GoKawiilSome tech at IFA was much more unusual than the rest. Here’s what caught our eye. Govee
IFA is in full swing, and the Berlin expo has gathered advanced tech from across the globe to show off, from all-new vacuum features to ultra-advanced AI ecosystems ready to help manage your home. Then there are the products that made us go, “…Huh.”
When tech companies are throwing everything they’ve got at IFA, things can get a little weird. Here’s the wackiest tech we spotted, what it’s supposed to do, and how useful we think it could be out in the real world.
Govee’s mood-reading sky light
Govee’s mood-interpreting light may not be as far-fetched as you think. Govee
Govee has long been at the forefront of strange home lighting creations, from literal curtains of light to spread across your garage to table lamps that look more like alien artifacts. Now Govee is showing off one of its oddest products yet: a dome-like ceiling light made to mimic the sky while being “mood-responsive.”
In this case, mood-responsive means you can use Govee’s AI to talk about your mood or how you’re feeling, and the Govee app will come up with ceiling light color schemes to match. But the light can also create a specific blue wavelength designed to evoke blue skies and natural daylight.
Too weird to work? Not as weird as you may think. I’ve tested Govee’s AI before, and you really can generate lighting patterns based on your mood or random musings. But Govee already has so many lighting scenes in its app that I didn’t find it very practical — although definitely fun. I wonder how well it will work with a full ceiling light.
