Despite a appearing IPv4 apocalypse, a latest lighting complement entrance out of NXP Semiconductors promises an “IP residence for each light bulb.” The GreenChip “smart lighting solution” incorporates NXP chipsets in to both LED as good as compress flourescents to capacitate dimming, lengthened lifespans, discerning begin times, as good as IP connectivity — around IPv4 or IPv6. Proprietary network program allows users to carry out their bulbs from smartphones, PCs, as good as alternative devices, enabling them to fiddle with mood lighting — together with adjusting tone — around a specific IP address. So during slightest when IPv4 doomsday eventually descends someone will have their lighting usually right. Video as good as PR after a break.

NXP’s GreenChip Smart Lighting Solution Opens an Entirely New Dimension in Energy Efficient Lighting
EINDHOVEN, NETHERLANDS–(Marketwire – May 16, 2011) – What if each light tuber had a own singular Internet IP address? The possibilities have been endless: You could monitor, conduct as good as carry out each light tuber from any Internet-enabled device — branch lights upon as good as off individually, dimming or formulating scenes from your smartphone, tablet, Personal Computer or TV — to save appetite as good as physical phenomenon costs. Your “smart lighting” network could have dozens or even hundreds of appliances continuous by a wireless network written for limit appetite savings, communicating report about their environment, about appetite expenditure levels, as good as alerting you to any problems. Today, NXP Semiconductors (NASDAQ: NXPI) is introducing a GreenChip™ intelligent lighting resolution that creates a Internet-enabled, energy-efficient lighting network a being — not usually for businesses, though additionally for consumers perplexing to have a many of appetite assets in a home.
Beginning tomorrow during LIGHTFAIR International, NXP as good as partners TCP as good as GreenWave Reality will be showcasing a consumer-ready, Internet-enabled Smart Lighting network powered by a GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution in a NXP counter (no. 2823) as good as TCP counter (no. 2659).
“The GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution signals a elemental change in a approach you correlate with lights — during home, in a office, even outdoors,” pronounced John Croteau, comparison clamp boss as good as ubiquitous manager, appetite lighting solutions as good as tall opening RF, NXP Semiconductors. “By bringing together wireless IP connectivity with a energy-efficient lighting as good as appetite acclimatisation technologies in a compact, low-cost solution, you have been transforming a approach you design, carry out as good as conduct lights. For particular consumers, Smart Lighting equates to rarely personalized, intelligent lighting environments — lights that spin upon as good as off when as good as where you need them, during a preferred spin of liughtness — whilst saving appetite as good as physical phenomenon costs. Our intelligent lighting resolution additionally brings us a single step closer to a ‘Internet of Things’ — a universe in that each home apparatus can be monitored as good as tranquil around an IP residence — during a really constrained price indicate for consumers.”
GreenChip Smart Lighting Technology
NXP’s GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution reduces a claim wiring to a size, price as good as appetite expenditure to fit in an bland light bulb. It brings together wireless IP connectivity, energy-efficient lighting as good as low standby appetite (down to 50mW) in a compact, low-cost solution, that enables latest ways to carry out lights as good as conduct appetite consumption.
The GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution is permitted in dual versions — GreenChip iCFL for compress fluorescents as good as GreenChip iSSL for LEDs — as good as right away includes:
The GreenChip iCFL or GreenChip iSSL chipsets, that duty as rarely efficient, dimmable drivers for intelligent lamps
An ultra-low-power standby supply controller with 10mW no-load capability; standby appetite is quite vicious in intelligent lighting applications where lamps have been invariably “listening” for a authority from a user and/or network
A 2.4-GHz IEEE 802.15.4 standard-compatible wireless microcontroller with a Tx/Rx stream subsequent 17mA
Low-power, IP-based wireless connectivity enabled by JenNet-IP network covering software
JenNet-IP Network Drives Home as good as Industrial Connectivity
GreenChip-enabled light bulbs will be means to work upon a same wireless sensor networks consumers might be regulating during home for appetite metering, intelligent appliances as good as confidence systems. NXP’s JenNet-IP network covering program provides a ultra-low-power wireless connectivity in a GreenChip intelligent lighting solution. JenNet-IP is a 6LoWPAN mesh-under tree network with low mental recall footprint, privately targeting low-power IEEE 802.15.4-based networking for residential as good as industrial applications. Based upon NXP’s proven JenNet network law stack, JenNet-IP provides a rarely strong self-healing tree network proven during over 500 nodes, ancillary IPv4 as good as IPv6 with over-network upgradability. JenNet-IP is rarely secure, charity 128-bit AES encryption with secure authentication as good as device joining, as good as will be done permitted underneath an Open Source permit in Q4 2011.
Smart Lighting Ecosystem
TCP, a heading manufacturer of CFL as good as LED lamps in North America, has been an early adopter of Smart Lighting technology, as good as is regulating a GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution for both a CFL as good as LED lamps.
“Driving latest ideas for energy-efficient lighting is in a DNA. Through a exclusive record as good as innovations such as a TruStart™ as good as TruDim™ CFLs that set up upon law TCP GreenChip CFL drivers from NXP, we’re means to compare a peculiarity of light as good as user knowledge of an illuminated flare with up to 20,000 hours of life. As a subsequent step, you have been building Internet-enabled CFL as good as LED bulbs permitted to mainstream consumers as good as blurb applications,” pronounced Ellis Yan, CEO, TCP.
GreenWave Reality is introducing a new thing intelligent lighting carry out as good as government resolution formed upon a GreenChip intelligent lighting solution. GreenWave Reality’s IP-based height wirelessly connects GreenChip-enabled bulbs, regulating JenNet-IP software, to yield users with a feature-rich lighting application. The focus can be used stand-alone or as partial GreenWave Reality’s innovative appetite government solution. The GreenWave Reality resolution benefits both consumers as good as blurb business by permitting them to save appetite as good as facilitate their lives by adding lighting Smart Controls.
For instance, consumers can low or spin lights upon as good as off regulating Home, Away, as good as Night Smart Controls from any multiple of inclination such as a PC, smartphone, as good as even a TV. The GreenWave Reality resolution serve simplifies consumers’ lives by fluctuating a lighting Smart Controls to work with sensors but requiring any re-wiring of a home. As an example, a Smart Control can regulate indoor lighting according to outside lighting conditions. Other Smart Controls can automatically spin lights off when no a single is in a room. Similarly, these advancements have been lengthened to blurb as good as liberality business who can revoke ongoing lighting as good as compared upkeep costs with this modernized lighting carry out system.
“Consumers as good as blurb business right away can simply as good as price effectively revoke their appetite expenditure compared with lighting, saving them money, simplifying their lives, as good as creation a certain stroke upon a environment,” pronounced Greg Memo, CEO, GreenWave Reality. “GreenWave Reality — in as well as with a GreenChip intelligent lighting resolution — redefines lighting by upon condition that an modernized carry out as good as government resolution built upon a scalable, IP-based platform.”
