Over the past three to four years, smart light panels have come to the smart home market. Companies like Nanoleaf and LIFX launched a bunch of these smart lighting panels, which use a combination of hardware and software. The hardware consists of light panels, typically made up of LED lights that can be controlled individually. The software allows you to control the panels and create custom light shows. Now, GE Lighting, a division of Savant Home, launched their new smart lighting panel called Cync Dynamic Effects Smart Hexagon Panels.

Cync Dynamic Effects Smart Hexagon Panels are modular, wall-mountable panels that can create eye-catching and directional light shows in up to 16 million colors. Each panel has six controllable zones, and you can create custom light shows by assigning different colors and brightness levels to each zone. You can also sync the panels to music or create your own light shows using the GE Cync app.

"We're excited to add smart hexagon panels to our Cync Dynamic Effects family of colorful smart products that already includes A19 and BR30 bulbs, indoor and outdoor light strips, and the neon-shape light. Consumers will enjoy the ability to integrate these products together and control them easily to create the best possible smart lighting experience from a trusted brand known for quality," said Kara Perdue, Vice President of Product Management at GE Lighting, a Savant company.
