HERE COMES THE SUN

 

Every day millions of lights are turn on switch it help us to do our life.

We can see innovative buildings, but what it really makes interesting a building is the light.

 

  We need a new system of light where it can be possible to exploit solar energy and this one can be sustainable in constructions, reducing pollution and the excessive cost in electric energy.
 
This project propose a new concept in light system based on the exploit solar, energy which is divided in two system one of them catch solar light while the other one catch solar energy, the first one is a day system switch catch solar light with the help of day lighting that drive the ray of light thru a bunch of optical fiber that distribute to every floor with a connection of optical fiber and optical spheres takes the light to a piece of plafond luminous, one of the advantages is the solar light natural white without elevating temperature and without it consumes energy.

 

The second system enters function when the solar light is no longer sufficient, this load during the day with photovoltaic cells, as by means of a typical wiring it is distributed plafonds luminous and is projected by means of LEDS, which are controlled by digital systems driven by PDA (personal digitalis assistant).

The advantage is that the temperature does not rise, under power consumption since the LEDS use very little electricity and its life utility is very extensive, with the use of the PDA the illumination is controlled what areas are ignited and as according to the necessities in real time and the electricity it is not even consumed less.


 

Every day millions of lights are turned on to help us make our lives.

 

We can see innovative buildings, but what really makes a building interesting is the light.

 

We need a new lighting system where it is possible to take advantage of solar energy and it can develop sustainable constructions, reduce pollution and the excessive cost of electricity. This project proposes a new concept in lighting systems, it is divided into two systems, one of them traps sunlight and projects it inside, while the other stores solar energy.

 

The first captures the daylight and conducts the light beam through a bunch of fiber optics that distributes to each floor taking the light to a piece of luminous ceiling, one of the advantages is the natural white of sunlight without elevating the temperature and that it does not consume energy.

 

The second system comes into operation when sunlight is not enough, it is charged during the day with photovoltaic cells, and through typical wiring it is distributed to luminous ceilings where it is projected by means of LEDS, which are controlled by digital systems. driven by PDA (personal digital assistant). The advantage is that the temperature does not rise and the energy consumption decreases since the LEDs use very little electricity and their useful life is very long, with the use of the PDA the lighting is controlled in which areas they are on and according to needs in real time, thus also lowering energy consumption.
