Smart home lighting limited cost is expected to heat up in the next two years

In an interview with relevant media, Dr. Xu Chen, deputy director of the Guangdong Provincial Institute of Standardization, said that there are two main concepts of smart lighting: one is to change the light and let light adapt to people through sensing, and the other is to use light as the transmission medium. As an acceptor. Intelligent lighting not only changes the luminous body, but also incorporates various modern technologies such as communication, sensing, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things, and the achievement of light is not merely an effect of light.

However, Xu Chen also expressed his suspicions: “Because of multiple factors such as price, the concept of intelligence is difficult to fully realize in the short term.” The current concept of intelligent lighting is limited to some large-scale enterprises, as well as technical backgrounds such as communication and sensing. enterprise.

According to industry insiders, LEDs determine their future intelligent lighting directions with their light source characteristics. Therefore, a set of LED-based intelligent lighting design and solutions, which is only one of the LED, is currently difficult to enter the ordinary people because of high prices, not to mention the need for a set of expensive control system. Home lighting control system is actually a microcomputer, the cost is not low.

Although intelligent lighting is still difficult to reach ordinary families, it has begun to be widely used in some hotels and buildings. It is reported that as early as the first half of last year, Philips Lighting has joined with Bayer to join the ecological business construction plan. Through cross-domain cooperation, the program provides decision-makers in the construction industry with comprehensive service and material solutions for the construction of public and commercial sustainable buildings. At the same time, OSRAM also acquired Encelium Technologies last year. The company has cutting-edge lighting control software systems for commercial buildings and is a piece that OSRAM aims to become a supplier of LED lighting solutions. According to the reporter's understanding, Tai Teng Lighting in Zhongshan is also trying to apply intelligent lighting in office space.

Ren Yuanhui, honorary director of the China Lighting Institute’s Indoor Lighting Professional Committee and deputy director of the National Lighting Standards Technical Committee, believes that the LED of the intelligent control system will be applied to high-rise buildings such as office buildings and aisle lighting. The concept of “on-demand lighting” plays a dimming role of “people come to light, people go dark” and achieves a good energy-saving effect.

According to industry insiders, from "green lighting" to "green communications" is also an inevitable trend of future lighting development. At the 2010 World Expo, "The House of the Ethereal" has already appeared. A LED light illuminates the desktop. Unlike other lighting, the illuminated table is also full of various kinds of information.

By embedding wireless communication capabilities in LED lighting installations and using semiconductor lighting systems to implement high-speed multimedia digital information transmission, "a lighted place can be used to download information." According to industry insiders, "The practical white LED communication system has application innovation prospects in various fields. It can be used in car number identification systems, rear-end collision prevention systems, and also in mobile phone identification systems, electronic purses, and large-screen information. Download systems, etc., will not produce electromagnetic pollution."

Smart home is a fashion indicator that advocates home security, convenience, comfort, artistry, and environmental protection and energy saving. It includes smart lighting control systems. Since the smart lighting industry entered the Chinese market in the 1990s, it has been slow to develop due to the influence of the market’s consumer awareness, market environment, product prices, and promotion efforts. However, with the improvement of the quality of life, nearly two It gradually heats up.
