New era of intelligent LED lighting

Smart home is now a promotion to improve the safety, convenience, comfort, artistry, and environmental protection and energy efficiency of the living environment of the fashion indicators, including intelligent lighting control system. Intelligent lighting industry since the last century since 90s to enter the China market, the impact of market consumer awareness, market environment, product price promotion and other, has been in a slow development of the situation, but with the improvement of the quality of life for nearly two years, gradually take the heat.

There are two main concepts of intelligent lighting: first, through the sensor to change the light, so that the light to adapt to people; the two is to light as the transmission medium, as an acceptable body. Intelligent lighting is not only to change the luminous body, but the communication, sensing, cloud computing, networking and other modern technologies into which the light is not just the effect of light.

LED products are used in lighting environment with a unique advantage Home Furnishing lighting is to create a comfortable and energy saving through intelligent control, imagine a light switch in your home, bright and dark color or can be controlled arbitrarily by the intelligent mobile phone, is not quite worth the wait? "LED with its light source characteristics determine its future direction of intelligent lighting. Xu Chen, deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Institute of standardization, said Dr. LED, 3-5 years later, when the LED light efficiency reached the limit, the energy saving effect is no longer the final appeal of the interests of the lighting point. The future of LED lighting competition is reflected in the demand for more intelligent.

Chinese lighting indoor lighting Association honorary director of Specialized Committee, deputy director of the national lighting standards technical committee Ren Yuan will also believe that intelligent LED control system applied to office buildings and other high-rise buildings and corridor lighting, will give full play to the advantage of energy saving LED, realize the "on-demand lighting" concept, to play "people go to lights, dimmer lights", to achieve a good energy saving effect.

It is reported that a number of internationally renowned lighting companies have expanded beyond the field of lighting, take a diversified route. As early as the first half of 2011, PHILPS lighting has been in collaboration with Bayer in the construction of public and commercial sustainable building, providing a comprehensive service and material solutions for the construction industry decision-makers. At the same time, OSRAM also acquired last year, a sophisticated commercial building lighting control software system EncELium technology company, which is aimed at OSRAM LED lighting solutions provider a pawn.

Lighting startups Net LED Co. has developed a system that allows users to control LED lighting devices through smart phones, personal computers, tablet. The report notes that the system is expected to be able to create 50% of the electricity efficiency, is expected to attract office, store and factory procurement.

Marvell also entered the LED industry development driver chips, as part of the layout of smart home. Imagine running on the mobile phone, tablet computer, Kinoma software, through the wireless gateway Marvell and transmits the signal to the switch and debugging of intelligent LED, and LED in the sensor to collect feedback information to the terminal, this is a typical intelligent Home Furnishing platform.

Jinan University Institute of Technology Professor Chen Changying said, from the green lighting to green communication is the inevitable trend of future lighting development. In the design of the wireless communication capabilities can be embedded in the LED lighting installation, by the use of semiconductor lighting system to implement high-speed multimedia digital information transmission, you can achieve a place where there is light to download information".

At present, the domestic lighting enterprises have begun in the layout of sensors, communications, multimedia and other intelligent lighting route. Institute of semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences, the use of LED optical communication smart home system, lighting, intelligent communications, intelligent control of the organic integration of the three. "Semiconductor smart home system can be used as a light source for optical wireless communication through the semiconductor LED lamp. Institute of semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences, the relevant person in charge told reporters.

Currently in the intelligent LED lighting, LED street lamp application has been one step ahead. An upgraded version of the LED street lamp of Shenzhen spark Optoelectronics Technology also uses a new type of intelligent driving power supply, the introduction of a central control system to realize remote monitoring of lamps, lamp brightness can be adjusted in real time (0-100%), by setting the LED lamps, the LED lamps in the busy period to maintain strong illumination, start automatic dimming in the middle of the night when the car is little, the LED lights keep low illumination lighting. Overall, the main advantages of intelligent control LED lamp is greatly reduce the consumption; KingSun has sensor combined with LED lights, the use of mobile phone can directly control the lighting.

It is very important for the lighting manufacturers to differentiate the products. When the energy consumption and the labor cost are the main problems to be considered in the design, the large lighting equipments need to be intelligent". Although the intelligent lamp control field has not formed the scale of the consumer market, but most of the intelligent lighting manufacturers also tried to guide consumers in the construction of the channel has also been exploring a model for the industry, close to the actual needs of the product is increasing, product function and stability have made considerable progress, the future of intelligent control system to boost the application of LED, LED will open a new era of products.
