The Philips Hue App Can Now Customize Lighting Scenes so They Suit the Layout of Your Rooms
Philips Hue's new SpatialAware feature uses room scanning and an algorithm to distribute colors naturally across lights, enhancing immersion in nature-inspired scenes, launching spring 2026.
- This past week at CES 2026, Signify unveiled Hue SpatialAware, a new Philips Hue feature launching in spring 2026.
- Because preset scenes previously scattered colors randomly, SpatialAware maps each Hue light to distribute colors intentionally for a more natural look.
- Using a phone camera, users scan rooms with iPhone and iPad cameras with LiDAR or tag lights from multiple angles on non‑LiDAR smartphones, then an algorithm distributes colors by position and orientation.
- The company rolled out broader updates including bridge migration and assistant improvements, adding multi-bridge migration to a single Hue Bridge Pro and Apple Home support for Hue Secure cameras with AI upgrades arriving in Q1 2026.
- Because SpatialAware requires Hue Bridge Pro sold since September last year, and non‑LiDAR smartphones need extra tagging, reviewers noted varied preferences and pending real‑world performance.
