Nanoleaf is all-in on the matter with new lights and updates

Smart lighting brand Nanoleaf announced a slew of new lighting products at CES – all of which have been Matter certified. New and existing products will work together to create a complete smart lighting system, complete with TV screen mirroring, music viewing, dynamic lighting and automations.
Nanoleaf was one of the first smart home companies to launch Matter-enabled products, which it did when it launched the Matter device in November 2022.
Its new products will all be available for purchase in 2023, although their releases will be staggered throughout the year. Nanoleaf also announced that its popular modular decorative lighting sets – Shapes, Elements, Canvas and Lines – will receive a software update later this year to make them compatible with Matter, which is good news for anyone. who have invested in their wall display and want to upgrade their smart home system to Matter.
Shapes, Elements and Lines lights will then be able to function as Thread edge routers, which allow other smart devices to connect to your smart home system.
In the meantime, here are the new features on offer. At this stage, prices have not been announced.
Essentials bulbs and light strips

First, and available in Q1, there are four types of bulbs: A19, BR30, GU10 and a recessed downlight, all with white and color functionality. All are capable of dynamic lighting and can work together in scenes.
Nanoleaf 4D TV Starter Kit

Launching in Q2 is the Nanoleaf 4D TV Starter Kit. It is available in two length options: 55 inches-65 inches and 65 inches-85 inches.
The starter kit includes a screen mirroring camera and a Matter-enabled smart light strip. The kit uses Nanoleaf’s new Sync+ technology to not only reflect the action on your TV, but also to sync with your Nanoleaf sets, so all your lighting in a room acts as a screen mirror or plays a scene such as “Aurora Borealis” or “Vibrant Sunrise”.
Nanoleaf Skylight

The Skylight is a unique modular ceiling light, compatible with Matter. The Skylight is made up of square modular RGBW LED panels that can be arranged in different patterns. It is also equipped with Sense+ sensors for motion detection and to enable additional lighting automation.
Like other Nanoleaf lights, it’s intelligently controlled, connects via Wi-Fi and has all the same features as existing Nanoleaf sets, including Rhythm Music Visualiser, screen mirroring, dynamic lighting scenes and group scenes.
It can also act as a thread edge router.
Sense+ commands and “Nala” automation learning assistant
Nanosheet
Finally, the Sense+ and Nala orders will be launched in the third quarter. This line includes a wireless smart light switch, a wired smart light switch and the Nala Learning Bridge (although the wired light switch will not be available until 2024 in Europe). These products work together to create a personalized and automated smart lighting system.
Nala, Nanoleaf’s new automation learning assistant, will learn your preferences from your routines and implement them when it comes to turning lights on and off, creating scenes, and choosing the brightness and colors.
All three products contain motion and ambient light sensors. The learning bridge also acts as a wire edge router and color changing night light.
