Unveiled 14 SafeBlue models, 10 flat panel lights, and 4 downlights

LG Electronics is strengthening its attack on the LED lighting market by introducing a new LED smart lighting product that significantly reduces blue light for eye comfort.

LG Electronics unveiled 14 types of 'LG Smart Lighting Safe Blue' suitable for use in commercial and office spaces. There are 10 types of 'LED Smart Flat Panel Lights' and 4 types of 'LED Downlights'.

The new product reduces blue light, which is harmful to eye health, by up to 60% compared to conventional LED lighting by adjusting the wavelength of light. Unlike the existing method of attaching filters to reduce blue light, there is no loss of light efficiency or the inherent color of the lighting.

The 'LED Smart Flat Panel Light' is a product that enhances interior aesthetics with its slim design. It utilizes 'indirect light' technology, which reflects light from a source to indirectly illuminate the surroundings. This results in less glare compared to conventional methods that directly transmit light from the source. Furthermore, it boasts durability for up to 50,000 hours of use and offers over 40% higher energy efficiency compared to fluorescent lights.

LED downlights are lighting specialized for office spaces, such as hallways and offices. They are designed to easily dissipate heat, making them highly durable. It weighs half as much as existing products, and installation is easy as up to 50 lights can be connected to a single power source.

LG Electronics is accelerating its efforts in 'smart lighting,' which combines differentiated LED technology with the Internet of Things (IoT). Smart lighting enables features such as 'motion detection,' which automatically adjusts brightness or turns off lights when there is no movement for a certain period; 'daylight linkage,' which detects external brightness and automatically adjusts brightness according to the time of day; and 'scheduling control,' which turns off unnecessary lights by pre-setting times when no one is indoors, allowing for energy savings of up to 57% compared to conventional lighting.

LG Electronics recently supplied approximately 33,000 lighting fixtures equipped with smart solutions to LG Science Park in Magok-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. It also supplied a large number of smart lights to the Ewha Womans University Library.

LG Electronics plans to actively target the domestic LED lighting market by sequentially introducing smart lighting products for home use. According to the industry, the domestic LED lighting market is estimated to be worth 2 trillion won annually.

Hye-Jung Ryu, Executive Vice President of Smart Solutions Business at LG Electronics’ H&A Business Division, emphasized, “We will lead the domestic smart lighting market by continuously introducing high-performance and high-efficiency solutions based on differentiated technological capabilities.”
