Welcome to LEDs Magazine’s News & Insights for Aug. 23, 2023. First, I’d like to introduce Hayden Beeson, associate editor for LEDs Magazine and Architectural SSL. Based in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area, Hayden has several years’ experience in freelance writing and working with an industrial media and education provider. Hayden reported details on Innerscene’s Virtual Sun, a digital skylight that delivers an ever-changing blue sky and sunlike effect that can mimic natural daylight cycles with high color accuracy for spaces that lack window views.
Meanwhile, since we recently learned that a 2022 guest column by lighting designer Alana Shepherd has received finalist recognition from the publishing industry, we’ve included a blog highlighting the importance of continued discussion around equity concerns, as well as a column from Francesca Bastianini regarding how to grow lighting community involvement in activism efforts.
Finally, don’t forget that we have an automotive-focused webinar launching tomorrow afternoon that will cover thermal management concerns, their impact on automotive lighting designs, and how to overcome them to enable advanced performance and features.
Please stay in touch about content we publish and to propose contributed articles.
