Lighting technology has seen a profound transformation the past decade, as legacy sources transition to LEDs. As a result, designers and manufacturers alike are grappling with the new set of conditions solid-state lighting presents, not to mention the new potentials of “smart” infrastructure that is impacting everything from our city networks to the devices we use in our homes. On the editorial front this means examining all aspects of this new technology paradigm as it pertains to lighting and the Internet of Things. This article represents one of the most pressing issues facing the lighting industry. And while this discussion addressess the complexity of lighting design today, it also illustrates the exciting and unlimited opportunities facing architects, lighting designers and manufacturers working with light.
