Designed by Brian Harms of NSTRMNT, Lightwell is a custom-built 4'x8' light installation for a triple-height living room, made voice-responsive by using the Arduino Alexa skill. The structure comprises 80/20 extrusions and fasteners, with LED strips embedded in the channels of the structure. 74 sheets of laser-cut cardstock make up the undulating light-diffusing wave pattern. 30 LEDs per meter strips were used to give each gap in the cardstock 2 LEDs per structural metal beam, for a total of 6 LEDs per gap. The LEDs are individually addressable and are powered by an Arduino MKR1000 (using a logic level shifter) in conjunction with Arduino Create / IoT Cloud. The design was made in Rhino 7 WIP and Grasshopper.

The Effect Of Coloured Light On The Human Body Artists and interior architects have long understood that colours can affect our feelings, emotions and mood. This is why the rooms in a hospital are often green – green calms and reduces stress. Other colours such as red, orange, yellow, blue, etc., have a different effect on the body. Chromotherapy, a.k.a. colour therapy studies these effects. Chromotherapy or colour therapy is based on the premise that colours and light can be used to correct physical ailments. Depending on the location and nature of the ailment a specific colour may ease it. One of the first scientists to consider the effect of colours was August Pleasonton. In 1876 he published ‘The Influence of the Blue Ray of Sunlight and of the Blue Color of the Sky’ in which he studied how blue can stimulate the growth of plants and cattle. He also mentioned that this colour can help make the human body better. This book introduced chromotherapy into modern medicine. Colour therapy should not be confused with light therapy. In light therapy a person is exposed to a bright white light over a certain time. Light therapy is often used to treat skin diseases (more specifically psoriasis), sleep disorders and certain psychic problems. Colours and their meaning Studies have shown that people are able to distinguish approximately 10 million colours. These colours can be broken down into three primary colours: yellow, red and blue. Usually in chromotherapy, the secondary colours are added, more specifically orange, purple and green. Each of these colours has a certain meaning: Red – The libido booster Red is a warm colour linked to the kidneys, backbone and sense of smell. This colour gives more energy and is ideal for people who are often over-tired. Active people can use red light therapy to combat muscle and joint stiffness. And finally it also boosts sexual desires. Yellow – The depression killer People with a difficult digestion can treat this with yellow light. This colour is associated with the stomach, liver and intestines. People with a depression could also benefit from yellow colour therapy. Blue – The bringer of peace Blue is the counterpart of red. It can be used to lower high blood pressure or calm people down. Blue light can also help in the treatment of migraine. Your throat, ears and mouth are linked to this colour. Green – The strength provider Green is the colour of nature. Green light therapy stimulates the creation of growth hormones and strengthens muscles, bones and other tissues. It can also boost your body’s immune system. Purple – The Nightcap Purple light can help you fall asleep. It also reduces emotional and mental stress. The nervous system and eyes are linked with this secondary colour. Contrary to red light, purple light decreases sexual desires. Orange – The creativity source Does your job demand a lot of creativity? Then orange can help. Orange stimulates the creative thought process and helps you come up with new ideas. This colour is linked to breathing. Breastfeeding women could benefit from orange light because it stimulates the production of breast milk. Coloured lighting cannot only create a certain atmosphere, it also affects our body. Source: dmlights

LED Linear develops, manufactures and distributes globally high quality scalable Linear LED modules for interior and exterior lighting. IP rated from IP00 to IP68. Baltic House, Hamburg Lighting design: list lichtdesign Product: VarioLED™ Flex VENUS Top View IP67 Location: Hamburg Photos: LED Linear™ / Günther Fotodesign Architect Design: GRS Reimer Architekten, Elsmhorn Architect Implementation: Hans-Ulrich Zöllner Architekten BDB, Hamburg The Baltic House in Hamburg's city center is characterized by its clear lines and simple material selection. These lines were also the template for the lighting design, which chose light lines very quickly. The rounded corner and the clear floor plan should be highlighted by linear lighting. Therefore the linear LED light line VarioLED™ Flex VENUS from LED Linear was used. The light line is flexible, IP67 protected against environmental influences and impresses above all with the absolutely point-free light emission surface. This concept caused lively discussions in the committee of the building authority, which were finally ended by the building senator: the concept was approved, but with the requirement to reduce the brightness to the end of the light lines. This brightness curve could be realized with many small luminaires in a lengths of 30 cm. Each luminaire has its own address in the light control system and is controlled separately. The sections at the corner get 100%, towards the ends the light levels become lower - therefore the decent, but striking light course on both building wings develo.

SGM wash lights used for crazy Christmas commercial We know that Christmas is long over. However, this electrifying Swedish commercial still deserves some attention. It is about a solar panel system that can store energy - and to underline this message an over-the-top Christmas light installation was used to underline that you can use electricity with a clean conscience. SGM LED fixtures which are known for their low power consumption and eco-friendliness therefore matched that message perfectly. Lighting Designer, Peter “Tintin” Jörgensen, applied SGM P-5 wash lights outside the building to cover up the facade and several units of their little brother, the P-2, were placed inside to highlight the windows. He explained: “Besides the low power consumption, it was important that the fixtures had a high IP rating as some of them were installed outside. I also needed a great green and red color output to underline the Christmas theme - and I knew that the P-2 and the P-5 were able to deliver just that. I was very satisfied with their performance and their contribution to the final result.” Lighting Designer: Peter “Tintin” Jörgensen Programmer/Operator: Ishai Mika Production: Teaterteknik Supplier: Light Trade Applied products: P-2 P-5 Original: sgmlight

