At the IFA 2025 technology showcase, lighting company Lepro stole the spotlight with the debut of its AI Lighting Pro series, a new range of smart lights designed to bring a deeper level of personalization into everyday spaces. Unlike traditional smart bulbs and fixtures, these lights are equipped with built-in microphones and LLM-powered AI, allowing them to listen, understand, and respond naturally to what users say — no extra hubs, apps, or smart speakers required.
The series includes a sleek tabletop lamp inspired by a planetary orbit design, vibrant LED strip lights, a flexible neon rope light, and a minimalist floor lamp. Each product is embedded with microphones that activate with the phrase “Hey Lepro”, enabling direct interaction with the lights themselves. This means you no longer need to route commands through Alexa, Google Assistant, or another smart hub — a shift that makes Lepro’s technology more accessible for those who want intuitive smart lighting without the complexity of an entire ecosystem.
What truly sets Lepro apart, however, is its AI design assistant, trained specifically on color psychology, lighting design, and mood-setting scenarios. Instead of users having to manually pick colors or scenes, they can simply say things like:
- “I’m hosting a birthday party.
- “Set up a romantic dinner.”
- “I just want to relax.”
The AI then interprets the intent and automatically adjusts brightness, tones, and color palettes to match the occasion. This elevates the experience from simple automation to context-aware mood creation, something many current smart lighting systems struggle to achieve.
In addition to AI-driven mood lighting, the AI Lighting Pro series offers features like DIY scene creation, where users can design custom lighting themes, and LightBeats music-syncing, which allows lights to pulse and shift in sync with your music — turning living rooms into instant party spaces.
The company also emphasized that its lights only “listen” after the wake phrase is spoken, addressing potential privacy concerns. Since the microphones are built directly into the lights, they reduce dependency on external devices while still keeping user control simple and direct.
Lepro has not yet disclosed pricing or an official release date, but confirmed that the AI Lighting Pro series will become available later in 2025. Considering the growing trend of AI-powered personalization in consumer technology, these lights could redefine how people interact with their homes — blending functionality, mood-setting, and entertainment into a seamless experience.
By introducing lights that can truly “understand” your plans, Lepro is positioning itself not just as another smart lighting company, but as a pioneer in AI-driven home design.
