With the best innovation on lighting since the invention of the light bulb,
AGENT and Konica Minolta present OLED LIGHTING CONCEPTS .
Commissioned by KONICA MINOLTA; the AGENT team explored new applications for the OLED lighting technology, and they came up with two concepts: Strip light & Wearable band of light.
Concept 1 – Strip light.
It began as an idea to fuse public seating with street lighting; stretched out, flexible OLED lighting panels bent at various levels to form benches of light, serving as public seating or display surfaces, and this evolved into a bus stop with illuminated timetables and neighborhood maps that are clearly visible even at night.
Forget maps at each junction, tap a marker and follow the strip of light to your destination.
Beyond the bus stop, the strips of light extend along the roadside creating a dynamic system that illuminates the city streets, as needed, day or night.
OLED has a very high-energy efficiency, reducing CO2 emissions and it contains no hazardous substances (such as mercury), making it an environmentally sound, clean form of lighting.
It is the first light source that emits the light from the surface itself. It can provide illumination for large areas as well as for very small ones. It is thin and flexible and can be curved in any way
Concept 2- Wearable band of light.
Cool, wrap-on accessories that glow with light and can be worn around your body, matching your personality.
The bands are lightweight, bendable, slim, and cool, and can be curved any way you like, they can be as thin as a piece of paper or cloth. Patterns of light can be arranged in countless variations to decorate and create any desired mood.
They bands can be combined with other of jewelry and can also display text and graphics.
When people wear the bands they can be easily spotted by drivers at night, this gives the product an extra quality of “functional jewelry”.
