Philips Hue took the wraps off several new smart lamps and upgrades, including a portable lamp, a new twist on its physical switch, new indoor downlights, and a smattering of other upgrades. The new Philips Hue Go lamp offers a lot of the same features as the previous generation packed into a new form factor. A wireless charging base lets you grab it and go with minimal fuss. The stem has a grip to help you move it around while a single button cycles through different scenes. The standalone runtime on the lamp is 48 hours. Expect to see this one on store shelves by the end of the summer for $160. The new Philips Hue Tap gives you quick access to four user-determined lighting scenes, and a dial surrounding those buttons gives full dimming control. Like the previous generation, it can be removed from its wall mount and used anywhere around the house. You can snag this one now in either black or white for $50.

Any device sporting a chip and some form of communications protocol can be hacked - that's almost as strong a law as those governing gravity. And sometimes, threats come from where you'd least suspect them. An electronics project by user kingkevin - uploaded on source code repository CuVoodoo git - now aims to help consumers and businesses to protect themselves from an attack vector that's frequently forgotten: a simple HDMI port. Enter the HDMI Firewall. The HDMI firewall is little more than a physical dongle that can be directly connected to the HDMI port you want to secure. It works by blocking all data that's not related to video and audio streaming. One dongle is required per port to be protected, but they can be repurposed across different devices with a bit of work.
