The global smart lighting market is predicted to reach USD 18.03 billion in 2024 and USD 46.76 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 21% during the forecast period.
Smart lighting is an evolved version of traditional lighting; it is a design that is completely automated to integrate settings in lighting for controlled and energy-saving lighting; smart lighting adjusts itself based on the occupancy number and natural light availability. Smart lighting enables control of lighting, heating, cooling, and other appliances, the ability to reduce human-made brightness by utilizing light from natural resources like the sun; it allows turning on and off effect according to the presence of people in the room, which eventually saves energy.
Smart lighting can be connected to networks by assigning an IP address to light bulbs to achieve controllability in adjusting brightness. An alternative method is designing Zigbee or Bluetooth low-energy mesh networks by integrating smart light bulbs.
A smart lighting system can potentially save up to 32% of energy compared to traditional lighting systems by integrating personal controls and occupancy sensors. The major components of the sensor are an electronic control unit, motion detector, timer, and a controllable relay. Different sensors are used based on the required type of smart lighting application, but there are three major types: ultrasonic, infrared, and hybrid.
LED lighting devices' popularity has contributed to the smart lighting market's expansion. The worldwide market is driven by a growing demand for smart street lighting solutions. Other factors, including the development of new wireless technology and the growing need for energy efficiency, have also contributed to market growth.
However, compared to conventional lighting alternatives, the vast cost of smart lighting solutions is a major constraint on the market's growth. In addition, security issues related to the use of wired lighting and intelligent lighting systems will also impede market growth.
Gradually, demand for smart lighting applications is increasing due to growing awareness among people regarding environmental concerns, level of comfort, and intelligent way of living, leading to a rising number of investors. With investments in research and development, growing ecological and energy-saving concerns, an increasing number of construction and infrastructure development projects, and technological advancements in photonics, the smart lighting market is supposed to witness lucrative growth opportunities over the forecast period.
