Building an LED matrix is a fun project, but it can be a bit of a pain. Usually it starts with hand-soldering individual LEDs and resistors together, then hooking them up to rows and columns so they ...

I’ve had the pleasure of working at multiple startups of varying sizes. One consistent challenge I’ve seen is the pivot from being a sales-led organization to becoming product-led. Many startups ...

Early adopters of LED lighting will remember 50,000 hour or even 100,000 hour lifetime ratings printed on the box. But during a recent trip to the hardware store the longest advertised lifetime I ...

Thanks to their energy savings, long service life, durability and design flexibility they offer, light emitting diodes (LEDs) are rapidly replacing incandescent and fluorescent technologies in both ...

Wood carvers will sometimes use chainsaws to “rough in,” but finishing requires more subtle sculpting tools. In lighting, as with other crafts, no single tool is perfect for everything. Coarse or ...

While Samsung was the world first in introducing Micro-LED to the world, and Hisense is the first in adding a yellow primary ...

The real core of engineering, in addition to technical expertise, is the ability to articulate the inevitable tradeoffs and pros/cons of design alternatives, and then weigh these relative to each ...

When scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) tried to apply their expertise in solar cell technology to build a green LED light from the ground up, they surprisingly centered the ...
