Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box for Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple HomeKit
Category: signify hue
The Philips Hue Play HDMI sync box delivers a premium surround lighting experience for your home theater by seamlessly syncing your Hue smart lights with movies, music, and video games. Watch, listen, and play with increased excitement as your lights dance, flash, dim, and brighten in response to the content on your screen.
The sync box provides real-time syncing with superior color accuracy, as it receives data directly from the source before it reaches your screen, unlike devices that react to the screen itself. This ensures a premium ambient lighting experience with no delays or mismatched colors.
Personalize your settings using the Hue app, such as adjusting the brightness and speed of the effects, or defining a default setting for startup. Control the sync box through the app, the on-product control button, or by programming your TV remote with custom commands.
Enhance your entertainment center with any combination of Hue color lights and the sync box. Create a TV backlight with a Hue Play gradient light strip or light bars, and add additional ambient lighting with Hue bulbs, light tubes, and more. The Hue sync box works exclusively with Hue lights to ensure color consistency and the premium experience you expect from the brand.
The HDMI sync box is designed to fit discreetly on a shelf or cabinet near your TV and HDMI devices, staying out of the way so you can fully immerse yourself in the action on your screen. Setting up surround lighting with the sync box is a simple process: download the free Hue app, connect your Hue lights and Bridge, connect up to 4 HDMI devices, and follow the instructions to set up the sync box and start syncing.
The Hue sync box requires a Hue Bridge to unlock the full power of Philips Hue smart home lighting. With the Bridge, you can enjoy benefits like multi-room control, automations, and smart control from anywhere in the world. Philips Hue is the smart lighting system that illuminates your home inside and out, without straining your Wi-Fi.
The Hue Play HDMI Sync Box comes with one power adapter and one HDMI cable, providing everything you need for an immersive media experience. To unlock the full potential of Hue, a Hue Bridge is required, which enables automations, control from anywhere, and a secure, stable connection that won't drain your Wi-Fi. Additionally, you can use Matter to connect your smart home devices to your Hue smart lighting system.
With four HDMI inputs, the Play HDMI Sync Box allows you to connect multiple media devices to your smart lights, resulting in a seamless, colorful display that responds to and reflects the content you watch or listen to. The setup process is straightforward, with the sync box easily connecting to your Hue Bridge and allowing you to start using it immediately with any TV and HDMI device. The sync box can be placed on a TV cabinet or shelf without blocking any part of your screen.
For convenient smart control, you can set up voice control in the Hue app and use simple voice commands to control your lights with Alexa or Google Assistant. Additionally, the Hue app allows you to customize the way your lights react to the content on your TV, enabling you to control the speed and intensity of the light effects, adjust the brightness of the room, and more.
