The opportunities presented by the increasing rapid adoption of high brightness
LEDs, in all their forms and applications, represents nothing short of a "digital
revolution" for a previously "analog" world. LEDs are having a
substantial disruptive effect on a number of established technologies, and where
there is disruption, there is an intense need for information.
LIGHTimes Online is here
to serve the information needs of the LED industry supply chain, as well as
integrators and non-architectural application solution providers with technology,
product and market news updates for these rapidly evolving devices. Our readership
also includes LED packagers, technology enablers and service companies seeking
the answers to how best to meet their customers' needs.
For
architectural lighting and applications news of interest specifically to lighting
designers, specifiers, and architectural lighting decision makers, along with
luminaire designers, lighting system integrators and lighting subsystem developers,

State Lighting Design.
