Lighting has evolved over time as an indispensable tool for human life according to the skill levels and the demands of the times. The demand for lighting has changed significantly in a variety of ways from a means of simply lighting the fire in the past flame-light era to a means of creating a pleasant life and beauty for human beings, and to a means of preparing for the coming changes in future human life, as the demand for high efficiency and environment-friendly light is growing in the wake of the depletion of fossil fuels and global warming. Accordingly, there is a growing interest in new convergence lighting technologies as well as in new light sources that can meet this demand.
As energy conservation and environmental issues are emerging as a hot topic around the world, consumers are demanding high-efficiency, eco-friendly products. In the field of lighting, the interest in LED lighting, which is also called green lighting, as well as interest in the alternative lighting for factories is hot. Most of the lighting used currently in the industrial field is low efficiency light such as metal halide lamp (MHL). Public expectations for LED lighting have increased in recent years, but the supply of LED lighting is still slower than expected due to the fact that the product is not reliable enough and the price is too high. Conventional lightings applied to the present industry can lead to a host of issues such as long relighting time, low durability and high defect rate during manufacturing and production process due to troubles associated with replacing lights. It is necessary to improve lighting environment to a human-friendly one in the future in industrial sites such as factories. In the case of LED lighting, securing competitive heat insulation materials and developing optimized heat dissipation design will largely decide the competitive edge in the LED lighting industry. It is necessary, therefore, to develop lighting devices specialized for LED light armed with competitiveness by securing longevity and reliability of LED lighting through application of heat dissipation technology and lighter weight.
In this study, the author proposed 120W LED integrated lighting system that is applied with remote control method to replace metal halide lamp (MHL) which is currently used in the industry. Furthermore, it would be possible to provide a perfect opportunity for Korea to rise as a global leader in the LED lighting industry through an optimal design and soundness evaluation of the LED integrated lighting system that is applied with the remote control method. I hope that this study would be used as a material for success in the LED lighting market, given that related technology has not been developed nor market environment has matured sufficiently yet.
