Sengled, the smart lighting company that’s hedged its protocol bets by making Zigbee, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth smart bulbs, has announced a slew of new products at CES 2022. The most intriguing is the Smart Health Monitoring bulb, and the most fun is the Wi-Fi Video-Sync TV light strips. Sengled has also pledged its support for Matter, the new smart home standard, adding a fourth protocol to its package. [1]

Figure 1 shows in terms of utility, the smart lightbulb can track someone’s sleep in addition to basic health metrics like temperature and heart rate. The bulb is designed to serve as a passive monitoring system that negates the need for dedicated wearable devices.

In that regard, there are some lingering questions about the accuracy of the bulb’s readings, especially when compared to more traditional health trackers like watches and rings that are worn directly on the body. However, the smart bulb should be able to track big movements, such as falls or other injuries. [2]

Sengled Light Bulb Release Date

At the time of writing, Digital Trends wrote that the Sengled Smart Health Monitoring Light is still in the development phase. The company has not yet mentioned any details about its pricing and the accuracy of its health-tracking capabilities.

The only information that we know so far is its launch date which is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Tech Times reported that once you connect [3] your Spotify account to the smart bulb, you can begin accessing the feature to see the sync-in beat through light movements. You can also change the color and the brightness of the lights based on your preference.

2022 Product Focus: Entertainment Lighting

One of those products is Sengled’s Wi-Fi Video-Sync TV Light Strips. These lights provide an engaging and immersive effect that extends what is showing on your TV to the wall behind it, delivering the ultimate entertainment experience. The lights will react to any content, regardless of the source input, including streaming services, gaming systems, traditional cable, and DVDs, matching the colors from [4] different areas of the screen to sections of the LED strips.
