Industrial 4 incoming LED lighting intelligent or show the top two trends

With the emergence of the concept of the 4 industry, the traditional thinking of manufacturing is experiencing an unprecedented impact, the integration and upgrading of industrialization and information technology will be the main theme of the future mode of production. As a huge lighting market in the LED industry, in the new historical situation, only to take the road of intelligent LED can go farther and farther. For now, the direction of intelligent LED is divided into two aspects of agricultural intelligence and intelligent optical communications.

Also in the world leading position in the concept of the Internet, the German academic and industrial circles in 2013 in Hannover industrial fair first proposed the "4 industrial research project", the core of this concept is the physical information fusion system (Cyber-PhysicalSystems, CPS), the integration of various digital information, resources, products and people, so as to establish a highly efficient fast and flexible information, products and services of digital production mode. This concept was quickly spread from Germany to Europe, and began to influence the world.

1 the connotation of intelligent LED lighting

The traditional LED first appeared in 1962, beginning LED products only emit low luminosity red light, and now emits light throughout the visible light, infrared and ultraviolet; at the same time use from the lights, the first display panel to display, lighting and decorative lighting. In recent years, with the emergence of the Internet, cloud computing and other new technologies, people are not satisfied with the LED lighting with high brightness, low power consumption, long life, low power of these basic functions and economic benefits, but with LED and advanced networking and cloud computing technology more combination of psychology, from the human body physiology and sociology, consider the individual comfort, light bio safety and improve the learning, living and working conditions of soft indicators and reduce social benefit of air pollution to protect the environment, that is the intelligence of LED.

In the background of the 4 industry, with nearly ten years of traditional LED homogenization low-end serious overcapacity problem, our development and demand for LED products has not only stay in the lighting performance, but to the combination of technology and other industries, in order to obtain LED intelligent light with composite function, and shunt on LED industry capacity. So far, there are two major diversion direction, the first is to break through the field of agricultural lighting, the second is the development of the field of optical communications.

2.LED Intelligent Agriculture

In agriculture, we know that light is one of the most important environmental factors for plant growth and development, and has a direct role in the regulation of photosynthesis and growth and metabolism of plants. Currently known environmental factors, such as relative humidity, temperature, light intensity and light quality have a close impact on plant growth and development. Among these factors, light quality directly affected the growth of plant stem, lateral branch, leaf expansion and pigment deposition. The light quality integration, mainly through the continued strength of the red, blue, and the path of plant hormone signaling has a profound influence on physiological response to trigger plays a role in the growth and development of plants.

Overall, from a long-term point of view, LED has replaced the traditional lighting source. Based on the study of biological technology of intelligent LED lighting system can be widely used in plant or animal; at the same time this intelligent system can also accurately determine the specific plant growth need strength and quality of light; another intelligent system can also analyze the growth conditions of plants under different light pulse effect. It can be predicted that the agricultural intelligent system based on LED will be an important embodiment of "industry 4" in agriculture.

3.LED intelligent optical communication (lifi)

Lifi is considered to be a new optical device in twenty-first Century. The basic idea of designing this kind of equipment is that it can transmit data by LED light. However, the amount of data transmitted by LED light is relatively small. Currently, Lifi is known as an optimized version of Wi-Fi, which has the advantage of being able to reduce costs by wireless communications.

Known as the father of Li-Fi, Professor of University of Edinburgh, HaraldHass (Harald - Haas) believes that the core of Lifi technology is the strength and potential of light-emitting diodes. He also believes that this technology can change our access to the Internet, video, e-mail, etc.. Because of the wide range of social development of data transmission needs, so the application of lifi technology can be extended to those areas of Wifi technology can not be covered, such as medical technology, engines and other various industries. Because lifi is considered to have Internet access service most rapidly, so this technology is likely to replace the current research institutes and companies in the widely used WiFi, and it can be extended to more special field with lifi technology.

4 concluding remarks

Under the influence of the concept of industry 4, LED traditional industry is bound to change the trend of intelligence, and its development direction is bound to be a high degree of integration of industrialization and information technology. Twenty-first Century was known as the "light of the century", and has the plant photosynthesis is the basis of life of all things, by virtue of LED artificial lighting system with high efficiency and low energy consumption, taking into account the information control of the advantages of LED intelligent agriculture will promote the rapid development of agriculture and Biotechnology industries.

On the other hand, in the optical communication industry, the concept of Lifi began to attract more and more attention
