Ahead of the show, we take a snapshot of different views on LED Lighting for 2012.
What is in store for the future of LED / SSL lighting?
“LEDs will range on the low 250
Lumens per Watt to the highly anticipated 300 lumens per watt. Colour binning will not only be expected but common without a premium and longer lifetimes. Expansion of the technology (LED and
”I foresee the future to be much brighter at a lower cost, and we will see a refinement of the light fixture and source. OLED will make bigger strides and we’ll also see a lowering of base cost. It won’t be an either-or proposition, just complementary technologies.” - James Highgate, Director of LED Technology
related) will take LEDs and lighting to places and people that have never seen the light - except during the day. Since LEDs consume significantly less energy, they can be operated with renewable energy sources that are presently less efficient (solar, wind, tidal). Therefore, it's safe to assume that LED and related technology will continue to evolve and be a catalyst for more investment, development and adoption of these other comparable and synergistic technologies.” - Terrence Walsh, President of Tempo Industries
Quality Lighting – You
know it when you see it, but how do you quantify it?
“This is particularly true when it comes to describing the quality of light generated from an LED lighting fixture. LED technology is rapidly evolving and many LED fixture
manufacturers in the marketplace make unsubstantiated claims on the colour quality, lumens, efficacy and durability of their
products. For the commercial buyer of large lighting installations, who has been disappointed by inferior LED products, or the consumer who is hesitant to purchase fixtures because they are uncertain of the product quality, Cree is objectively helping discern quality LED luminaires for the Solid State Lighting industry.” - Richie Richards, Manager Applications Engineering, Cree Inc.
