In the smartest Smart Home, everything plays nicely together, and IoT smartplug maker Zuli is further joining up its dots with the addition of Hue support. The Zuli smartplugs, which differentiate themselves by using Bluetooth to figure out when rooms are in use and adjust devices accordingly, can now command Philips' color-changing LED bulbs too. If you've not been keeping up with your IoT news, Zuli's system relies on compact plug-in adapters that pair via Bluetooth with your iPhone. From there, you can remotely turn on or off whatever device is plugged into them - be it a lamp, a heater, or something else - and, with compatible bulbs at least, control dimming, too.
