Josh.ai announced that it is launching native support for DMX and DALI lighting protocols. The company said that the release expands the modern automation platform’s ecosystem, aiming to empower professional installers with a wide range of solutions to design sophisticated lighting experiences.

The initial launch features support for DMF and Nicolaudie gateways, allowing Josh.ai to seamlessly control a wider range of architectural lighting systems across its intuitive voice, touch and text interfaces.

The integration includes support for DMF’s new enhanced PhaseX gateway, which supports PhaseX downlights and linear fixtures. DMF users will be able to adjust light brightness, tunable white, color temperature and access advanced lighting scenes directly with Josh.ai.

Josh.ai said that its partnership with Nicolaudie brings dynamic lighting control through the company’s Dina DR1, Dina DR2 and Dina SR1 controllers. The company said that support for dimming, color control and lighting effects is available at launch, and color temperature adjustments for compatible fixtures will be introduced in an upcoming Nicolaudie firmware update to further enhance the integration’s flexibility and performance.

Josh.ai said that this expanded support opens up installation possibilities across luxury residential projects for custom installers. It also aims to expand the range of solution options across dedicated media rooms, outdoor entertainment spaces, architectural details and whole-home human-centric lighting.

The company said that the introduction of DMX and DALI support also marks the beginning of an expanding ecosystem of fixture manufacturers joining the Josh.ai platform. Compatibility with these protocols introduces Josh.ai integration with lighting providers including American Lighting, Axion, Colorbeam and more, giving dealers access to an increasingly diverse portfolio of premium lighting solutions.

Josh.ai is set to display its capabilities at CEDIA Expo in September. The company said that this expansion reinforces the company’s commitment to delivering a custom platform that empowers installers with freedom of choice while giving homeowners access to the most advanced lighting experiences available in the luxury smart home.

“The future of the smart home is not about limiting designers and installers to a predefined set of technologies. It is about giving them the freedom to create extraordinary spaces while technology simply brings everything together. Native DMX and DALI support is another step toward that future, expanding what’s possible for our dealers while making every home feel simpler, more intuitive, and more magical for the people who live there,” said Alex Capecelatro, CEO of Josh.ai.
