LED filaments gaining traction at show

Starting off with filament LED bulbs, Epistar showcased its comprehensive range of LED filament products in hopes of bringing to attention the issue of intellectual property, said Anna Chang, Superior Administrator, Marketing Center, Epistar. The company is also in the process of considering to license its LED filaments to other bulb manufacturers this year. Several companies including Forest Lighting and OasisTek showcased LED filament bulbs employing Epistar’s LED filaments at TILS 2016.


In addition, Epistar also showcased its IR LED proximity sensor that is capable of detecting hand movement, and change images on a screen. The related software was in-house developed by Epistar, according to Chang.

More interesting smart lighting designs included Kaori’s dove shaped luminaire that is targeting lighting designers in Taiwan, a touch sensor in the center of the luminaire enables the light to switch to different colors. The light can be tilted to different angles manually.



Responding to the rise of smart lighting products, Meanwell has especially showcased smart lighting solutions it has collaborated with partners to develop, such as IR remote controlled smart LED strip lights and others. The renowned driver company does not design the IC module to go with the smart lighting control, and is still mostly focused on designing drivers meet smart lighting demands.







In short, most LED luminaire designs at this year’s show were focused on retro LED filament bulbs, glare reducing lights and smart lighting products at TILS 2016. Most luminaire manufacturers are becoming more aware to the need to reduce glare and flicker in products, especially those that might be shipping products to regional markets with specific demands. More manufacturers are starting to realize the importance of lighting quality.
