With new hi-tech inventions being introduced, lighting specialists ask whether modern lighting has become too advanced
The inception of a robot that has the ability to change light bulbs has lead online lighting experts BLT Direct to question whether the industry is becoming too progressive, which could lead to the alienation of the public.
The robotic gripper has been designed by researchers at the University of California and has the ability to pick up and manipulate objects without needing to see them.
One of the best modern inventions that the lighting industry has seen is LEDs, which have enabled people to make use of a great lighting source that consumes less electricity and is more environmentally-friendly than the incandescent option.Steven Ellwood, managing director at BLT direct said, “The lighting industry is constantly changing and developing, which is great as it means that there is always more choice for people who want to invest in modern lighting solutions. It’s important that things aren’t taken too far though, as lighting that is used both in the home and at work needs to be practical as well as efficient.
A lot of our lighting solutions also come with a number of advanced features that are relatively hi-tech but are still easy for users to get to grips with, so are great for use around the home in a number of different rooms.”
LED lighting has been on the market for over 10 years and many people are now choosing to make the switch to benefit from reduced bill costs and a longer lamp life. In comparison to incandescent bulbs, LEDs are also safer as they operate at a much lower heat, meaning the risk of burnt fingers and combustion is reduced.
In terms of high-tech lighting solutions, BLT has a number of options that are both innovative and easy to use, making them ideal for home installations.
BLT’s range of bathroom mirrors are LED lights, infrared sensors and come with backlighting to make it easy for people to see what they’re doing when they get ready.
They also stock a wide range of LED light bulbs, perfect for anyone interested in being more efficient and resourceful with their energy usage.
