THE LED GENERATION

摘要

I recently attended an event where a number of the 'traditional' lighting manufacturers were boasting about how long they had been designing luminaires and how this made them a better choice when compared with some of the modern lighting manufacturers. This got me thinking. Does a long history designing lighting products really give a manufacturer an edge? Granted, experience is important, but the younger members of the design team, in our case, also have an equal amount of input into the design of our products. These younger members, who have launched and developed their careers during the LED era, are able to provide a fresh, creative view on new technologies; something which can be difficult for those who have been exposed to the design constraints imposed by older lighting technologies.
