Solar-Powered LED Lights in the Hudson River

In much of the United States, light pollution in cities and even the suburbs is so bad that "dark sky tourism" is a rising trend, as Americans seek out the stars their ancestors took for granted. Next month, New Yorkers will get an unusual view of the night sky, without a visit to a dark sky park. 201 LED lights in the Hudson River will "reflect" the stars above New York City that no one can see. The LEDs, which are solar-powered, will be installed on the wood posts at Pier 49. The exhibition, called "Reflecting the Stars," is part of C...

TILS2012:Our Motion-sensing and Energy-saving Lighting

In accordance to global warming, in order to save electricity, lighting sensors have become widely used in areas where there is little passing traffic. Passive infrared (PIR) lighting sensors adopt the human body moving detection principle to control several lights on the same circuit. Also, we can use many PIR lighting sensors to control several lights on many circuits. Thus, detection area, lighting area and illumination can be planned flexibly. However, as for smaller spaces and little demand for lighting, the PIR lighting sensor combined with an illuminant is a convenient d...

TILS2012:The NewBreakthrough of LED Spotlight – TESS MR16 Aiming at Boutique Display Lighting Markets

As the luminous efficiency of LED chip was not high at early stage, it has not been able to achieve indoor lighting requirement therefore could only be applied at lower lumen lighting goods. LED spotlight has gradually replaced the traditional halogen lamp because there is no ultraviolet or infrared ray emitted from LED lighting, and it does not deteriorate on displayed goods. However, as the LED base generates high-temperature heat so most manufacturers can only use aluminum forming shell as heat-dissipation solution. As the result, the current LED spotlights have the alum...
