Over the past week, I've looked through the biggest announcements from CES 2024, and while useful devices like the Linxura smart home controller and LG's all-in-one AI washing machine earned a spot in my roundup of the best smart home devices at CES, that doesn't necessarily mean they are my favorites, but that doesn't mean they are my favorites No, the hidden hero of this year's CES for me was the Twinkly smart curtain light
This $200 canvas consists of the highest density smart LED string lights in its class Each of these pill-shaped lights work together to create animated graphics and ambient lighting on any wall These curtains won't make your day any easier, and they are expensive for interior design However, this nifty smart lighting system can enhance any living space, whether it's creating a mood in a room with exciting color change patterns or looping GIFs on a wall to share with company
Matrix's curtains are easily installed with two lightweight aluminum bars at each end, allowing the string lights to hang in position without getting tangled up use the Twinkly app to fully map the effects played by this light display, customize itThe Windows Screen Mirroring feature allows the Smart Curtain to be used as an extended display while gaming or watching videos This creates an immersive experience by extending a large open world beyond the game monitor into the wall space behind it Sprawling scenes of natural landscapes and city skylines pop, and colors react to in-game actions such as explosions
In addition to games, I can imagine this smart light curtain fitting into a living room or basement entertainment setup as live wall art, as Matrix's curtains form a background-less image with string lights working together to transforming the situation The result is a refined look, a pop of color, and a focus on the image
Matrix is part of the Twinkly smart light ecosystem and can be expanded with additional matrix curtains or connected to other Twinkly lights for larger, synchronized installations The purchase of the Twinkly Music accessory (sold separately) pairs with the Matrix and allows the lights to synchronize and respond to sound Additionally, the curtains integrate with the most popular smart home platforms like Amazon Alexa and Google Home for voice control and automation
Twinkly's Matrix is currently available in awwwtwinklycomおよびAmazoncomで19999ドルの紹介価格で予約できる。480個のマッピング可能なLEDを搭載した33 x 33-foot model and a 16 x 79-foot model with 500 mappable LEDs The product will be available starting January 31, 2024
