Established in 1925, the National Palace Museum safeguards treasures like rare ceramics, exquisite paintings, and ancient documents. Its exhibitions, from calligraphy to bronze sculptures, offer a glimpse into Chinese heritage. With smart lighting, the museum illuminates these artifacts with precision.

Museum Smart Lighting: A Case Study in Excellence

To elevate its global prominence, the National Palace Museum required innovativesmart lighting solutions. The A60 Full Spectrum LED Linear Light, paired with Delta’s Bluetooth Intelligent Control, delivers unmatched flexibility. This museum lighting control system ensures even illumination with high CRI lighting (CRI 97) for accurate color rendering and visual comfort.

The A60’s asymmetric distribution provides soft, uniform lighting for cabinets and wall-washing. LIDlight’s adjustable accessories and BLE Dimmer enable precise Bluetooth lighting control, adapting to exhibition themes. Full-spectrum LEDs (2700K-6500K) ensure vibrant, true-to-life colors, preserving the artifacts’ integrity.

Overcoming Lighting Challenges

Illuminating artifacts through glass barriers in confined spaces is challenging. The A60’s low-glare, asymmetrical design ensures clear visibility, while low-blue light LEDs create a comfortable viewing environment. The LuxSeeker node, part of the museum lighting control system, enables real-time monitoring via tablet or computer, optimizing energy-efficient lighting performance.

With the responsibility of safeguarding these priceless artifacts, the challenge arises in illuminating them through glass barriers within limited space. This underscores the pivotal role of the A60, characterized by its distinctive asymmetrical distribution design that ensures a low-glare, even illumination for a clear viewing experience. Prioritizing the faithful reproduction of artwork details, we employ low-blue light full-spectrum LEDs, fostering a comfortable viewing environment.
