Interesting functions that can be used in lighting include, for example, controlling lighting based on the so-called biorhythm, or controlling lighting to a constant value, i.e. depending on the intensity of daylight and, for example, simultaneous presence in a given space. TUYA is also practical in entertainment venues or restaurants where we need to use RGB colour lighting control (red, green, blue and their combinations). The TUYA system is quickly gaining popularity for several reasons. Creating dependencies based on state of individual sensors and generating IFTTT-type associations is an integral part of it, automatically. But it also offers the option to connect to global systems such as Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa and, via shortcuts, Apple HomeKit. Another indisputable advantage is the price availability and easy integration into a wide range of products. That is why the TUYA system is offered by a growing number of light producers. TUYA app The ingress protection rating (IP) indicates the resistance of electrical equipment against foreign body penetration and the ingress of liquids, especially water. It is expressed in so-called IP code, which consists of the “IP” characters followed by two digits: the first digit indicates protection against dangerous contact and against the ingress of foreign objects, the second digit indicates the protection rating against the ingress of water.
