PUBLISHER’S LETTER Embrace The Remote Control Light Switches

rom the initial days of electrical , we have been used to operate Fthe lamps through mechanical switches. We have seen advent of different models in between and the trend of designing switches matching with the interior decoration of the room or office or parlour etc. However, with advancement of technology that trend is changing. Yes, I am talking about the growing popularity of the remote control switches for lighting. Modern men and women want everything to be handy. The upswing phase of popularity of the remote control switches centres around that. The topmost advantage that these switches offer is you need not be near the switchboard to put the light-switch on or off. Even from outside the premises, for example from your car while on the highway, you can switch on/off or dim (LED lights) with the help of any simple device like a cellphone or a tab having Internet connection. Also, looking at it from the safety angle, we find that these switches do not need you to touch the power supply board directly. Thus, there is no risk of electrocution, especially for the children or old people. So far, I have talked about the internal lights, but use of remote control light switches is also increasing in the outdoor areas such as: LED-based street lights, tunnel lights, flood lights and wash lights. Although considering the Indian scenario, the remote control light switches are still not ubiquitous – primarily because of lack of knowledge of their usefulness, they have already stepped in to many hotels and saloons. Also, because of low volume of demand prices of these light switches are little towards higher side, which is another reason behind their low market penetration. However, to catch up with the global trend, we will have to adopt this type of switching system as soon as possible. Because in a power-hungry country like India, this switching technology offers tremendous potential for energy saving. Just think, how many times do you forget to switch off your room light while going out for a night party? Sometimes we purposely keep one light on while going out of home at night. All these habitual wastes of electricity can be prevented with use of remote control light switches. Won’t you go for it? Do send in your comments at [email protected]

Do we not as designers in the modern world have a responsibility to create buildings that people can become proud of, buildings that make the public go WOW as opposed to why did they bother, can we not achieve similar levels of refinement and simple beauty in new structures as we can in ancient monuments? I am an interested observer as I travel the world looking at illuminated exteriors seeing both good and bad, but more often than not bad, especially on newer constructions. I see structures that have not been designed contextually and that do not sit well with neighbouring buildings. When you witness a well thought out external lighting strategy, it is a thing of beauty to be admired from both near and far, such places create local landmarks in a positive respect; though I have also witnessed landmarks that stand out through their awfulness. Dubai is a modern city that I visit very often, as a lighting designer, I am so fed up with lines and dots that I see on the outside of buildings without any context or design narrative. It seems that these same poorly designed structures suffer from the same attention to detail in the procurement of the lighting fixtures as they often have failing luminaires all over their facades.

With the hockey game featuring stars from the EHC Red Bull Munich game taking place in the background, the Munich lighting club. Osram has been the lighting partner of the German ice company unveiled its latest world first to a broader public. hockey champion since 2014.  In 2017, the company will be introducing LED lighting integrated into fabrics. Compared with passive elements such as reflectors and signal colours, active lighting considerably improves the visibility and conspicuousness of safety clothing and sportswear. In the ice hockey game on the Zugspitze, at an altitude of just under 3,000 metres, this technology was exposed to extreme conditions. The modern LEDs from Osram, integrated into the clothing, helmets and puck, showed how they can cope with tough sports and freezing temperatures. During the course of its birthday festivities, Osram has already completed two spectacular lighting projects – the commemorative video projection at the German Patent Office in Berlin and the illumination of the facade of the Westin Excelsior Hotel in Rome, also celebrating its 110th birthday in 2016.

Interior lights are installed inside the plane, exterior lights are mounted on the aircraft while warning lights are mounted on structure or tower. Every light has some important characteristics as per its function. The characteristics and complexities of the lighting systems of a particular aircraft vary in accordance with its size, role and normal flight environment. In the present scenario of aviation, conventional lights also are being replaced by LED lights. Why Led Lighting In Aviation? LED lights have several advantages over the conventional lights. LED lights have multidimensional features. Interior LED Lighting Interior lighting impacts every single passenger with the power to influence their perception of the entire flight. From feeling safe and secure to enjoying the food, better cabin Galley lighting makes everything better.

With its 1000th installation of Ambient Experience solution, Philips has been successfully creating patient-friendly hospital environments globally… Creating A Patient- friendly Environment

ten years, we have installed 1,000 Ambient Experience solutions in radiology departments, emergency departments and treatment rooms in more than 50 countries. We have seen that a purposefully designed patient-centric environment can make a real difference to patients’ experience and state-of-mind,” said Werner Satter, Business Leader Healthcare Experience Solutions at Philips. Ambient Experience solutions feature the use of dynamic light, video and sound to place patients in a calming, reassuring and relaxing environment. By giving patients personalized control of the theme that defines the colour and intensity of the ambient lighting as well as the video and sound in the room, their involvement and engagement in procedures is enhanced. By adopting specialized ‘patient-centric’ design strategies, examination and treatment rooms are de-cluttered so that patients feel less overwhelmed by technologically complex medical equipment and procedures. Philips’ Ambient Experience not only benefits patients.

Rather than being stressed, these patients are visibly much more relaxed during their scans, which makes it better for them and more efficient for our hospital staff. Combined with the unique capabilities of Philips’ IQon Spectral CT imaging compared to conventional CT imaging, I am looking forward to delivering a whole new standard of care for our patients,” said Professor Hoffmann, Chair of Radiology at St. Claraspital, Basel. “We can all relate to the fear and stress that patients may have when they visit a hospital for an imaging procedure or treatment. As a pioneer, we introduced the Ambient Experience concept in 2002 and we have seen a growing global awareness of the importance of the patient experience ever since. In the past
