Creating efficient lighting using micro-optics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The 1st generation of LED lights consist of the functional replacement of traditional technologies with LEDs,with little emphasis on the efficiency or the aesthetics. Optrical Limited is challenging this status quo bydeveloping custom, low-cost, micro-optic ‘light management’ solutions to tailor the illumination profile of LEDpanels and tube lights by placing light where it is needed, and enhancing the brightness of the luminaire bydoing so. This approach can also be used to reduce the number of LEDs and the power consumption of thefixture for its life. A 25% improvement in brightness translates to not having to build 3 to 4 fewer power plantsof 500 MW capacity in UK alone!Significant long term business opportunity for us would be in manufacturing and direct sales of such innovativeproducts to OEMs, subcontract manufacturers and parts suppliers, potentially generating huge economicbenefits.
