Yeelight Smart Bulb, With Silicon Labs SoC, One of 1st With Google Seamless

Silicon Labs is working with global smart bulb maker Yeelight on a bulb that supports Seamless Setup in the Google Home app, it said Tuesday. Yeelight is one of the first brands to deliver a smart lighting integration with Google Seamless, which allows users to quickly set up smart home devices in the Google Home app “in just a few steps,” said the chipmaker. Users can ask Google to turn on/off, dim or change colors by voice, pairing directly with Google Assistant. They can also set up Google Assistant routines in the app to automatically control lighting using voice commands. Yeelight is demonstrating the bulb at CES.
