Download Optibin Technology Overview

Optibin - Where consistency begins

Our LED optimization technology begins the color consistency process by grouping (or binning) LEDs by flux as well as center wavelength.

This proprietary binning optimization process uses an advanced bin selection formula that exceeds industry standards for chromaticity. The result? Higher uniformity and consistency of hue and color temperature for all our luminaires.

Chromasync Pro - Gets the light right by optimizing color consistency and saturation

Our advanced output optimization technology takes a major leap forward in color consistency, accuracy, and simplicity.

Download Intellihue technology overview

IntelliHue Pro - The smart way to deliver exceptional white and color light

Our advanced approach to color mixing produces high-quality white light, subtle pastels, and fully saturated colors in the same precisely controllable luminaire. All with unrivaled color accuracy across the entire range of color temperatures.

OptiField - Uniformity never looked this good

Our proprietary optical technology rethinks beam shape to deliver beautiful light with remarkable evenness. With OptiField, our luminaires achieve unparalleled uniformity and eliminate hotspots and banding. The result of a decade of research and development, OptiField’s freeform optic creates a breakthrough rectangular beam that covers large surfaces with full, bright, even light. And OptiField can cover more surface area with fewer luminaires — simplifying installation while lowering energy use.

Chromacore

Intelligent control that reaches further

Chromacore Pro puts precise, intelligent control at the core of our most advanced low-voltage luminaires (24 VDC), building on the precision and reliability of the original Chromacore and pushing it further. Our next-generation proprietary technology delivers individual channel control for advanced color mixing and white light management. Longer leader cable run lengths (up to 400 ft) including branching data lines, faster query speeds, and a higher baud rate give lighting designers the reach, flexibility, and responsiveness to take on larger, more complex installations with confidence.

Chromacore^® Our pioneering, proprietary technology and the original digital interface that made individual channel control possible. Chromacore continues to power C-Splash 2, delivering the precise, reliable control that set the standard.

Chromasic

Our tiny chip makes a big difference

Chromasic^® Our custom-designed and patented microchip is the fast-thinking brain at the core of our intelligent luminaires, integrating power, communications, and control. About the size of a pencil eraser, Chromasic enables precise, pixel-level control of even the most complex lighting project.

Unequalled simplicity, billions of colors, proven reliability, new possibilities — Chromasic delivers it all and more in a single silicon chip.

DIMand

Setting the right mood

DIMand™ our patented technology for smooth dimming makes non-digital dimming eColor and eW LED Luminaires compatible with selected commercially-available ELV-type dimmers. How? By interpreting standard dimming signals and regulating and controlling the power provided by dimming circuits.

KiNET

Networking that leaps over limits

KiNET our proprietary network protocol thinks big, expanding the scale and possibilities of lighting implementations. It goes beyond the limitations of other protocols, such as DMX, to enable larger lighting projects and more sophisticated lighting effects. Scalable and powerful, KiNET enables more luminaires per universe—and gives you more control over those luminaires. Though KiNET is our proprietary protocol, it adheres to Ethernet, DMX, and other industry standards for easy integration. That’s why you’ll find it in more than 50 control systems from other manufacturers.
