The six stages of the development of domestic and international intelligent lighting standardization

Review: Edison invented the incandescent lamp has more than 100 years, although many countries or regions because of its energy efficiency is too low and the prohibition of the use, but it has changed human "sunrise and sunset farming," way of life, which is a great revolution; after the electronic technology development, and through the original equipment of the incandescent lamp dimming chopper primary intelligent technology, and the concept of continuous development, lighting, smart lighting, emerge in an endless stream of intelligent lighting, lighting system, visible light positioning and new communication etc..

According to Li Zili introduction, the development of intelligent lighting standardization can be divided into six stages:

The first stage, DMX-512 released in early 1990 the American Theatre Association, it is a kind of fast, simple and practical and can be used for intelligent lighting agreement, but due to the use of 7 digital, so its function is limited, and does not require the function of lighting instructions, interchangeability and thus does not have the true meaning of the.

The second phase, 1996 to control technology of electronic ballast for fluorescent lamp is written to the IEC60929 standard, with intelligent lighting in the true sense, but only for fluorescent lamps, 2009 International Electric Committee issued a series of IEC62386 standards including many light source control device and control function, is the intelligent lighting more perfect. After the International Electrotechnical Commission TC34 experts to organize its revision and development, in 2014 has introduced a number of FDIS documents, and the first version is very different. Two control lines need to be distributed in the near future for convenient wireless control.

In the third stage, the power line carrier control is easy to be interfered, the speed is slow, and the function is low.

The fourth stage, the other building smart home can be integrated with other building smart home system, but no uniform set of unified lighting function instruction set, interchangeability can not be taken into account.

The fifth phase, wireless control: Wi-fi, ZigBee, toothblue and other convenient and practical, but there is no uniform set of unified lighting function instruction set, interchangeability can not be taken into account.

The sixth stage, the National Union standards: National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering Research and development and industrial alliances, semiconductor technology evaluation alliance are actively organizing and promoting intelligent lighting research and standardization.
