| Electronic walls and ceilings make it easy to change room design The Alliance for Solid-State Illumination Systems and Technologies, an LED industry group organized by the Lighting Research Center at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, unveiled a novel concept for lighting homes and offices. The design integrates light-emitting diode (LED) technology with building materials and systems to create electronic walls and ceilings. The design includes interchangeable, modular panels with integrated LED lighting fixtures that “snap” in and out of an electrical grid. Occupants can change the location of light fixtures or introduce new fixtures on a whim to satisfy their needs or their mood. The interchangeable, modular panels with integrated LED lighting fixtures snap in and out of a modular electrical grid. The panels can be rearranged simply and rapidly and will work in any section of the wall or ceiling. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
