Smart lights aren’t new, but can we really call them “smart”? The only “smart” thing about them is automation and being able to control them from our phones. But Linkind is trying to challenge that narrative at CES 2026 by announcing new AI -powered smart lights. So, if you’re looking for something inside or outside your home, Linkind might have something for you .
AI meets outdoor lighting
For those looking for outdoor lighting , the Linkind SP6 Smart Solar Pathway Light could be what you’re searching for. Linkind claims this is the world’s first smart solar pathway light with app-controlled pattern switching. This means that instead of just providing basic illumination, these lights can display different patterns, adjust colors, and change brightness levels through the accompanying app.
Also, since they’re solar-powered, you don’t need to worry about wiring or electricity costs. Linkind says they’re designed to work reliably year-round. The company also introduced the SL6C Aura Smart Solar Spotlight, which uses what they call a “dual-aperture optical design.” Basically, it can create focused spotlights to highlight specific features and softer ambient lighting to fill in the surrounding area. Users can also create layered lighting effects thanks to the use of AuraScape color blending technology.
Indoor lighting gets modular
If you prefer your smart lighting kept indoors, Linkind unveiled the T19 Smart Light Stick. This isn’t just your typical smart bulb or smart light. The company has taken a modular approach to decorative lighting. The interesting thing here is that it’s not just one product. But rather, you can think of it as a lighting system that can be adapted into different fixture styles.
This includes pendants, sconces, table lamps, and floor lamps. It also features multi-zone color control, so different sections of the light can display different colors simultaneously, creating more dynamic effects than traditional smart bulbs .
Entertainment lighting grows up
Last but not least, there is the ET8 Smart TV Light Strip with HDMI 2.1 Sync Box. It connects directly to your TV setup and syncs lighting effects with what’s happening on screen. The system supports HDMI 2.1, which means it can handle modern gaming consoles and high-refresh-rate displays without lag. Linkind says it can synchronize up to 64 connected devices. It also comes with a feature called Precision Spatial Mapping to coordinate lights throughout an entire room rather than just around your TV.
Powering all of this is Dotis. This is Linkind’s AI lighting engine that supposedly interprets natural language into actual lighting behaviors, and seeing how AI is the rage at CES 2026, this doesn’t come as a surprise. There’s also a more advanced version called Dotis+ that uses ChatGPT integration, allowing you to describe the lighting effect you want in plain English and have the system create it automatically.
