Doubt it. Not expecting these to be strong sellers. Most people are just fine with switches and (maybe...) dimmers.

There's an obvious security application, but I'm not sure current products have worked that out yet.

I suppose eventually you'll have light that follows you around and/or responds to voice commands. But you'll need something a bit cleverer than an app with a couple of buttons and sliders for that.
