Philips Hue Gets Dimming

Philips adds dimming to the Hue app-controlled lighting system in the shape of a "straight out of the box" wireless dimming kit consisting of a battery-operated dimmer switch and one Hue bulb.

Philips Wireless DimmingThe dimmer switch connects automatically with Hue bulbs, and handles up to 10 bulbs simultaneously. It can be mounted as a normal wall switch or used as a portable remote, and Philips promises "perfect" flicker-free dimming.

Users can connect other Hue-compatible products through the Hue bridge.

The Philips Hue wireless dimming kit is available in European markets from September 2015.
