Panasonic has developed technology for using LED as the light source so that smartphones can read optical ID signals containing various kinds of information. In this mechanism, ID is transmitted from LED light source (digital signage or LED illumination) and corresponding content is then downloaded from the server.  This technology boasts the key advantage of easier detection unlike image reading methods such as QR codes or AR markers. It has the immediate recognition ability when smartphone camera is pointed towards an LED light source. With a higher transmission rate, the Light ID enables decoding of information at a rate surpassing that of smartphone video recording.

Panasonic’s latest Project Lighting Space Player allows users to employ Wi-Fi to schedule a variety of content directly from their laptops or handheld devices. Combined with Panasonic’s reliability and reputation as a leading player in the field of projectors and lighting, this product delivers a multi-faceted lighting solution and a maintenance-free projection easier than ever. Content includes pictures, movies, music, playlists, signage or any combination thereof. The content manager also provides functional control, such as power on and off, allowing for greater energy savings.

 

This revolutionary new product line utilizes solid-state laser illumination technology and easily mounts on traditional lighting track. Since it operates using a laser light source with Panasonic’s Solid State illumination technology, the Space Player can run up to 20,000 hours without a lamp replacement. It uses a fraction of the energy consumed by typical projection systems. Its sealed optics and filter-free design completely eliminate the need for cleaning.

 

l  Smart Downlight

Panasonic will surprise the retail & hospitality players with the latest Smart Downlight. This device has the ability to project on an object and follow its movements.
