ChromaWhite prototype at Ecobuild
PhotonStar LED Group plc (AIM: PSL, "PhotonStar" or "the Group"), the British designer and manufacturer of smart LED lighting solutions, will be displaying its first ChromaWhite smartlamp prototype at the Ecobuild exhibition in London.
This prototype proves that ChromaWhite's colour tuneable technology works within a standard lamp form factor, with full wireless control.
ChromaWhite is the Group's next generation light engine technology, which allows microprocessor controlled colour tuning and superior light quality, at an extremely competitive price-point. The Group raised £1.48m in December 2012 to develop products based on ChromaWhite technology.
PhotonStar will be hosting the 'Evolution of Light' feature at Ecobuild, where visitors will be able to interact with the lighting installations through their smartphones and experience the effects of different types of lighting.
Ecobuild is the world's biggest event for sustainable design, construction and the built environment, attended by Government ministers, industry bodies and corporates. It is running at the ExCel, London from 5-7 March.
James Mckenzie,CEO of PhotonStar LED Group PLC, commented
"This is the first time we have demonstrated a ChromaWhite smartlamp prototype and we are pleased with the progress we have been able to make since our fundraising.
"Ecobuild is an internationally recognised show with strong attendance from representatives across the built environment, and is a great forum to illustrate the potential of our ChromaWhite technology. Our 'Evolution of Light' feature shows the future of lighting, with a focus not just on sustainability but also on the healthier, more productive built environment."
