I use Philips Hue for light automation quite extensively.
- 6:30am to 7:00am during weekdays, the bedroom and living room lights fade on slowly, emulating sunrise. They switch off automatically when I leave home for work on a morning.
- 45 minutes before sunset, the living room lights fade on to full brightness over a 30 minute period. The bedroom lights do the same, but to a dimmer setting.
- At 10:30pm, the bedroom lights fade themselves to a brighter but warmer relaxing light setting, in preparation for going to bed.
- If I'm not home when 11:00pm comes around, based on the location of my phone, the lights will all switch themselves off again.
- The hallway lights turn themselves using a motion sensor on if motion is detected and the ambient light level is low enough - they come on fairly bright during evening hours, but the dimmest possible night light setting after 11pm and through the night. After a minute or two of detecting no motion, they switch themselves off again.
