GE Lighting Unveils Color Changing Apple HomeKit Connected LED Bulb!

GE Logo

GE Lighting is expanding there connected lighting line up, they already offer three models, those being the GE Link bulbs. These bulbs utilize ZigBee technology, and can integrate with the Wink home automation system. Today, Beth Comstock, the President and CEO of GE Business Innovations, announced that GE is making a color changing LED bulb that will work with Apple’s HomeKit technology. By working with HomeKit, GE will be bringing incorporating a very easy user experience, the ability to use Siri to control your lights.

With HomeKit you can group multiple lights together or keep them separate, and control them with command words. These new HomeKit LED bulbs will be color changing as well, this will be the first move into color LED connected lighting for GE. I am hoping GE will keep the cost down with them, as they did with the Link Bulbs.

These new bulbs will feature GE Align technology, this will take home automation to the next level, as the bulbs adjust to a persons sleep pattern. These bulbs will tune the light spectrum to help the body’s natural sleep cycle by controlling the blue concentration of light being broadcasted. For instance, when you wake up in the morning the bulbs will produce bluer tone and at night they can end the day with an amber light.

It is great to see that GE Lighting is continuing to expand there connected bulb lineup, and these new HomeKit col changing LED bulbs will be landing later this year!
