Google has seemingly got a hand in seemingly every tech product in existence lately whether it’s phones, laptops, or even smart home goods like speakers and thermostats. It would hence not come as a surprise that the California-based company has also engineered a smart lamp.

Cleverly named “dLight,” as in “delight” or “the light,” the lamp is colored pure white and has a circular base with a pill-shaped component from which light is outputted. The pill can be turned around per requirement, allowing the illumination to be pointed straight at you or downwards (via 9to5Google).

Google designer Ben Gold, who revealed the product to the world, also says that dLight isn’t confidential or anything, but will “likely never be for sale outside of the company.”

Still, we are positive that the lamp would sell like hotcakes if Google ever makes it available to all. It carries those typical minimalistic ‘Google’ aesthetics that go well with the company’s other smart home products. Support for Assistant is obviously present and the lamp also appears in the Google Home app like any other light bulb.

The single shared image doesn’t show any power cable but the dLight does come with a USB-C port and even gets OTA updates.

The lamp’s FCC documents also show that it features 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and that it’s manufactured by HCC Teletron (HK) Technology Co., which looks to be a Foxconn subsidiary. Lamp input stands at 24V and the thing is rated 14W. The base also has a QR code slapped on it, possibly for easier setup.

Again, the Google dLight smart lamp has been created for internal purposes alone and will likely never be sold outside of the company’s internal stores. Ben says that it’s part of a greater effort to improve WFH situations and improve video conferencing.
