Presentation Topic: EMN Facilitates the Implementation of Building Lighting
Mr. Zhang introduced the application of EMN technology in digital energy-saving intelligent renovation and upgrading of buildings. He shared the differences between non-digital and digital energy saving, pointing out that digital energy saving achieves precise energy consumption management through data summary interfaces and equipment point map heat maps. The system has small deviations tested by SGS, with most projects achieving an energy saving rate close to 90% and long-term stability. Addressing pain points of traditional systems such as "difficult installation and slow commissioning," he emphasized that EMN technology revolutionizes the implementation experience; for example, a 35,000 square meter project requires only 20 days for installation and 7 hours for commissioning to achieve full digital functionality. In addition, he introduced the system architecture, smart luminaire products and applicable scenarios, and showcased cases such as Singapore's Oxley Bizhub and Longfor Properties. Currently, EMN technology has been implemented in over 2,000 projects, with energy saving rates ranging from 65% to 90%.
Bangwei Technology General Manager Zhang Junjun
Speech Topic: New Generation Smart Lighting: Collaborating to Reshape the Future of Brands and Industry
Mr. Zhang emphasized that Bangwei, with "full-color ambient light" at its core, is driving the Smart lighting 4.0 era—upgrading light from a functional tool to an emotional medium. By simulating natural light rhythms (healthy good light), full Spectrum restoration (comfortable soft light), and a 16-million-color mixing algorithm (ambient colored light), combined with AI-generated scenes and Patent technologies (such as real-time audio-light linkage), it creates an immersive home experience. Relying on the "1+3+N" smart system (hub + multi-interaction + product matrix) and new products like track family light strips and smart speakers, it reshapes the emotional value of spaces, meets personalized needs, empowers brand differentiation with "light recipes," and leads the Industry from technology-driven to a new height of emotional resonance.
Zhiyoufan Sales Director -- Yang Jie
Speech Topic: New Approaches to Healthy Design in Home Lighting
Mr. Yang pointed out that light, as the "second space," reshapes the value of human habitats. Zhiyoufan centers on whole-house intelligence, using AI digital lighting technologies (such as 10,000-level dimming and healthy spectrum design) and multi-dimensional interaction systems to deeply bind light with space and emotion. Drawing on Tadao Ando's "Church of Light" concept, the company launched eight intelligent systems and an artistic product matrix (such as aesthetic panels and knob remote controls), achieving "light control as mood control." This balances precise functionality with aesthetic experience, driving smart homes from technical utility toward emotional resonance, and redefining the humanistic and technological value of space.
