The Swedish home design retailer's TRÅDFRI smart lighting system will soon be compatible with some of the most common smart home hubs on the market: Apple Homekit, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa. The TRÅDFRI system will also be far cheaper than other connected lights on the market, making the platform an enticing gateway for homeowners holding off on smart appliances because of their high cost. The Swedish home design retailer first announced its smart lighting system as part of its push to make homes more connected back in March, but at that point it wasn't compatible with any of the major smart home platforms, as users were left controlling the lighting with a dedicated remote control or the TRÅDFRI app. Smart bulbs don't quite measure up to a pair of custom Yeezys on the coolness scale, but the new compatibility will make the lights much more useful on the path to making connected homes cheaper for everyone.
