Philips (OLED Chandelier and OLED Tabletop) presenting four different concepts: standing, wall-mounted, desk-top and ceiling luminaires The concepts are the culmination of years of research that have placed Philips at the cutting edge of solid-state lighting. Addition to our expertise in LEDs, we are now unlocking the great potential of flat, energy-efficient OLEDs," says Rudy Provoost, CEO of Philips Lighting. Our concepts demonstrate a new light ambiance, novel design possibilities and unique interactivity of light and human Gesture."
For homes, Philips is presenting four different concepts: standing, wall-mounted, desk-top and ceiling luminaires. All incorporating glowingly radiant flat OLED light panels, supplemented with LUXEON Power LEDs for the functional lighting part. Each model has different intuitive interactive capabilities The ceiling concept, for example, features a balance of up-light and down-light that can be changed or dimmed to alter the ambience in a room with a gesture of the hand. All of the concepts on show share a sleek, streamlined Design that makes them as decorative as they are functional.
As is the uncleiling an OLED installation for professional segments in large spaces, such as reception areas. As in the case of the consumer concepts, this installation is both functional and highly experiential, featuring a luminescent wall that reacts directly to passers-by, creating Mirrored reflections of their 'shadows' amid the light. Philips invites to "play" with this new technology and experience it as much more than a light only: a softly glowing mirror, an interactive tool, a very aesthetic light source and an inspiration for Further products and applications.
"The global lighting industry is in a state of great transition," continued Rudy Provoost. "Economic and environmental concerns are driving all of us to make the move from incandescent lamps to cleaner, more energy-efficient solutions as quickly as we can. Solid state lighting revolution is happening at the right time. What's particular exciting is that LEDs and OLEDs offer the possibility to create new lighting designs and experiences that weren't achievable in the past. With these new concepts Philips is adding a whole new dimension to Lighting and the way it can enhance people's lives."
