**DETAILS**

I just can’t stand morning alarms. No matter how soothing the noise or song I select, I always wake up agitated. Now, with a gentle light display, I wake up easy. Even if I am waking up well before the sun rises, the clock uses Philips Hue Lights to mimic the gradual increase of ambient light, allowing me to wake up naturally, without the use of an audio alarm.

However, that isn’t all. This clock features a motion detector paired with an audio alarm, so if you hide under the covers and pretend you’re still asleep, you will have to hear the awful noise of an alarm. However, if the clock notices that you are up and moving around, then the audio alarm will be disabled.

More than that, the clock connects to WeMo Smart Outlets, and can turn on your favorite morning gadgets, because if the ambient light and avoiding the threat of an annoying alarm isn’t enough to get you out of bed, then perhaps the smell of your morning coffee, or the gentle mumur of morning cartoons in the next room will coax you out from beneath the covers.

The clock also features manual modes to control the lights and Wemo outlets, so that once you are up, you can control them as you see fit.
