Philips Hue Bridge Pro just made it easy to add motion sensing to your old smart lights
The company also launched a video doorbell and a budget-friendly Hue Essentials range at IFA 2025.
The Philips Hue Bridge Pro supports a new feature called MotionAware, which uses radio frequency (RF) sensing to detect changes in the Zigbee signal between bulbs, converting them into motion-sensing devices without the need for external motion sensors.

It supports connection to Zigbee devices to add capabilities like schedules, out-of-home control, customized lighting scenes, and more.
