Not All RGBW Is The Same

This presentation goes into the specifics of designing a color changing luminaire, such as LED selection and tradeoffs, optical design, maintaining balance of the different colors (Red, Green, Blue, and White) and what happens behind the scenes.

Knowledge of the lighting industry, basic color science, and basic electronics is recommended for this presentation.

Learning Objectives

• Know the history of color changing LED luminaires in architectural lighting applications
• Understanding the difference between discrete LEDs and quad chips and what the tradeoffs are for each luminaire type, so that specifiers can deliver the best solution for their project.
• Understanding how driving different LEDs affects their output and color consistency, and how best to use different color changing luminaires in your project to get the best result
• Looking to the future of architectural lighting from a manufacturers standpoint, and how luminaire design could change from a standpoint of technological advancements and sustainability
