Voice activated lighting apparatus, methods and systems are described. In an embodiment, a voice activated lighting apparatus includes a housing that encloses a WiFi module operably connected to a multipoint control unit (MCU), at least one microphone, at least one speaker component, and at least one wireless communication module. Also included is a lighting component operably connected to the MCU which includes at least a first group of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a second group of LEDs that are separately controllable by the MCU. In some implementations, the first group of LEDs are controllable via voice commands of a user to provide illumination, and the second group of LEDs are controllable via voice commands of the user to provide at least one indication.
