Understanding White Color Terminology in Lighting
The terminology that specialists use when describing colors can be confusing to a layperson because much of that terminology uses common words and phrases in a manner that differs from their use in regular conversation. For example, when someone refers to “temperature” in conversation, the listener will have an innate understanding of the concepts and […]
A Glimpse of Next Generation LED’s
Light emitting diodes, or “LEDs”, are rapidly becoming the standard lighting solution for a multitude of commercial and industrial applications. First-generation LED’s were relegated to use as signal lights in electronic devices because of their high cost of production and limited light emitting intensity. As LED technology developed, costs came down as the color and […]
The Advantages of LED Lighting for Colleges and Universities
College and university campuses are like small cities with multiple groups of residents whose interests are not always in alignment. One of the few areas in which those interests will align involves LED lighting for colleges and universities. LEDs provide a safe and energy-efficient environment. They reduce operating costs and satisfy student and faculty demands […]
