Twinkly revealed a sleek new product at CES 2024 called the Matrix Smart LED Curtain. The company says it’s the curtain with the “highest LED density in its class.” It features up to 500 LED lights that are fully mappable and programmable.

The smart LED curtain is exactly what it sounds like — a massive web of lights that run vertically from a top bar to a bottom bar. And when illuminated, they almost make the Matrix look like a solid curtain. Twinkly designed the smart LED curtain to be easy to install and incredibly lightweight, allowing you to place it in most rooms without any issues.

Using the accompanying smartphone app, you can designate a variety of lighting styles to the Matrix. This includes both static patterns and flowing colors, giving you impressive flexibility to craft a light show that fits your space.

Andrea Tellatin, Twinkly’s co-founder and CEO, says the Matrix “transforms any space into a canvas of light and color.”

If you’re using the Matrix in a large space, two or more curtains can be chained together. You can even pair them with Twinkly Music, allowing them to synchronize to the beat and create unique patterns that flow across all LEDs.

The Matrix Smart LED Curtain will be available on January 31 with a starting price of $200. Two variants will be up for grabs — a square unit with 480 mappable lights and a vertical unit with 500 mappable lights. Preorders are now open on the Twinkly website.

The best tech of IFA 2026: a repairable laptop, liquid-cooled power bank, AI toothbrush, and more
From an AI toothbrush to a liquid-cooled battery, this is the best tech of IFA 2026
Best Of IFA 2026

IFA Berlin brought innovation from across the globe into one giant exhibition, and we got the chance to experience the new-gen "tech" firsthand. Walking through Messe Berlin, we saw a laptop designed to be repaired at home to a power bank with visible liquid coolant, an AI-powered toothbrush with a camera inside your mouth, and a robot vacuum carrying another.

The variety is what makes IFA one of the best tech shows. IFA 2026 runs from September 4 through 8, and we've spent our time in Berlin chasing down the products that caught our eyes. Some of these are clever ideas that may change how we use tech every day, while others solve a problem that I didn't realize existed.

This wild new TV mount moves your screen without you touching it
TVs can already adjust their picture and sound without much help from you. Perlegear now wants the physical screen to adapt to you as well.
Indoors, Interior Design, Lamp

TVs have become incredibly smart over the years. They can automatically tweak picture quality, adjust sound for your room, and recommend what you should watch next. Yet once you bolt one to the wall, there’s one decidedly old-fashioned thing about it: it’s staying exactly where you put it.

Perlegear has an interesting solution at IFA 2026. The company is showing off the AX1 Smart Adaptive Mount, a motorized TV mount that detects where you’re watching from and automatically moves the television to a more comfortable height. It’s an idea that sounds a little excessive until you think about how many different ways we use TVs today. You might be sitting on the couch for a movie, standing up for a workout, playing a motion-controlled game, or have kids watching from the floor. The ideal screen position for one isn’t necessarily great for the others.

iRobot’s new Roomba concept uses a piggybacking sidekick to reach tight spaces
The Roomba Duo pairs a powerful floor washer with a smaller robot built to clean hard-to-reach spots.

Robot vacuums have long forced buyers to choose between cleaning power and clearance. Heavy-duty wet-dry models pack enough scrubbing force to tackle stubborn, sticky messes, but their bulky frames often can't squeeze under low furniture. Slim robot vacuums can glide beneath sofas and beds, but they typically lack the muscle to do much more than sweep up light dust. iRobot's new Roomba Duo concept, unveiled at IFA 2026 in Berlin, aims to solve this problem with an unconventional approach that involves deploying two specialized robots to work as a team.
