Smart technology makes its way into lighting
According to VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, the lighting systems of
the future could be multi-purpose devices not dissimilar to smart phones. In
the future, lighting will not just allow us to see but could also be used to
survey surroundings, transmit information, reflect moods and make our lives
more comfortable. Smart lighting could also save as much as 80 per cent of
energy compared to traditional lighting solutions. As more applications become
available, the smart lighting industry will also be revolutionised. In
addition to lighting, businesses could soon begin to offer their customers
smart applications and comprehensive service concepts.
