Adaptive lighting is the automatic adjustment of the temperature of the light in your home throughout the day. The researchers argue that this approach has a beneficial effect on the body's circadian rhythms .
With the recent iOS 14 update, such a feature appeared in Apple's HomeKit platform. So far, it is only supported by a couple of smart light manufacturers.
This article will show you how to use adaptive lighting with any smart light using the Home Assistant platform as an example .
Introduction
If you are interested in the setting, skip ahead to the next section.
This story began with the appearance on the free sale of the first smart switches without zero in a round socket. They were on eWeLink and Tuya firmware.
At the same time, a new firmware was released for the eWeLink platform, adding support for the local protocol. And these switches were released with new firmware.
At that time, in the smart home community, it was customary to solder the UART to it immediately after buying a new device and fill it with one of the opensource firmware, for example, ESPHome or Tasmota . This served as an additional obstacle for the “non-Gik” audience to enter the community.

As a result, I got three different settings for this component: for the Yeelight tape, for the Yeelight bedside lamps, and for everything else. For now, I've set up adaptive lighting for all the lamps I have and am waiting for a package of new Mesh lamps. I really want the light not to burn out my eyes on the way to the toilet in the evenings.
