CES 2016 is long over, but Sony has a yet another product it should have probably shown off at last week's event.
Then again, it's launching it in Japan only so far.
It is calling it a multifunctional light, though a "smart home hub with light" might actually do it more justice.
It can be controlled via a smartphone to be scheduled for your departure or arrival.
It can change its color, depending on the mood you tell it.
It can connect to other Wi-Fi connected devices and appliances as well.
For sensors, it has motion, luminance, temperature, and humidity.
It has an infrared controller, a speaker, a microphone, and a microSD card slot.
It can detect when someone's in the room and switch on other appliances at that moment.
It can also let homeowners communicate with whoever is in the house.
All of these are relayed to and controlled from a smartphone.
