Getting reactive lighting for your home theater usually means buying a sync box that costs hundreds of dollars. Lepro is stepping in with a much cheaper option that uses a simple camera instead. The newly released Lepro STV1 system monitors the colors on your screen and matches the lights directly behind it. This setup works perfectly alongside any Apple TV to create a fun viewing environment without spending too much money.
The camera system reads your screen to match the lighting colors
The Lepro STV1 completely skips the expensive sync box requirement. It uses a wide fisheye camera lens to see what is playing on a television up to 85 inches in size. The camera points at the screen and captures everything in view. The system then corrects the bent image to properly match the colors in different areas of the video.
This means Apple fans get background colors that directly copy their current movies or games. The company also packed its system with custom features. You can use text, voice, or image commands to create specific moods for sports events or quiet movie nights. It even turns itself off automatically when it sees a blank screen.
Shoppers can choose between two sizes. The 11.8-foot strip fits televisions from 55 to 65 inches and costs $89.99. A longer 16.4-foot version covers 75 to 85-inch screens for $109.99. Both options are available right now. This is a very easy way to make your living room setup look great on a tight budget.
