After the price competition and industry integration, the LED lighting industry has matured, and industry players have begun to pay attention to the added value of their products. With the development of technology, the global smart lighting market has entered a stage of rapid development. According to the data, the smart lighting market in 2017 is close to 4.6 billion US dollars, with an annual growth rate of 95%.
In such a rapid development in recent years, where did the opportunities come from? Relevant professionals have summarized the reasons behind it into three points:
First, with the early development and publicity of the market, more users are paying attention to intelligent lighting, and more and more people are willing to try;
Second, the product experience is constantly improving. With the continuous cross-border integration of the industry, more and more IT companies and lighting companies cooperate to build ecological chains and standards, and introduce new technologies such as voice control and sensor control.
Third, the cost is declining, the number of participants is increasing, and the increase in shipments will inevitably lead to a decline in costs.
Regarding the issue of standardization of standards, at the connection level, it is relatively rare for domestically to realize the interoperability of products from different vendors. At present, more is to achieve a unified standard at the cloud interface level, and the products are interoperable under the same ecosystem. The ecosystem is able to bring better user experience and sales growth to the single product, while the single product also promotes the richness and development of the ecosystem, which are mutually reinforcing relationships. At present, some ecosystems have greatly promoted the sales of smart lighting products, such as the ecology of various voice control, which has brought a bright spot for smart lighting.
Not only that, but the development of communication technology has also made smart lighting show a diversified trend. So who is more advantageous in these areas?
Relevant professionals said: "There are many intelligent lighting communication protocols, ZigBee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and other technologies have their own advantages, and there are short boards. See what kind of smart lighting application scenarios are used. For example, in the field of outdoor lighting, LoRa, NB-IoT and other low-power WAN technologies are more suitable; in the home field, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth mesh, and ZigBee are all suitable, how many lights are connected, if there are a large number, you need to use mesh networking. Bluetooth mesh or ZigBee, etc. The commercial lighting field emphasizes stable and reliable large-scale network deployment, and easy installation. Wired protocols such as DALI are more stable and reliable than wireless, but especially in the aftermarket, installation is not as convenient as wireless. So the actual The choice will be based on cost, performance and so on."
From the outside world, intelligent lighting has the advantage of being overwhelming. Compared with traditional manual control lighting, intelligent lighting can achieve the goal of safety, energy saving, comfort and efficiency. In the future, when the labor cost is greatly improved, the intelligent lighting overall solution can effectively reduce the intensity of maintenance work, save labor costs, and save energy. Therefore, intelligent lighting has good development prospects in the fields of home, office, business and public facilities.
With regard to the future development of intelligent lighting, connection technology is the first step of intelligent lighting. When the lights are connected together, wisdom can be applied to achieve intelligent lighting to create value. Artificial intelligence, sensors, etc. are ways to apply intelligence, including big data cloud computing, etc., which use data to create value. At present, more wisdom is needed, whether it is sensors, artificial intelligence, big data, etc., which are still relatively rare in the current application.
Technical level: The main advantages of intelligent lighting system solutions are reflected in the experience brought by energy saving and environmental protection and remote control. The passive infrared sensor in this solution can achieve the purpose of intelligent control by “sensing†to the outside world. When the human body is located in the effective area of ​​the sensor, the sensor can automatically adjust the brightness of the lamp to achieve energy saving and environmental protection effects; the illuminance sensor can be sharp Capture the changes of ambient light, automatically balance the brightness of the lamps, and bring people a comfortable lighting experience; ZigBee wireless technology can connect indoor lamps, sensor nodes and gateways to form a ZigBee network. Users do not have to worry about wiring when deploying lighting systems, making lighting installation projects simple and efficient. By using the wireless communication technology of low-power networking such as ZigBee, the connection with the cloud can make the control operation more convenient and save more power. The user can use the mobile device to perform real-time control like a mobile phone or PAD. Remote control issues.
