Specifically, Lutron announced it is integrating its Lutron Caséta Wireless, RadioRA 2, and HomeWorks QS lighting systems with Google Assistant. In addition to Google Assistant, which is integrated into Google Home, users can also access their Lutron lighting accessories via Google’s Pixel phone, as well as select Android phones and Android Wear.
The Lutron Caséta Wireless System can already access Google Assistant via Lutron’s Smart Bridge controller, while the Radio RA 2 and Homeworks QS will be available in June and connect via the company’s new Lutron Connect Bridge.
According to the company’s press release, Lutron lighting system owners can control individual lights and be able to ask if a particular light is on. Because of the integrated technology, Lutron users will be able to command Google Assistant to turn lights on or off, and the system will respond in real time.
“Lutron continues to work with best-in-class companies to enhance our customers’ connected home experience,” Ed Blair, senior vice president of Lutron Electronics, said in a statement. “This latest integration with the Google Assistant reinforces Lutron’s leadership in the connected home space. With Google Home’s voice-powered Google Assistant, customers can interact with and direct their connected homes easier than ever, and for today’ busy families, this service is invaluable.”
Lutron’s Caséta Wireless Kits start at $99 and are available through a variety of electronics and home goods retailers, including Best Buy and Home Depot. The Lutron App for Caséta Wireless is free and available for download at Google Play and iTunes.
