The comfortable working environment provides considerable help to a company’s employees in terms of work experience and work efficiency. And good workplace lighting plays an important role in the maintenance of a safe workplace. Good lighting allows employees to read work instructions, safety data, product details and hazard warning signs to ensure compliance with public security standard.
Good lighting in the workplace is essential for optimal task performance, especially with a progressively aging workforce. For example, good lighting is expected to increase productivity in the metal industry. If properly designed, the overall work environment can motivate people working in it.
From the employees’ perspective, poor lighting at work can lead to eye-strain, fatigue, headaches, stress and accidents. It can lead to mistakes at work, poor quality and low productivity. A lot of research evidence that good lighting at the workplace does more effort in terms of improved productivity and a reduction in errors. For example, in the ILO Manual, improving working conditions and productivity in the garment industry, it indicates that improved lighting in some factories resulted in a 10 per cent increase in productivity and a 30 per cent reduction in errors.
In the past, a lack of risk assessment for lighting in work environment safety risk assessment was carried out, but it caused many unnecessary accidents. Workers in a factory sometimes need only enough light that can avoid extremely serious injuries. For example, the stairwells in the workplace are poorly lit, and some of the bulbs are not working but are completely unclear. When employees need to use it, they often can’t find the switch, which adds a lot of unnecessary risks.
At present, most of the light source solutions available in the market are mainly IoT (Internet of Things). However, is has been observed that IoT currently has many problems to be solved, such as unstable transmission, secure encryption, and cannot work without network connection. There’s the need to find the possibility of providing another solution for consumers.
The breakthrough solution
Team Young Corporation from Taiwan provides a different light source solution than IoT. The company focuses on designing its smart power control solutions for different business operations. Team Young believes that in the space of the factory or office, the most common problem is that the power switch cannot be found easily, whether it is the switch of the light, the switch of the air-conditioner, the switch of the curtain, the switch of the iron door and many more with the electronic switch related to equipment products. This often causes workers in such a field to encounter considerable troubles and troubles at work. If the problem of finding a switch is quite troublesome, even if there is even better lighting equipment, and a sufficient number of light source configurations, the goal of reducing the risk of working environment and improving work efficiency cannot be achieved.
Team Young Corporation proposes a solution to the above problems, hoping that all employees can easily control all electronic devices in the field of work, whether in the office or in the factory. The company designed a smart electronic remote-control system that allows you to remotely control wherever you go. In the working space, whether it is electric lights, air-conditioners, curtains, iron shutters, etc. can be remotely controlled by wireless. The system uses RF transmission technology to replace existing Wi-Fi transmission technology. This will change the problem of connecting via wireless network, for example, when there is no Internet connection, to prevent hacker intrusion and secure use, the transmission distance can reach 150 metres, etc., which are not possible in the past RF products.
Team Young products can be used in companies, factories, campuses, shopping centres and homes. The products can be combined with any existing lighting equipment without brand restrictions. Installation and construction are fairly easy and the price is only one-third the cost of the original traditional installation wiring. It will be considerable degree of cost savings for customers and a warranty period of five years for all equipment products. The company anticipates that this new light source solution will give consumers a new and cost-effective alternative.
