飞利浦 Hue 推出有线墙壁模块,将非智能灯具纳入其生态系统
Smart lighting company Philips Hue has launched its first wired wall modules. Installed behind existing wall switches, the new devices bring non-smart lights into the Hue ecosystem for the first time. Hue also announced new Play table and floor lamps that are more affordable versions of its Signe series, along with upgrades to its E14 candle bulbs that add a broader white light spectrum and Matter-over-Thread compatibility.
智能照明公司飞利浦 Hue 推出了其首款有线墙壁模块。这些新设备安装在现有的墙壁开关后面,首次将非智能灯具纳入了 Hue 生态系统。Hue 还发布了新款 Play 系列台灯和落地灯,作为其 Signe 系列的平价替代品;同时还升级了 E14 蜡烛灯泡,增加了更广的白光光谱,并支持 Matter-over-Thread 协议。
The new lights are now available globally; however, the Wired Wall Switch Modules are Europe-only. Signify CTO George Yianni told The Verge that there are currently no plans to launch them in the US, but the company would consider doing so if there’s enough interest. “DIY modules are not such an established category in the US; it’s more fully integrated switches,” he said. “If people really want these in the US, then maybe we’ll look at it. I think the modules are quite exciting; it’s something that we’ve talked about doing for a long time.”
新款灯具现已在全球发售;然而,有线墙壁开关模块仅在欧洲提供。昕诺飞(Signify)首席技术官 George Yianni 告诉《The Verge》,目前还没有在美国推出这些产品的计划,但如果市场需求足够大,公司会考虑。他表示:“DIY 模块在美国并不是一个成熟的品类,美国市场更倾向于完全集成的开关。如果美国用户确实有需求,我们或许会考虑。我认为这些模块非常令人兴奋,这是我们讨论了很久的项目。”
The modules are in-wall relays that install behind existing switches to control any non-smart light connected to them, such as recessed ceiling or pendant lights. Those can then be controlled in the Hue app alongside Hue’s smart bulbs.
这些模块是入墙式继电器,安装在现有开关后,可以控制连接到该开关的任何非智能灯具,例如嵌入式天花板灯或吊灯。之后,用户便可以在 Hue 应用程序中像控制 Hue 智能灯泡一样控制这些灯具。
Several companies, including Aqara and Shelly, offer in-wall relays that add smart control to existing lights without replacing the switch, but these are the first that will work with the Hue app.
包括 Aqara 和 Shelly 在内的多家公司都提供入墙式继电器,无需更换开关即可为现有灯具增加智能控制功能,但这些是首批能够与 Hue 应用程序配合使用的产品。
There are three versions of the Hue Wired Wall Switch Modules, starting at €44.99: a 1-channel module for single-rocker switches, a 2-channel module for double-rocker switches, and a dimmer module.
Hue 有线墙壁开关模块共有三个版本,起售价为 44.99 欧元:适用于单翘板开关的单通道模块、适用于双翘板开关的双通道模块,以及调光模块。
A fourth module is a wired version of Hue’s existing battery-powered wall module, letting you use your existing light switch to control Hue lights. Unlike the relay modules, this one will work with Hue’s MotionAware and can be part of the new whole-home motion-sensing system.
第四款模块是 Hue 现有电池供电墙壁模块的有线版本,允许用户使用现有的电灯开关来控制 Hue 灯具。与继电器模块不同,该模块支持 Hue 的 MotionAware 功能,并可作为全新全屋运动感应系统的一部分。
The new Play Table Lamp ($79.99 / €79.99) and Play Floor Lamp Large ($149.99 / €149.99) are lower-price alternatives to Hue’s Signe lamps. Designed for Hue’s entertainment ecosystem, they can sync with movies, music, and games through the Philips Hue Sync Box or Hue Sync apps.
新款 Play 台灯(79.99 美元/79.99 欧元)和 Play 大型落地灯(149.99 美元/149.99 欧元)是 Hue Signe 系列灯具的平价替代品。它们专为 Hue 娱乐生态系统设计,可以通过飞利浦 Hue Sync Box 或 Hue Sync 应用程序与电影、音乐和游戏实现同步。
The candle bulbs cost $109.99 (€109.99) for a two-pack of the white and color-changing lights. Upgrades include higher lumen output, a wider white light spectrum (1000-20,000K), and Hue’s Chromasync color technology. Designed for decorative fixtures, chandeliers, and wall sconces, they dim to 0.2%. The bulbs now feature Matter-over-Thread technology, so they can pair directly with ecosystems like Apple Home and Google Home without requiring a Hue Bridge.
蜡烛灯泡两只装售价为 109.99 美元(109.99 欧元),支持白光和彩色变换。升级之处包括更高的流明输出、更广的白光光谱(1000-20,000K)以及 Hue 的 Chromasync 色彩技术。它们专为装饰性灯具、吊灯和壁灯设计,调光深度可达 0.2%。这些灯泡现在支持 Matter-over-Thread 技术,因此无需 Hue Bridge 即可直接与 Apple Home 和 Google Home 等生态系统配对。
