights on the market, but without a smart-hub integration, those lights are not considered smart lighting.
