VALENCIA, Calif., Nov. 20, 2009 — Wavien, Inc. today announces that continuous advances in its patented Premien LED technology have resulted in the development of an ultra-narrow beam LED MR-16 spot light. This new design produces over 80% increase in output intensity compared to standard technology. The spot light uses Wavien's Premien Recycling Collar(TM), which is a very low-cost component that captures the wasted light in conventional lighting designs, recycles the light, and directs it back into the output beam. Wavien will continue to optimize the system performance using the Recycling Collar and plans to expand the technology into other lighting systems that are compatible with standard lighting fixtures.
"The ability to brightly illuminate an object from a distance with sufficient brightness has been a goal for many lighting designers, especially for specialty light systems in museums, merchandising stores, and other targeted lighting needs, where it is very desirable to hide the light source from customers, clients, and patrons," stated Dr. Kenneth Li, President and CEO of Wavien, Inc., who is also the inventor of the technology. "Wavien's Premien technology allows the introduction of high-performance, low-cost lighting systems to be designed for various lighting environments. Wavien's Premien LED Recycling Collar technology can be used with single or multiple white LED chip packages from Luminus, Osram and other vendors," Dr. Li added.
The MR-16 LED spot light will be demonstrated at the LDI in Orlando from November 20 to November 22, 2009, Booth #336.
