The folks at the Edison Report Europe have summarized the presentations at last week’s Strategies in Light Europe event in Munich, including a tidy summary of my presentation “The Paradox of Standardization“:
Brad Koerner (Philips) gave an overview of the present design practices and tools in architectural lighting. He made a plea to provide information on SSL lamps-luminaires and modules in a way that it can be directly imported in the software tools used by lighting designers and architects. He showed an interesting example of so-called on site manufacturing of luminaires using Zhaga compliant SSL modules where the luminaire was basically made at the building site using aluminum extrusion.