AviLighting reduces energy costs by 50 percent when compared to competitive systems and provides a reliable LED light source for helping to foster the normal growth and development of poultry AHPharma, Inc., a leading manufacturer and designer of services and products for the food animal industry, and i-lighting™, the leading manufacturer of the proprietary LED Lighting Simplified connection technology, have teamed up to introduce a new series of AviLighting™ high-intensity LED systems to improve the cost, energy and operational efficiencies of poultry feeding applications. The new AviLighting product line now includes a series of control pan, feeder, layer and backyard flock water feeding systems operating at 24 volts to increase the intensity of the systems and the ability to consistently deliver biologically-humane LED lighting to poultry, according to animal welfare humane requirements. These products are also available with dimmable solutions and complete lighting solutions (avilighting.com/kits), providing all the components needed to easily install 300 to 600 ft. AviLighting systems operating with two to three feeder lines. “We are dedicated to working with our customers in the poultry industry to continually meet their needs with new, exciting products that improve operational efficiencies as well as bottom lines,” adds Dr. James L. McNaughton, president & CEO of AHPharma. “The new, enhanced intensity of our AviLighting offers the ability to penetrate the skull of poultry with applications installed nine feet above feeder lines and with fewer LED bulbs. As a result, the system not only reduces energy costs by 50 percent when compared to competitive LED lighting systems, but also provides an ultra-reliable LED light source, helping to foster normal growth and hormonal development.” The new AviLighting LED lighting system was co-engineered by i-lighting and AHPharma to meet the commercial live production lighting needs of areas related to bird migration/attraction and the brooding of chickens, turkeys and other poultry. Powered by a 24 Volt DC controller with solar & back-up power compatibility, the AviLighting System can lower energy costs by 86% to 96% when compared to the use of incandescent or cold-cathode lighting and by 50 percent over other ceiling socket-driven LEDs that meet poultry industry lighting requirements. In addition, AviLighting was designed as a dual colored LED Feeder Light that can typically be used as the sole light source or as a supplement to existing ceiling LEDs to attract chicks evenly to feed and watering areas. Due to recent light intensity upgrades, AviLighting can now be installed throughout the entire house in order to attract birds to feed & water areas and simulate increased water and feed consumption. For those houses containing dimmable LEDs, supplemental AviLighting can also be installed to further promote very early brooding light attraction. Other benefits include: Efficiency: up to 96% reduction in energy costs per year Longevity: guaranteed for 5 years (diodes rated at 100,000+ hours) Simplicity: installation is intuitive, simple, and can be completed in a day (MINIMAL WIRING required. The system operates off of low-voltage currents that are sent down the shock cable and auger line to provide wireless energy transfer) Scalability: new units can be placed on the line to immediately emit as much light as necessary Dimmable: wireless remote controls give the operator wireless dimming power for each line of lights Industry standards: Only light source that meets the mandated min consistent 4 fc requirement at feed/water and minimizes “starve-outs of lost birds” Source: prweb

New WE-EF colour changer with showcasing potential The range of WE-EF projectors offers products with well-proven lighting technology that provides the right solution for almost every outdoor architectural lighting application. Two new RGBW area projectors with infinitely variable colour mixing have expanded the range of products in the FLC200 series. The demands for the illumination of buildings and facades, monuments and sculptures - some of which are very specific - call for lighting tools that have the potential to showcase them. For example, a uniformly illuminated open space by day can turn into an atmospherically dense room at night; likewise, the accentuation of details can turn a facade into a decorative element. In addition, outdoor lighting scenarios increasingly make use of the effect of coloured light. With careful planning and use, coloured light can subtly underline the look of architecture and its surroundings at night, dominantly highlight it or even completely change it. With infinitely variable colour mixing, the two new RGBW area floodlights - FLC230-CC LED and FLC240-CC LED - offer interesting creative possibilities. Equipped with a DMX interface they are suited both to temporary, dynamic coloured light applications and to the subtle, continuous use of coloured light. The smaller colour changer FLC230-CC LED has a diameter of 260 mm with a housing height of 180 mm and connected wattage of 42 W. The larger model, FLC240-CC LED, measures 340 mm with a housing height of 197 mm and a connected wattage of 84 W. The projectors are offered with symmetric narrow beam [E], medium beam [M] and wide beam light distribution. Thanks to an optimised lens optic they are very efficient, as any light scattering within the lens is prevented. At the same time, the light is distributed absolutely uniformly with excellent glare control. Lighting effects can be rendered even more precisely with internal accessories such as linear or flood lenses, and honeycomb louvres. Source: weef

Riding A Bike At Night Just Got Easier With This New Device That Prevents Painful Spills For those of you who love riding bicycles, whether in competitions or just for transportation, you might have experienced some difficulties when riding at night. Potholes, road cracks and other road defects can lead to nasty injuries. With the goal of helping cyclists avoid such accidents, a group of Chinese researchers from Sichuan University created an innovative lighting concept especially made for cyclists called "The Lumigrid." 1. The Lumigrid uses an LED light The Lumigrid emits a grid of light toward the ground. The light then changes its form according to its surface. 2. The Lumigrid's light contours with the surface of the road The light also bends so the cyclist will be able to avoid obstacles on the road. 3. The Lumigrid has three modes to choose from The default mode sends out an image of 5.5 x 7.1 inch squares, the high speed mode sends out a 5.5 x 10.2 inch squares and the team mode expands to 11.8 x 4. Unfortunately, the Lumigrid is just still a concept Although the Lumigrid hasn't been fully developed, the device is expected to be available sometime this year. Source: baton
