Lighting and concept designers: New, bendable LED tube is a technology waiting for an application
Posted in: Uncategorized
The image above doesn’t look like much, but perhaps you can change that with your own renderings. Students and lighting designers looking for a new technology to integrate into their concepts may be interested in LED manufacturer Bivar’s new, flexible Light Pipe System, a bendable LED tube ideal “for outdoor and rugged applications, which require greater brightness and light transfer capacity, sturdy design and more flexibility.”
Flexible light pipes offer a cost-effective, efficient alternative for applications that include field instrumentation, heavy equipment and transportation with difficult designs where the LED light source is positioned far from the viewing surface or is obstructed by other components. These applications are ideally suited for Bivar’s highly efficient, flexible light pipe solutions that are not restricted by component placement.
…”Design engineers love the concept of this product,” said Mike Finn, Bivar’s vice president of sales and marketing. “We are enabling them to place their printed circuit board assembly a significant distance away from the required light output while empowering them to be creative in their designs. With our new series, design engineers are not confined by the limitations of a rigid light pipe solution; they can easily redesign a product and adjust the light source accordingly by simply changing the length to meet the new specifications of their product.”
The technology’s new enough that Bivar doesn’t even yet have mention of it on their website, but you can read about it here.
