PREMIUM LIGHTING OPTIONS FOR PREMIUM SPACES

Each luminaire is equipped with a built-in modem that modulates the light at speeds imperceptible to the human eye. The light is detected by a LiFi USB key/dongle plugged into the socket of a laptop or tablet (in the future such technology will be built into laptops and devices). The LiFi USB dongle returns data to the luminaire through an infrared link. With Philips LiFi-enabled luminaires, customers get the double benefit of quality, energy-efficient LED light and a highly secure, stable and robust connection as LiFi has 10,000 times the spectrum of WiFi.

OLED panels produce light across a very thin surface rather than from a point LED source.

Advantages:

• Extremely thin 
• Soft, diffuse light 
• Low glare 
• Architectural appearance 

Useful for decorative and premium design applications.

Premium lighting increasingly uses sophisticated optics rather than simply increasing fixture quantity.

Technologies include:

• Microprismatic diffusers 
• Low-glare reflectors 
• Darklight optics 
• Asymmetric optics 
• Honeycomb/louvre systems 
• Deep recessed sources 

For a lecture hall, UGR control is particularly important.

Advanced occupancy systems can detect people more accurately than conventional PIR sensors.

They can potentially determine:

• Number of occupants 
• Location 
• Movement 
• Occupancy patterns 

This enables highly responsive lighting automation.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows lighting fixtures to receive both power and data through Ethernet cabling.

Potential benefits:

• Centralized control 
• Individual fixture addressing 
• Sensor integration 
• Data collection 
• Easy reconfiguration 

Particularly interesting for smart offices and digitally managed buildings.
