Five major trends of commercial lighting in 2018
Osram summed up several major trends in commercial lighting in 2018, let's take a look at the lighting professional players look at the future of what it is.
Human factors lighting
Light affects our lives in many ways, including our health, mood, productivity, attention, sleep cycle, decision making, and more.
With the introduction of intelligent lighting and the Internet of Things, lighting features such as color, intensity and time can be automatically adjusted to meet people's needs. For example, in an article by Digital Lumens, the author states: "At school for children, biosensors track the alertness of students and subtly change the spectrum to automatically raise their focus at any time."
Chad Groshart, IALD (Member of the International Association of Lighting Designers), LEED AP BD + C (LEED Green Building Design and Construction Qualification Personnel) and WELL Faculty / AP (WELL Qualification Officer), he is directly involved with Human Factors Lighting (HCL ). Groshart said: "Human factors lighting is an important trend, people are growing interest in it, more and more widely used, the latest control technology also makes it easier to implement." He said: "WELL building standards has been the HCL trend Behind the catalyst. "
The WELL Building Standard is a performance-based system for measuring, certifying, and monitoring building environment characteristics that affect the well-being of people. It is a third-party certification issued by Green Business Certification Corporation (GBCI), which manages LEED certification and certification processes.
Intelligent Lighting Enables IoT Applications
Lighting everywhere, every fixture can be easily and reliably connected to power. By adding sensors, LED technology and connectivity have changed the way we visualize and interact within our workspace. An intelligent, sensor-filled, connected lighting system will become a data-driven network that can be bound to an automated building management system (BMS).
Forward-looking building owners and facility managers will consider each light spot as a data node and may be early adopters of emerging smart buildings and IoT applications. The connected lighting control systems they now choose for lighting and energy management will be the infrastructure for these applications.
Growing sensor
We are still at a pioneering stage in understanding which IoT applications will launch and which sensor data will be required. In preparing for the unknown infrastructure of a building, some facility managers hedge their bets by mounting a greater number of sensors in the connected lighting management system.
In addition to light sensors and occupancy sensors, forward-thinking facility managers are experimenting with sensors such as relative humidity, particulate matter, and environmental contaminants. The awareness of sensors as "as possible" is increasing.
"It's no surprise that luminaires are considered the ideal platform for sensor deployment," said Groshart. "While nobody knows the exact potential of each type of sensor, there is broad agreement among facilities managers in high-end design projects, especially The potential is reserved because no one wants to be left behind when everything becomes a reality. "
Simplify daylight harvesting
Daylight harvesting is not a new lighting control strategy. Likewise, it is not a day or two for the market to shout loudly to simplify lighting control commissioning. ASHRAE 90.1-2016 Strengthens the daylight-sensitive and top-lighting automatic daylight-sensitive control requirements and adds more lighting requirements, while the appropriate lighting in the LEED certification rating system contains 3 credits.
With the emphasis on ease of installation, the hope is to more easily solve daylight harvesting problems with the new lighting control system, which offers easy setup and commissioning tools. The hope is to bring natural light into space as much as possible, not only in compliance with specifications, but also energy savings more easily.
Daylight harvesting uses a lighting control system to adjust artificial lighting in response to changes in daylight, an automatic lighting control system uses a light sensor to measure the amount of natural light in the space, and to dim or turn off artificial light when there is enough ambient light to achieve consistent Optimum light levels, while reducing energy consumption.
Energy consumption and regulations
Although new energy regulations have been driving digitization of lighting for the past 10 years, we still have to mention it on the 2018 list of lighting trends. In fact, energy consumption continues to affect many lighting design decisions, especially as regulations are updated and become more stringent. Many in the industry expect that the 2019 version of Title 24 will come into effect on January 1, 2020, and facilities managers outside California will follow the update as energy mandates may spread to other states.
Although energy budgets remain key parameters in design, experts say the new regulation should not deter anyone from doing good lighting design. For example, they noted that ASHRAE 90.1 has a trim of 1 watt per square foot above the baseline quota, enabling lighting designers to strike a balance between energy regulations and customer expectations .
