Bluetooth Speaker in an LED Light Bulb by Sony

Sighting this image afar off, what could you had probably thought it is?

Well, quite as "bulby" as it look, it has more than that! The above picture depicts the latest & the first of its kind I'd ever seen. What's it all about? It's a "Musical-Illuminating" Object, as I will have it tagged. That has 360-lumen, which also work with Smartphone app.

Lights and music are a time-tested combination, and now Sony finally offers them in one product. Sony has just announced the LED Light Bulb Speaker in Japan, a Bluetooth speaker that screws into a light fitting to give your living space the gift of simultaneous sight and sound.

You can control the 360-lumen bulb with a smartphone app, of course, allowing for fine control of volume and brightness, and there's also a dedicated remote that can be paired over NFC. In a press release, Sony touts the speaker's compact, attractive design — which personally reminds me of the Harman Kardon SoundSticks subwoofer, though this is presumably somewhat quieter — and says that it lets you play music in places where it's been difficult to put audio equipment before.

Wondering about how such could be done, I come to realize that sound-light or sound-activated & controlled gadgets are already in vogue. The above is a typical home application of the important and a prominent usage if this amazing LED Bulb. How beautiful will it be to have your beautiful, colourful & "strange" new bulb controlled by your handheld.... Oooh, I'm sure that's gonna be soothing. :)

In case you can't quite imagine how this might slot into your life, the above are some promo images of people enjoying the light bulb speaker.

The LED Light Bulb Speaker is set to be out in Japan come May 23rd, and Sony's online store lists it for ¥23,880, or about $199.

Love to have it?  Go for it!

Enjoy!!!!!
