TCLA秘書長(zhǎng)Mr.Simon den Uijl先生

　　《新世紀(jì)LED》：您認(rèn)為，無線互聯(lián)照明的發(fā)展為L(zhǎng)ED領(lǐng)域帶來了哪些機(jī)會(huì)?

　　Simon: The development of wireless connected lighting will accelerate the market adoption of LED lighting. LED technology brings exciting new functionalities which require innovative control mechanisms. Wireless lighting controls enable users to easily switch, dim, change color, and make group color settings. Customers value the convenience and simplicity of controlling light wherever they are, and the ambiance settings or lifestyle expressions they can create with lighting

　　Simon: 無線互聯(lián)照明的發(fā)展將加速市場(chǎng)對(duì)LED照明的接受。如果加上創(chuàng)新的控制機(jī)制，LED技術(shù)將帶來令人興奮的新功能。無線照明控制系統(tǒng)使用戶能夠輕松切換、調(diào)光、變色，并進(jìn)行顏色組設(shè)置?？蛻艨粗乜煽毓獾谋憬菖c簡(jiǎn)單，無論在哪里、氣氛怎樣或生活方式如何表達(dá)，他們都能夠創(chuàng)造不一樣的光。

　　《新世紀(jì)LED》：關(guān)于LED未來十年的發(fā)展趨勢(shì)，您怎么看?

　　Simon: Well, our expertise lies in the trend of wireless connected lighting. We believe the market for wireless connected lighting will develop rapidly in the upcoming years. According to the market research firm ON World, the global shipments of wireless chipsets for lighting controls will increase from 5.5M in 2012 to 44M in 2017, this is 800% growth in 5 years.

　　In terms of revenue, the market for wireless connected lighting products will be 2.4 billion dollar in 2017, whereby 80% of the revenues are generated in North America and Europe. The residential market is leading the shift toward wireless lighting controls. For the residential lighting applications, we believe the market will converge to the ZigBee Light Link standard. According to ON World, almost 50% of the wireless lighting solutions will be ZigBee products.

　　Simon: 我們的專長(zhǎng)是無線互聯(lián)照明，這也是未來科技發(fā)展的一大趨勢(shì)。我們相信無線互聯(lián)照明的市場(chǎng)將在未來幾年快速發(fā)展。

　　據(jù)市場(chǎng)研究公司“ON World”的調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)顯示，用于照明控制的無線驅(qū)動(dòng)芯片全球出貨量將從2012年的550萬片增加至2017年4400萬片，這5年的成長(zhǎng)率是800%。以收入計(jì)，到2017年，市場(chǎng)對(duì)無線互聯(lián)照明產(chǎn)品需求將達(dá)24億美元，其中80%的需求都來自北美和歐洲。

　　領(lǐng)先這種向無線照明控制方向轉(zhuǎn)變的是家居市場(chǎng)。對(duì)于家居照明應(yīng)用，我們相信市場(chǎng)將會(huì)聚焦到ZigBee Light Link標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。據(jù)“ON World”的數(shù)據(jù)，無線照明解決方案近50%將是兼容ZigBee的產(chǎn)品。

　　《新世紀(jì)LED》：“創(chuàng)新”目前在業(yè)界已經(jīng)成為了一種共識(shí)，您認(rèn)為L(zhǎng)ED企業(yè)該如何進(jìn)行創(chuàng)新?

　　Simon: My point on how to do it, is by differentiating products on features and adhering to market-leading standards in order to create interoperable products. Customers want interoperable products, and this is the only way for the lighting industry to establish a mass market for new innovative products.

　　Simon:我認(rèn)為首先是要做出差異化的產(chǎn)品功能，并堅(jiān)持依照市場(chǎng)主導(dǎo)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來創(chuàng)造具有可互操作性的產(chǎn)品。消費(fèi)者希望用可互操作的產(chǎn)品，這是照明行業(yè)為創(chuàng)新產(chǎn)品開辟?gòu)V泛市場(chǎng)的唯一途徑。

　　《新世紀(jì)LED》：您是如何看待智能照明對(duì)LED產(chǎn)業(yè)的影響?您認(rèn)為L(zhǎng)ED企業(yè)該如何為智能照明的到來作準(zhǔn)備?

　　Simon: Smart Lighting is an interesting new field. We notice that many manufacturers are incorporating wireless controls and sensors into their products, which enables their products to offer features that go beyond illumination and offer new value added services and solutions. We believe this will unlock new revenue streams for LED businesses in fixtures, bulbs, controls, drivers and modules.

　　My suggestion for LED enterprises is to differentiate on features and adhere to market-leading standards in order to create interoperable products. This especially holds for wireless lighting connectivity.

　　Simon: 智能照明是一個(gè)非常有趣的新領(lǐng)域。我們看到很多廠商都將無線控制器和傳感器添加到他們產(chǎn)品中，這使他們的產(chǎn)品的功能遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不止于照明，為客戶提供更多附加的服務(wù)和解決方案。我們相信這將為照明裝置、燈泡、驅(qū)動(dòng)控制和模組等領(lǐng)域的LED企業(yè)開放新的收入來源。

　　我的建議仍然是：LED企業(yè)要做出差異化的產(chǎn)品功能，并堅(jiān)持依照市場(chǎng)主導(dǎo)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來創(chuàng)造具有可互操作性的產(chǎn)品，這對(duì)無線照明的互通性尤為重要。

　　【關(guān)于互聯(lián)照明聯(lián)盟(TCLA)】

　　致力于推動(dòng)在全球范圍內(nèi)采納和提升可互用的無線照明解決方案。通過與開放標(biāo)準(zhǔn)組織及規(guī)則制定者交流，鼓勵(lì)開發(fā)穩(wěn)固的無線照明控制生態(tài)系統(tǒng)，來使得無線照明產(chǎn)品及解決方案間實(shí)現(xiàn)互用，并易于操作。
