Innovation beyond what you’ve seen – See the innovative spirit of Philips Lighting from the launch of the second generation of Philips Smart Desk Lamp

After just eight months of preparation, Philips Lighting, a leading global lighting brand, and Xiaomi, a leading Chinese Internet company, have once again joined hands to launch the Philips Smart II smart desk lamp, known as the "Master of Light Environment Optimization". Currently, the product has gone through crowdfunding and is officially on sale online on Xiaomi.com. From the upgrading of this product that has been well received by the market, we can see the inheritance and breakthrough of Philips Lighting in the spirit of innovation.

Efficient innovation in the Internet era

Each product has a certain research and development cycle before it is launched on the market. For table lamps, the cycle from research and development to launch is generally measured in years. Even in the mobile phone industry, which is known for its fast iteration speed, the general update cycle takes nearly 12 months. In comparison, the dynamics and development of the lighting industry are not so radical. Now with the establishment of a leaner and more efficient team, the process has been simplified and efficiency has been significantly improved. The second generation of Philips Smart Desk Lamp released by Philips Lighting this time is only eight months after the first generation was launched. In the early stages of product launch, Philips Lighting used Internet-era subscription models such as crowdfunding to grasp market trends in advance, and made adjustments to its innovative R&D system and market promotion to be faster and closer to the pulse of the market. Such a fast iteration speed and Internet-based operation model can't help but make people admire Philips Lighting, a company with a history of more than 100 years, and leave a deep impression on its strong innovation strength and execution capabilities.

Listen to consumer needs

Looking at the rapidly changing Internet era, the development of technological products is actually not as fast as consumers expect. Many peripheral products that are closely related to our lives have received little attention from innovative developments. The second-generation Philips Smart Desk Lamp launched by Philips Lighting has an insight into consumer needs. After collecting market evaluations of the first-generation product, it made a number of adjustments to meet the usage habits of different groups of people.

From the appearance point of view, the second-generation Zhirui machine is made of aluminum alloy and silicone materials. The full-degree-of-freedom structural design can be bent at multiple angles to ensure that the illuminated area has library-level illumination levels. The simple and modern design also makes it one of the stylish items in modern homes.

Philips Smart Desk Lamp II is also the first in the table lamp field to be equipped with dual light sources. Two sets of different light sources located at the chest and sides can automatically adjust the illumination of the illuminated area according to changes in ambient ambient light. While protecting eyesight, it also provides people with the most comfortable "photosensitive" experience. It is a well-deserved "light environment optimization master". At the same time, the Philips Zhirui second-generation smart desk lamp is also a "smart night light". At night, touching any touch key on the desk lamp panel turns on the backlight and enters low-light mode.

Join forces to cooperate and innovate

The Internet of Things era is an era of integration and innovation. As a leader in intelligent connected lighting, Philips Lighting continues to develop new products while also extending its reach into more different fields and uniting with leading companies in different industries to optimize lighting strategies. In addition to cooperating with world-renowned companies such as Cisco and Vodafone in the field of professional lighting, Philips Lighting also cooperates with Internet giants such as Apple and Amazon in the field of home intelligence. In addition to its extensive alliances around the world, Philips Lighting also cooperates with leading companies in various places. Its continuous cooperation with Xiaomi not only provides users of both parties with a better user experience, but also broadens the connection between smart homes and lighting in the Internet of Things era, and better expands the development of this field.

With the advent of the Internet of Things era, the lighting industry is facing new opportunities and challenges. As the IoT application closest to life and the first to be widely favored, lighting can be said to be the mainstay of smart cities. Philips Lighting joins hands with partners from different industries to bring intelligent connected lighting products, systems and services into people's lives. Starting from lighting, it is starting to set off a change in IoT lifestyle on a global scale. As an industry leader, Philips Lighting has always adhered to the brand concept of innovation, improving people's quality of life, and optimizing modern urban construction. It will use the power of innovation to make light beyond sight.
