What does GI stand for?

We are seeing increased demand for LEDs in such applications as general illumination, TV backlight and outdoor display.

For general illumination, the bulbs are covered with translucent globes causing the light to be distributed throughout the room, or covered with shaped shades causing the light to be trained at a particular location.

Applications include general illumination, for which the nanocrystals help provide bright yet very low energy-consuming, long-lasting white light; improving the efficiency of solar cells by using parts of the solar spectrum otherwise wasted as heat; and enabling early cancer diagnoses and real-time monitoring of cancer treatment by distributing modified colloidal nanocrystals for in vivo imaging applications.

the alliance combines GELcore's LED system strengths in the transportation, signage, specialty illumination and general illumination segments with Nichia's extensive phosphor and optoelectronics products, such as LEDs.

KITCHEN: Use recessed or low-voltage fittings, evenly spaced, to give maximum lighting, and fluorescent or incandescent fittings centred for general illumination.

Ambient light, such as the light generated by fluorescent ceiling lamps, provides general illumination, but it can "flatten" a room.

Products include LED task lighting, high performance general illumination light fixtures, and patented plug-and-play lighting systems.

Kitchen Have a central light of at least 150-watts for general illumination.
