ComfyLight is a simple and elegant home security solution, which is build in a smart, sensor-enriched light bulb. And is controlled by a smart phone application. When you are away, ComfyLight protects your home by simulating your presence, so your home always seems to be occupied by you and any would-be intruders are discouraged. Second, ComfyLight detects intrusion with its motion sensor. If an unexpected presence is detected ComfyLight sends out an alert to your smart phone. Third, the bulb reacts to intrusion, by flashing to warn the neighbours and help to scare the intruder away. When you are at home, ComfyLight provides a soft white LED light and automatically switches on and off as you need it.
ComfyLight is extremely easy to install because it fits into any standard bulb socket. Simply screw it in and connect it with your smart phone. ComfyLight – security for everyone.
“The CES Innovation Award 2016 is a huge honour for us. It reiterates our passionate commitment to user experience and design as well as our motivation to make home security smart, sleek and affordable to everyone."
The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)TM, the producer of CES 2016, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technologies, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976. ComfyLight will be displayed at CES 2016, which runs January 6-9, 2016, in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Entries are evaluated on their engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use/function and user value, how the design and innovation of the product directly compares to other products in the marketplace and unique/novel features present. Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech products and services coming to market. CES 2016 Innovation Honoree products are featured on CESweb.org/Innovation.
