Osram introduce two new Orbeos OLED-lighting panels.
OSRAM is progressing the development of OLED technology one step further towards mass application. Both panels are mirrored and warm-white – one is rectangular, the other one round. The Orbeos product family is already in series production. In this way, OSRAM meets lighting designers' desire for planning certainty. The new shapes increase the creative scope.
Two new formats
The new panels are 1.8 millimetres thin and thus particularly well suited for use as "embedded lights" in furniture, designer luminaires and mirrors. "Embedded light" is used to describe an OLED panel that is e.g. integrated into a mirror in such a way that – when switched off – it is impossible to detect the transition between OLED panel and mirror. The light – infinitely dimmable from 0 to 1,700 candela per square metre – is warm-white, independent of the angle from which the panels are looked at. The rectangular panel has a light-emitting surface of 132 x 48 millimetres. It contains no visible strip conductors, thus creating a seamless mirrored surface with a color rendering index of 85. The round variant is the mirrored version of the first ever Orbeos panel. Both new products can also be switched on or off without time-lag.
Reliable data for mass application
In OLED technology, OSRAM has deliberately opted for series production. Even though the company will continue to develop further prototypes in order to provide designers with the greatest possible creative freedom, there was, however, a need to take the next step in parallel, commented Karsten Heuser, General Manager OLED at OSRAM: "For mass application, in addition to fascinating technology, luminaire and lighting designers require reliability – and this is exactly what the Orbeos product family offers."
