Smart lighting company Govee has a new product that creates a quirky new product category. The Gaming Pixel Light displays still or animated pixel art set to 8-bit soundtracks. It can also show you weather updates, sports schedules and Bitcoin prices on its retro display. But it wouldn’t be a CES 2025 gizmo without AI something or other stuffed inside, so you won’t be surprised to learn that its companion app lets you generate AI pixel art from text prompts.
As the product name suggests, the Gaming Pixel Light is marketed as a (desktop or wall-mounted) lighting companion for gamers. But it could work for anyone who wants a groovy ambiance or fun conversation piece in their home. The light has over 150 preset scenes, or you can create your own — manually or with the app’s AI chatbot. You can also control it with Alexa or Google Assistant.
