Leading expert from major regional LED lighting components distributor will give keynote address at India's biggest LED lighting exhibition
LED technology has already spawned an array of clean, energy efficient applications. Now, India's leading LED lighting exhibition, LED Expo 2010, will hear about the next frontier of medical, industrial and scientific applications of the technology from one of the experts in the lighting industry. Cary Eskow, director of the Avnet Lightspeed program within Avnet Electronics marketing, is to give a keynote address at the event.
Along with the keynote speech, Avnet Electronics Marketing will exhibit at this event, which takes place in New Delhi on 17 – 19 December 2010. It will also showcase a number of state-of-the-art innovative products from Avnet, from a graphite sheet with excellent thermal conducting properties specially designed for LED lighting applications, to dimmable high performance LED drivers, a range of LEDs, specialized power supplies and innovative LED cooling systems.
"In a country the size of India, any opportunity to get key solutions developers and providers together to share knowledge and ideas is very valuable," said Cary Eskow. "LED lighting technology has made great strides in recent years, and now has a more sophisticated array of applications in production than many would have believed possible a few years ago. Avnet is at the forefront of that, and we look forward to participating in this major event."
High-brightness LEDs have revolutionized many lighting products, but of course LEDs are not restricted to white light. New groundbreaking developments in high-power infrared and ultraviolet LEDs are enabling diverse applications ranging from medical diagnostic imaging, defense and surveillance, to high-speed industrial curing of inks and coatings. Furthermore, recent findings on human vision and photobiology have the potential to unleash a new wave of LED-powered products which can improve the quality of life. Mr. Eskow will discuss many of these concepts and their associated design issues.
Some of the Avnet Lightspeed products that will be on display at the event include:
