Nanoleaf is expanding beyond the usual wall-mounted light panels and into one of the most cluttered parts of any gaming setup. The company’s new Smart LED Monitor Stand is designed to combine a monitor riser, task light, RGB ambient lighting, accessory storage, and smart home connectivity in a single desk accessory. The Nanoleaf Smart LED Monitor Stand is available for $169.99 USD through Nanoleaf’s website and Amazon.
The Matter-compatible stand features what Nanoleaf calls dual-zone lighting. A front-facing light bar produces up to 550 lumens and a tunable color temperature ranging from 1700K to 6500K. That makes it suitable for everything from focused work and video calls to late-night gaming sessions where you would rather not illuminate the entire room.
The rear of the stand is aimed more directly at the RGB crowd, with 102 individually addressable RGB zones capable of projecting color across a 160-degree wall-washing angle. The front and rear lighting can be controlled independently, allowing users to switch between a more practical workspace and a colorful gaming or entertainment setup.
The stand itself is constructed from 20mm solid plywood with a North American walnut veneer and a hand-sanded finish. It raises a display by four inches, which Nanoleaf says is intended to encourage a more natural viewing position and reduce the usual collection of aches associated with spending all day hunched over a monitor.
It can support displays up to 42 inches long and up to 154 pounds, meaning even larger ultrawide monitors and dual-monitor setups should be within its limits. There are also 23 built-in 1/4″-20 UNC mounting ports for attaching cameras, microphones, ring lights, and other accessories.
The Smart LED Monitor Stand also works with Matter-compatible smart home ecosystems and Nanoleaf’s app. It can sync with other Nanoleaf lighting products using 4D Scene Sync+, while Rhythm Mode and Screen Mirror can react to music and on-screen content.
