The International Dark-Sky Association (IDA) is pleased to announce new requirements for its Fixture Seal of Approval (FSA) program of dark sky friendly light fixtures. Created nearly a decade ago, the FSA program (http://www.darksky.org/fsa) is regarded by industry leaders as an essential certification for outdoor lighting and continues to evolve as new research and metrics become available.The FSA program encourages lighting manufacturers to design responsible outdoor lighting. IDA-approved light fixtures have undergone an objective, third party assessment to ensure they are fully shielded and have minimal negative impacts on the night environment. The FSA logo assures consumers that they are purchasing environmentally friendly lighting. The new FSA program requirements were designed to provide even greater protection of the night environment.Until now, FSA criteria only required fixtures to be fully shielded and emit light downward. The advent of new lighting technologies, particularly light-emitting diodes (LEDs), has raised concerns about the potential negative effects of blue-rich white light, even from fixtures with proper shielding.Exposure to blue light at night has known negative effects on ecology and is thought to cause certain kinds of chronic disease in humans. It can increase glare, compromising human vision, especially in the aging eye. The blue component of outdoor white LED lighting also increases light pollution more than older lighting technologies.IDA warned of these hazards in its 2010 white paper, Visibility, Environmental, and Astronomical Issues Associated with Blue-Rich White Outdoor Lighting. Since the report was issued, evidence supporting its findings has continued to grow.The FSA programs new standards address these concerns by limiting the amount of blue-rich light in the nighttime environment. FSA approval now requires that products offer a listed correlated color temperature (CCT) configuration of 3,000K or lower. Previously approved products will have one year to comply with the new standard. As new research emerges, IDA will continue to reassess FSA standards and expects to further strengthen the program guidelines in the future.IDA is working to drive the lighting industry toward limiting the amount of blue light at night, said acting IDA Executive Director Scott Kardel. We will be tightening the program requirements even further as time goes on.Since the programs inception, the market for FSA-approved public and industrial lighting has grown exponentially. Manufacturers at industry trade shows display the FSA logo on many of their products. Builders, architects, and city planners who attend these shows can choose from a variety of dark sky-friendly products, including LEDs, induction lighting, and high-pressure sodium fixtures. Residential customers can now easily find FSA-approved lighting at major hardware retailers.IDA has also been instrumental in driving product development for lighting in ecologically sensitive areas. As a result, many of these new technologies are now being introduced to the general marketplace. IDA is actively involved in developing lighting recommendations for sensitive coastal areas where significant populations of endangered sea turtles nest and hatch. In 2015 IDA will launch a new Sea Turtle Friendly product certification to complement the new FSA requirements.Contact:Matt RootIDA Technical Director+1 (520) 293-3198matt@darksky.orgOctober 2014 IDA press release, 2014 Nobel Prize for Physics Draws Attention To Promise And Challenges of Blue Light:http://www.darksky.org/night-sky-conservation/421IDA 2010 white paper, Visibility, Environmental, and Astronomical Issues Associated with Blue-Rich White Outdoor Lighting (PDF):http://www.darksky.org/assets/documents/Reports/IDA-Blue-Rich-Light-White-Paper.pdfSeeing Blue, 5-page summary of the 2010 white paper (PDF):http://www.darksky.org/assets/documents/SeeingBlue.pdf

Rohinni's Twitter statement on what this company is all about is quite simple: We print light. Print light? This Coeur d'Alene, Idaho-based company is introducing its Lightpaper, with a promotional video which is asking the always-engaging "what if" question; in this instance, what if you had the ability to print light? In doing so, it would be "empowering you to create and innovate with light, in ways that were never before possible." Rohinni is introducing the world's thinnest LED lighting, according to the company, with an approach where one can apply it to nearly any surface, in any shape and for any situation.

Popular Science described Lightpaper as "a paper-thin light-emitting square. When a charge is sent through it, it glows like a gleaming portal." Last month, in CDAPress (The Coeur d' Alene Press), Nick Smoot, chief marketing officer, said the best way to describe Lightpaper was that it is "a mix of LEDs and ink. Using a proprietary process, that solution is printed on a substrate." He also stressed in that encounter that its application potential was endless, Smoot said they were thinking about printing lamp shadesthe lamps would not need light bulbs. "Anywhere there is a light, this could replace that." He also said that eventually people will be able to print their own at home. "You will be able to design and print you own light," he said. "Right now we are printing the light, but we are going to be putting that back in the hands of the people."

Applications in mind? While their answer is "endless markets," limited only by the imagination, they give illustrated examples on their website. The technology could be illuminating logos on products, such as mobile phones, installing lighting on your wall, or a wearable wristband flashing the time and message notifications.

"With Lightpaper it's more of a platform of light that we don't even know how it's going to be used," said Smoot in Fast Company. "All we know is that we're trying to unlock the ability to create light."

Tyler Hayes in Fast Company wrote about their mixing ink and tiny LEDs together and printing them out on a conductive layer. "That object is then sandwiched between two other layers and sealed," he said. "The tiny diodes are about the size of a red blood cell, and randomly dispersed on the material. When current runs through the diodes, they light up." Smoot did not identify the companies by name, but said a few companies were already working on Lightpaper implementations, according to Hayes. Fast Company said that Lightpaper may be seen "in the wild" around the middle of next year. Before that, they are to work on a second version of Lightpaper, which Hayes said was likely a few months out. The challenge being worked on is to get specific placement of the diodes, to produce completely even light.

Philips, in discussing light emitting diodes (LEDs), said that "Once relegated to humble indicator lights in electronic devices," LED lights have advanced, enabling a new category of lighting projected to reach $30 billion by 2025. Philips pointed out that the structure of the LED light is completely different than that of the light bulb. "Amazingly, the LED has a simple and strong structure. The beauty of the structure is that it is designed to be versatile, allowing for assembly into many different shapes." Philips added that "Today is an exciting time for those working closely with LED lighting systems, which allow completely new uses of light."

PITTSBURGH, PA (PRWEB) November 29, 2014

"I wanted some solar-powered lights for use in my garden and yard, but I did not like the look of the ones currently available on the market," said an inventor from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. "This inspired me to invent my own versions that provide attractive lighting and ambiance."

He created a prototype for the patent-pending Beverage Lite to illuminate a garden, pathway, yard, etc. The lights create a comfortable environment. Each light features an environmentally friendly design. The invention offers an alternative to traditional outdoor lighting. Additionally, it is designed for ease of use.

The original design was submitted to the Toronto office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers. For more information, write Dept. 13-TOR-9212, InventHelp, 217 Ninth Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, or call (412) 288-1300 ext. 1368.
