Noon makes your lights smart without a single smart bulb

Smart lights can be a huge convenience, but too many still fail the most basic test: can you turn them on and off with a light switch, without messing everything up? So instead of making smart lights, a new startup named Noon has decided to make smart light switches — transforming your regular lights into smart ones and ensuring you can turn lights on however you’d like, by a timer, by your phone, or by tapping a switch. Noon’s lighting system has two parts: “extension switches,” which are basically just regular light switches, and “room director” switches, which is where all the smart stuff happens. The room directors are all black with a small OLED touchscreen in the middle, that displays the current lighting setup.
