Unleash colors from your TV screen with new WiZ HDMI Sync Box
Eindhoven, the Netherlands – Signify (Euronext: LIGHT), the world leader in lighting, is unveiling new TV sync features and products for its smart lighting brand WiZ, enabling users to effortlessly immerse themselves in a world of dynamic colors and moods. With the new WiZ HDMI Sync Box with TV backlight, users now have an easy and affordable way to sync lights to their home entertainment content, taking their movie night, sports watching and gaming time to new levels. The new Gradient Light Bars and Gradient Floor Light are designed to be the perfect addition to your TV sync experience. After being configured in the WiZ app, they will match colors to the TV screen corresponding to their physical location and create a fascinating surround lighting experience.
Bring your screen to life
The WiZ HDMI sync box with TV backlight is all that the users need for bringing their screens to life. By simply connecting the Sync box to an HDMI media device such as a streaming stick, set-top box and gaming console, and attaching the LED strip to the back of their TV, users can make lights sync with the colors and brightness of the TV screen. No need to put a camera on top of your TV screen and there is no need for a complicated calibration procedure. It supports HDMI 2.0 and video formats up to 4K at 60Hz with HDR10+/Dolby Vision. The Sync box reads the video signal directly from the HDMI input, instantly analyzes the entire screen, and generates ultra-accurate colors on the lights. Featuring a three-side segmented RGBIC light strip for easy mounting on the back of TV, the HDMI sync box offers two different sizes, fitting TVs from 55” to 65” ($89.99) and from 75” to 85” ($109.99).
The clean setup and personalized experience make the WiZ Sync Box perfect for every style and TV watching occasion. With the four preset sync modes – Cinematic, Vibrant, Relaxation and Rhythmic – and customizable brightness, color saturation and intensity, users can set lights to closely follow all the colors with drastic brightness change or to gradually transition while matching colors to the dominant hue on the screen. The HDMI Sync Box works with any WiZ color-capable light that supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Users can link as many lights to the Sync Box as they like (they need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network) and make them sync with TV simultaneously. The Sync Box also has a built-in microphone that can capture audio playing from any source and make lights change colors and brightness with the music. Control is simple via the WiZ app, voice (with Google or Alexa) or the WiZ remote control. Users can also set the auto-switching feature in the app, so their TV sync lights will turn on and start syncing automatically whenever the HDMI media source provides a signal.
