The Philips Hue motion detector connects to the Hue bridge so you can automate your entire home lighting or a single room to respond to movement in the house. Users can setup time of day when the motion sensor should turn on lights when motion is detected. For example, if a toddler wakes up, you will need a softer glow.

The reliable detection the motion sensor provides when you exit supports this and also helps you be more energy efficient.
