UK-based LED maker Plessey's new Orion beam forming module has been shortlisted in two categories (Manufacturer of the Year and Enabling technology of the Year) in the 2016 Lux Awards, which celebrate and reward creativity and sustainability in lighting.
Plessey will be showcasing the first standardized product using its Stellar Optic Technology at this year's LuxLive event in London, UK (23-24 November). As a slim-line module to be used in directional light, it is said that the Orion can remove many of the restraints typically found in COB (chip-on-board)-type modules.
Winners of the Lux Awards will be announced at the award ceremony on 24 November at The InterContinental London - The O2, following Europe's biggest annual lighting trade show LuxLive. Plessey will be exhibiting for its third year running and will demonstrate lighting solutions designed around its MaGIC (Manufactured on GaN-on-Si I/C) LED technology for the solid-state lighting market.
"We are not following traditional trends, we are transforming the way in which LEDs are used in the lighting market rather than mirroring what others have done before," reckons product marketing director Neil Harper.
Plessey will be exhibiting at LuxLive and will hold product demonstrations presented by technical and design experts at stand M8, providing an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of its latest products and solutions for the commercial, industrial, consumer and wearable lighting segments.
