“The range of new products promising to transform your humble abode into a ‘smart home’ has exploded in recent months, but not all so-called ‘Internet of things’ devices are created equal. Bucking the trend toward everyday items that include obscure embedded features, France-based AwoX has come up with a simple smart-home solution that seamlessly merges utility with entertainment in its StriimLIGHT device. The LED light bulb doubles as a Bluetooth speaker that you can control using the AwoX Smart Control app on your smartphone, or from your desktop. The app allows you to brighten or dim the light, apply an alarm timer to its functions and control the speaker’s volume.”
