Philips Hue are all the rage, a new Kickstarter project is aiming to make
any lightbulb a smart one. It's called Emberlight, and it's a simple intermediary device that you screw into the E26/27 socket and then screw your lightbulb into. From there, merely leave your switch in the on position and you'll be able to control your lights wirelessly from your phone.</p> <!--break--> <p>Emberlight connects over Wi-Fi, so you don't need a hub. It also includes Bluetooth, so it will be able to see when your phone is or isn't in a room and turn lights on or off accordingly. And like Hue, you can control multiple lights through the app (due for iOS and Android), set alarms,
control remotely, and more.</p> <p>Of course, you'll need a dimmable bulb to screw into Emberlight, which encompasses all incandescents and halogen bulbs by defaults, and a selection of CFL and LED bulbs (it's worth noting that most dimmable CFL and LED dim in steps and not a smooth gradient as glowing filament bulbs do).</p> <p>Emberlight's on Kickstarter now, seeking to raise $50,000 (at publishing time they'd already raised more than $112,008 since the project had been online). The first "early bird" pledges will get an Emberlight for $49, a $10 discount over the projected retail price. And you'll be waiting for a bit — they're estimating that they'll ship in February 2015.</p> <p>Source:
