"Smart" LED light that can be controlled via computer network

According to foreign media reports, several major companies in the world have already formulated plans for the production of smart LED bulbs, including Philips. The use of LED bulbs can significantly reduce the cost of use for homes and businesses. If a 10-watt LED bulb is used to replace all 60-watt incandescent lamps in the United States, the electricity savings for a year can be as high as $3.9 billion. The new generation of smart LED light bulbs can also be connected to a local area network to communicate with smartphones or computers.

LED light bulbs have a higher light energy conversion efficiency than conventional incandescent light bulbs because more energy is converted to light energy in the LED rather than being converted to heat more in an incandescent light bulb. For most incandescent lamps, the power per watt can only emit light flux of 5-20 lumens, and fluorescent tubes can emit 40-70 lumens per watt, compared with 20-100 lumens per watt of LED bulbs.

People can use a cell phone or a computer to remotely control the brightness and color of the light bulb. It is even possible to program the light bulb for maximum energy savings, for example by turning it off at a specific time of the day. For people who travel frequently, it is also possible to scare off potential thieves by turning the light on or off.

Another advantage of LED bulbs is that they can easily change the color temperature of the light and emit bright and soft light. It is also possible to arbitrarily change the color of the light by combining different color LED bulbs and adjusting the relative brightness between them. (Compiled: Double Helix)
