Philips has unlocked the power of white light with Philips Hue white ambiance. Inspired by the sun, this connected light can gradually brighten to help you wake up naturally and gently dim to help you drift off to sleep more peacefully. Delivering every shade of white light from cool daylight to warm white, and with easy access to light recipes that help you to relax or feel energized throughout the day via an app on your smart device or the Philips Hue dimmer switch in the starter kit, Philips Hue white ambiance enhances every moment at home effortlessly.

“Light impacts us both physically and emotionally, we experience this every day when waking up and going to sleep,” says Chris Worp, Leader of Philips home lighting business. “With Philips Hue white ambiance, we want to give people control of the impact that white light has on their wellbeing at home, particularly around day to day routines. By having every shade of white light at your fingertips, you can choose the perfect light you need to feel better, whether you want an energizing light for exercising or a dimmed nightlight for winding down to sleep.”

Philips Hue white ambiance was designed with your day-to-day activities in mind, and truly comes to life with the new ‘Routines’ feature which will be in the upcoming Philips Hue app. Imitating the rise of the sun, ‘Wake up’ routine gently increases in brightness to naturally wake you up in the morning. Replicating the sun setting, ‘Go to sleep’ routine gradually dims until it is off, preparing your body for falling asleep. For those with young children who have to get up in the middle of the night, ‘Nightlight’ is a new light recipe which delivers a low level of light while also minimizing exposure to blue light, lessening the disturbance to your sleep cycle. The proven light recipes in the Philips Hue app are designed to help you throughout the day when concentrating on work, reading, relaxing, getting energized, or unwinding at night.
