You can do this with scheduled scenes or adjust the lights manually from your smartphone. Have bright lights flashing for dance music and transition to lighter pink when a romantic song comes on. Help Your Dog Deal With Separation Anxiety It can be rough leaving our dogs behind all day, especially when it starts getting dark earlier in the day. Not only is your dog alone, but they’re also often left in the dark. While some dogs are content to wander in the dark, those that are prone to separation anxiety can find a dark home more stressful. You can link your lights to motion sensors. As soon as your dogs walk into a room, the lights turn on to keep them company while they play or nap. Go Big With Your Landscape Lighting Your homelighting control is also an excellent way to add some personality to your landscape lighting. Adjust the color of your lights to fit your particular mood or match up with an upcoming holiday. Smart lighting is especially useful during Christmas when you want to schedule certain lights to turn on at a given time to create dynamic displays.
