Description

"It is most impressive when working with live video, as it does a good job of keeping up with changing action happening on screen" - TechCrunch.com

Hue Camera creates an Ambilight-like effect using your Philips Hue lights and your device's built-in camera. The custom build algorithm of Hue Camera continuously analyses all individual pixels and takes hue, saturation, luminance, occurrence and many more factors into consideration to determine which specific colour is the most contributing to the overall ambiance. Your house will for example turn green when watching movies in the forest and turn blue for underwater scenes.

Because Hue Camera uses the built-in camera, it's not limited to a specific device and can be used for content on televisions, Apple TV, gaming consoles, BluRay/DVD players and even things off-screen like photos and paintings. Although Hue Camera was designed to work within a wide range of situations, you can change the speed of colour transitions and the intensity of the colour to your liking.

Stupid

Cannot connect to bridge. Like this app is just designed to take your money. No effort is put in even.

Broken app.

Connected to two different bridges but not responsive, doesn’t change the colours along with the tv, but it does change the color when you press on the light button in the setting, only one colour. Step up developers.

The app used to be working fine last year.

Works but missing key feature

Compared to the rest of the apps that are supposed to do the same thing, this app actually works (Make sure your lights are on and sync to the bridge).

What would make this a killer app is if you could designate the corners of the tv to separate lights (like zones), in order to have a more accurate ambient light at each corner of the tv.
