Philips Hue Bridge Pro Smart Hub

This is where the Bridge Pro gets really clever. With MotionAware, your existing Hue lights double as motion detectors — no extra hardware needed .

Place at least three Hue bulbs in the same room, and the system detects movement by sensing tiny disruptions in the Zigbee signal between them . Walk into a room, and the lights turn on automatically. Walk out, they turn off. It’s smart, seamless, and surprisingly accurate .

Use it for:

• Everyday automation — lights that follow you from room to room

• Security — get push notifications (with Hue Secure subscription) or set lights to flash red if unexpected movement is detected at night
