Color Kinetics and Osram showcase future lighting trends

Travelling Light During October, Color Kinetics and Osram Opto Semiconductors will conduct an LED lighting roadshow in Germany and Switzerland. The tour starts on October 19 in Hamburg and takes in Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich and Stuttgart before ending up in Zurich on November 4. Presentations are in German language only.

See the Osram website for details of the tour schedule.

The roadshow is aimed at lighting designers, architects and luminaire manufacturers and shows just what can be done with LEDs. This includes architectural lighting, accent lighting and effect lighting in both the commercial and domestic spheres.

LEDs have already started a small revolution in the automotive and display sectors and now they are beginning their steadfast march into general lighting. As the range of products grows, and brighter and brighter LEDs be-come available they will be increasingly important as light sources for this sector. High-brightness versions that offer various white tones and every possible colour mixes are paving the way.

Osram Opto Semiconductors is responsible for the product side of the show, while Color Kinetics will present technology and system solutions, creative ideas, and extensive know-how to highlight the enor-mous potential that LEDs have in the general lighting sector. Projects will be presented from both the technical and design points of view, and specialists will be on hand to demonstrate some sophisticated ways in which these light sources can be controlled.
