Q: QuestionHow does it detect which color to change to on the led strips? I seen off market brands use a camera so I'm curious on how this knows where and how to change.

Asked 4 years ago by TannerS.

• A:Answer When paired with the Hue Sync Box, color placement of incoming video signals to box are detected by the sync box and translated to the light strip. Surprisingly it does this with very little to no lag time.

• A:Answer The hue sync box will allow you to set up rooms with multiple hue color lights in addition to the gradient light strip. Most of hue color lights will work, such as the A19, Br30, and e12. You don’t even need the gradient light strip, just the sync box and and hue color lights.
