# Hue Lights sample

> Note - This sample is targeted and tested for Windows 10, version 1903 (10.0; Build 18362), and Visual Studio 2019. If you prefer, you can use project properties to retarget the project(s) to Windows 10, version 1809 (10.0; Build 17763), and/or open the sample with Visual Studio 2017.

A mini-app that explores integrating Windows features with intelligent home automation. Specifically, it shows how you can use Cortana and 
Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth LE) to create an interactive experience with the [Phillips Hue Lights](http://meethue.com) (a Wi-Fi enabled lighting system). 

This sample runs on the Universal Windows Platform (UWP).

With Cortana integration, users are able to naturally interact with the lights through speech. They can turn the lights off, change their color, or even engage with Cortana in a back-and-forth conversation to adjust a specific light or change all the lights at once. 

Additionally, through Bluetooth LE, the app supports a proximity scenario where the lights are automatically turned on/off depending on a user's device relative to a Bluetooth LE beacon.
