REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- LIFX today announced that it has been named a CES 2017 Innovation Awards Honoree for the LIFX + : Wi-Fi-enabled Smart Bulb with Infrared. Products entered in this prestigious program are judged by a preeminent panel of independent industrial designers, independent engineers and members of the trade media to honor outstanding design and engineering in cutting edge consumer electronics products across 28 product categories.
The LIFX + is a Wi-Fi-enabled smart lightbulb, capable of 16 million colors, thousands of shades of white and infrared illumination, invisible to the naked eye, but easily seen by night vision cameras to dramatically improve their visible range.
"We're thrilled to have our LIFX + Smart Bulb with patent-pending Infrared Technology be recognized by the Consumer Technology Association. It's truly an honor and a testament to all the hard work that went into creating something so groundbreaking," said Marc Alexander, Chief Executive Officer of LIFX.
The prestigious CES Innovation Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™, the producer of CES 2017, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technologies, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.
LIFX's LIFX + : Wi-Fi-enabled Smart Bulb with Infrared will be displayed at CES 2017, which runs January 5-8, 2017, in Las Vegas, Nevada. A selection of Honorees will also be displayed at CES Unveiled New York, which features dozens of exhibitors and networking opportunities and runs 3:00-7:30 PM November 10 at the Metropolitan Pavilion in New York.
Entries are evaluated on their engineering, aesthetic and design qualities, intended use/function and user value, unique/novel features present and how the design and innovation of the product directly compares to other products in the marketplace.
Products chosen as CES Innovation Honorees reflect innovative design and engineering in some of the most cutting edge tech products and services coming to market.
