"We're all used to having our lights respond to verbal commands at this point. But normally, there's a middleman passing our commands along, whether that's our phone or a smart speaker that is actually listening to what we say. Lepro is eliminating the need for a separate controller by building a microphone directly into the power cord on its new AI Lighting Pro series."
"All have a built-in microphone and a voice assistant called LightGPM, which you can summon by saying "Hey Lepro." While the capabilities are limited to controlling the light, the level of control is impressive. It can handle basic stuff like turning lights on and off and changing colors, but it can also use an LLM to create lighting patterns and effects in response to moods or activities like "I'm doing yoga" or "I'm a very stressed-out Mets fan.""
Lepro's AI Lighting Pro series embeds a microphone directly into the power cord, enabling voice control without a separate phone or smart speaker. The lineup includes an S1-Pro AI light strip, an N1-Pro AI rope light, an OE1-Pro AI rail-thin floor lamp, and a TB1-Pro AI table lamp with three configurable movable rings. All models run LightGPM, a voice assistant summoned by saying "Hey Lepro," and use an LLM to generate lighting patterns for moods or activities. The lights also support Wi‑Fi integration with Alexa and Google Assistant. Pricing and US launch timing are unspecified beyond "later in 2025."
