LED Lighting

 LED lighting has become ubiquitous in modern society, with its use ranging from traffic signals to residential and commercial lighting. However, the history of LED lighting dates back to the early 1900s. In this blog, we will explore the origin and development of LED lighting. Origin of LED Lighting The first discovery of the phenomenon that would lead to LED lighting was made by British scientist H.J. Round in 1907. Round discovered that a crystal of silicon carbide, known as a carborundum, emitted a yellow light when an electric current was passed through it. This phenomenon was later named electroluminescence. In the 1960s, researchers at General Electric developed the first practical LED, which emitted infrared light. In 1972, the first visible LED was developed by Nick Holonyak Jr. at the University of Illinois. This LED emitted red light and marked the beginning of the modern LED era. Development of LED Lighting Over the years, LED technology continued to evolve, with researcher

 LED technology has come a long way since its inception, and it continues to evolve at a rapid pace. In this blog, we'll explore some of the latest research and applications of LED technology. UV LED Technology UV LED technology is becoming increasingly popular in various applications, including water treatment, air purification, and surface disinfection. UV LEDs are highly energy-efficient and provide a safe and effective way to kill bacteria and viruses. Quantum Dot LED Technology Quantum dot LED technology is a new development in the LED industry that uses tiny crystals to produce vibrant colors. Quantum dot LEDs can be used in displays and lighting applications, providing a wider color gamut and improved color accuracy. OLED Technology Organic LED (OLED) technology is another emerging LED technology that has been gaining traction in the market. OLEDs are thin, flexible, and lightweight, making them ideal for various applications, including displays, lighting, and wearables. Li-

LED decorative lights have become increasingly popular in home gardens, providing an enchanting ambiance and adding character to the outdoor space. However, with so many options available, selecting the right LED lights can be overwhelming. In this blog, we'll provide a guide to help you choose the perfect LED decorative lights for your home garden. Consider the Purpose of the Lights The first step in selecting LED decorative lights is to consider their purpose. Will they be used for security, safety, or ambiance? Different lights have different purposes, and selecting the right one for your needs is crucial. For example, pathway lights will enhance safety, while string lights will provide a romantic and inviting atmosphere. Choose the Right Type of LED Light There are various types of LED lights available for decorative purposes, including string lights, rope lights, floodlights, spotlights, and pathway lights. Each type of light has its own unique features and is suitable for dif

Since their introduction, LED lights have revolutionized the lighting industry with their high energy efficiency, longevity, and versatility. In this blog, we'll explore some of the most notable applications and achievements of LED lighting technology. General Lighting One of the most significant applications of LED lighting is in general lighting. LED lights are commonly used in homes, offices, and public spaces like streets and parking lots. Compared to traditional incandescent lights, LED lights have a longer lifespan, consume less energy, and produce less heat. They can also be designed to produce a variety of colors and brightness levels, making them highly versatile. Automotive Lighting LED lighting has also made a big impact on the automotive industry. LED headlights and taillights are becoming increasingly common in cars and trucks due to their bright, long-lasting illumination and energy efficiency. In addition to their functionality, LED lights can also be designed to enh

LED lighting has been at the forefront of lighting technology for years now, and the latest developments and innovations are showing no signs of slowing down. In this blog, we'll take a look at some of the most exciting new advancements in LED lighting technology. One of the most promising developments in LED lighting is the continued improvement in energy efficiency. LEDs are already known for being incredibly energy efficient, but new advancements are making them even more so. By increasing the efficiency of LED chips and optimizing the design of LED fixtures, manufacturers are able to produce lighting solutions that use even less energy than before. This not only benefits the environment, but it can also lead to significant cost savings for businesses and consumers. Another area where LED lighting is advancing is in smart lighting technology. With the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), LED lighting is becoming more connected and more intelligent. Smart lighting systems can be

What do you think is the coolest light? The answer would be smart light. This kind of light should be intelligent enough to be powered up or off via only a set of apps. Today, I'm going to introduce a new lighting equipment, Notti. It is a new type of smart lamp which can emit light of different colors. Notti will show one color when the clock alarms, while shines another if receiving new message. Notti Smart Light Notti smart lamp was designed by Hong Kong design company, Witti Design, which also launched another smart light Dotti recently. Notti function almost the same as Dotti, but its exterior design is more "strange" somehow. Notti look like a strange polygons, or a giant ice crystals. When it's dark, Dotti lights white. It has up to 16 million kinds of different colors for choice. Do not worry excessively high power consumption of such smart light for it only need a power for light up a 3W LED lamp. Smart Notti Notti can be connected through

Recently, a new type of facial mask, LED facial mask, catches the public's attention. As reported, the LED facial mask is no like traditional cosmetics which could be applied to skin directly. Functioning via a mask like fencing mask, the mask helps human skin to generate collagen protein for a good cosmetic effect. It shows a nice performance to relieve sunburn, get rid of freckles, as well as improve skin conditions. Besides, this LED facial mask encourages the form of vitamin D and serotonin which make people feel happy and energetic. LED Facial Mask It is said, LED light can enhance the potential energy of skin cells, which acts directly on the mitochondria, so that every cell has an "energy factories." LED blue light can play a bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effect to improve the surface of the skin, for a better treatment of acne and rosacea. LED red light can promote the growth of skin collagen for a deep level of skin care. LED facial mask work

During the past 2 years, TOYOTA has been developing a new and unique concept car.
