Saving energy is a big plus in our book, but that's not the only use for this system. Philips hue can provide illumination for your indoor and outdoor spaces in an attractive way that doesn't require a lot of power. Additionally, the lights can be controlled on a room-by-room basis so you can create a specific mood for each part of your home or office. The lights can be used to create ambiance for the home and can be operated on timers so the lights are turned on when you want them. The bulbs have sensors that detect motion, which turns the lights on and off as needed. This means you don't need to turn the lights on and off manually if you are in an area where movement is detected. The lights will be dimmed automatically and the color will change to a new one, which is better for saving energy.
