Nanoleaf, which offers color-changing light panels, bulbs and LED light strips, among other things, and Corsair have teamed up to ensure that all of Nanoleaf's smart RGB products work with Corsair's gaming peripherals via sync the iCUE software.
Dynamic synchronized lighting effects
The supported product lines at Nanoleaf include the Lines, Shapes, Canvas and Light Panels. As with integrations with other lighting manufacturers, Nanoleaf RGB products respond dynamically and in real-time to gameplay with synchronization via iCUE, with color matching to the lighting effects of any Corsair peripherals. Corsair now offers keyboards, CPU coolers, gaming mice and headsets that are iCUE-capable with their RGB lighting. Users can choose from a total of 13 preset lighting effects such as Rainbow Wave and Rain, or create their own lighting effects in the software using the Custom Profile Creator.
The lighting setup is controlled and adjusted via the Nanoleaf app or the Corsair iCUE software via the desktop PC. Installation of the iCUE software is required to set up the integration. Then the Nanoleaf integration is activated in the iCUE app and added to the iCUE lighting. According to Nanoleaf, its own users have shown a strong interest in the integration into iCUE, which is why they decided to implement it.

Nanoleaf supports Matter and Thread
An interesting aspect for the near future will be how the light elements of Nanoleaf through the Matter support without special integration into such lighting programs. Nanoleaf announced support for Matter early on and is already using Thread as the transmission standard for some products such as the Lines.
The company has already tested the interaction with Samsung's SmartThings via Matter. After the launch of the cross-manufacturer smart home standard Matter 1.0 on Tuesday, Nanoleaf should also be able to have its products certified promptly in order to release Matter via software update.
