Intelligent LED lighting systems represent the future of domestic and public illumination. Integrated into smart buildings and focusing on people, Human Centric Lighting is the new paradigm of space design.

Light governs the ticking of our inner clocks.
The alternation of day and night sets the pace of our circadian rhythms and our physiological patterns of sleep/wakefulness.
We are talking of natural light, which can vary in intensity and colour in its dawn-to-dusk daily cycles.

Although it has been overlooked for all too long, light has indeed had an impact on people’s well-being.
It can affect our physical and emotional condition in addition to our vision. Providing adequate, modular illumination in everyday life, any situation and activity, is the task of future lighting systems.

It is the “Human Centric Lighting” model: artificial illumination that is sustainable, smart and beneficial.
For that matter, people’s well-being is, together with energy savings, one of the objectives of sustainable global development.
Considering that we spend 90% of our time at home, at work or at school - i.e., indoors - we can appreciate the importance of this issue in terms of quality of life.

“Human Centric Lighting” is an innovative concept involving creating lighting that emulates natural daylight, which is known to power our bodily functions. This type of lighting enhances human performance and improves comfort, health, and overall well-being.

It's a well-known fact that the most significant impact of light on humans is related to our vision. It enables us to distinguish brightness, shapes, colours, and images and perceive information and contrast.
However, light also affects our biology, impacting our hormones, alertness, attention, and fatigue levels. It even controls our body clock and circadian rhythm.

“Human Centric Lighting” considers all these factors, providing a holistic and application-oriented approach to lighting for humans. This lighting technique balances people's visual, emotional, and biological needs in various lighting scenarios, ensuring optimal benefits to our health and well-being.

LEDification and smart lighting

The technologies already employed in today’s lighting systems will facilitate the development of even more innovative solutions in the future.
These will be modular and more like natural light.
In recent years, after the LEDifcation process - i.e., the systematic replacement of old light bulbs with LEDs - IoT technology is leading the way, with new solutions for more effective control of domestic lighting systems and entire buildings and communities.

We are entering the era of intelligent lighting, integrated into a complex ecosystem of the most diverse innovative functionalities that power the smart home/building/city.
IoT technology will strongly impact the lighting industry, turning the concept of “product” into “service” from the moment lighting devices in a house become part of an integrated platform managing data, functionalities and consumption in a perspective of optimisation and sustainability.

A system whereby the simple remote on-and-off switching of appliances is just the tip of the iceberg.
The new generation “lightbulbs” will be able to monitor the living space and collect temperature and air quality data through integrated sensors.

Moreover, they will also manage maintenance in a predictive and autonomous way, avoiding inconveniences and blackouts.
