Philips Hue is a line of color-changing LED lamps and white bulbs which can be controlled wirelessly. The Philips Hue line of bulbs was the first smart bulb of its kind on the market. [ 3 ] The lamps are currently created and manufactured by Signify N.V. , formerly the Philips Lighting division of Royal Philips N.V. [ 1 ] [ 4 ]
Lighting control systems serve to provide the right amount of light where and when it is needed. [1] Lighting control systems are employed to maximize the energy savings from the lighting system, satisfy building codes, or comply with green building and energy conservation programs.
The most common way for LEDs (and diode lasers) to fail is the gradual lowering of light output and loss of efficiency. Sudden failures, however rare, can occur as well. Early red LEDs were notable for their short lifetime.
It is from a printed document from Philips dated December 1992 that is unfortunately not available in electronic format (e.g., PDF), nor is an updated version available. This information is provided so that companies that wish to use the RC-5 protocol can use it properly, and avoid conflicts with other equipment that may or may not be using the ...

Philips was recalling some models of the Panorama 1.0T HFO device in the U.S. due to risk of explosion during a "quench procedure" caused by excessive buildup of helium gas.
The color temperature scale describes only the color of light emitted by a light source, which may actually be at a different (and often much lower) temperature. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Color temperature has applications in lighting , [ 3 ] photography , [ 4 ] videography , [ 5 ] publishing , [ 6 ] manufacturing , [ 7 ] astrophysics , [ 8 ] and other fields.
Researchers use daylight as the benchmark to which to compare color rendering of electric lights. In 1948, daylight was described as the ideal source of illumination for good color rendering because "it (daylight) displays (1) a great variety of colors, (2) makes it easy to distinguish slight shades of color, and (3) the colors of objects around us obviously look natural".
