LG去年推出了全球首款配备曲面显示屏的智能手机LG G Flex,但是该公司显然也在努力发掘曲面OLED技术的其他用途——在今年的德国法兰克福灯具展上,LG即将展示全球首款以曲面OLED面板作为光源的台灯。
这款名为“OLED Table Lamp”的台灯线条简洁流畅、极具现代感,灯身主体色调为大红色。用户可以通过智能手机或平板电脑上的配套应用对它进行遥控,它能自动定义“电影”或“放松”等照明模式,还能由用户手动调节亮度。LG将推出一系列智能照明产品以对抗业界领袖飞利浦的“Hue”系列产品,而这款曲面OLED台灯将成为其中的旗舰,但是LG目前尚未公布关于它何时上市的确切信息。
据科技博客网站Gizmodo报道,LG公司设计的新款台灯将OLED技术应用到了照明领域。
你可能对LG无边曲屏OLED电视十分熟悉,而LG公司将这一技术应用到了一个新领域。在法兰克福的灯光与建筑交易展上,LG公布了一款OLED台灯。它有点丑—好吧,是很丑—但是所采用的技术带来了令人兴奋的影响。
举例来说,这款OLED台灯附带应用程序功能。这意味着你可以用你的iPhone手机或者安卓设备控制台灯,根据你的需求调节灯光。当然,这不是第一台有如此功能的台灯,而且它也不是真正意义上的第一台OLED灯。但是,这是我们第一次看到像LG这样的主流大公司,将他们的热情投入到OLED照明领域里。
更大的可能是,OLED照明领域的前景是非常振奋人心的。拿英国公司LOMOX为例,这家公司致力于开发一种超高效率的OLED墙纸,这种墙纸可以做成成本低廉的薄板,来取代高耗能的白炽灯。重复一下,这些开发都非常有前景—即使现在很丑。现在LG也加入了这一领域,OLED照明看上去已经走向主流。

Is LG"s New OLED Table Lamp Really the Future of Lighting?
You"re probably familiar with LG"s cutting edge curved OLED TVs, but the company is taking the technology in a new direction. At the Light+Building trade show in Frankfurt, LG unveiled an OLED table lamp. It"s a little bit ugly—okay, a lot ugly—but the technology bears some exciting implications.
For one, this OLED table lamp comes with app functionality. This means you can control the lamp with your iPhone or Android device and adjust the lighting based on your needs. It"s not the first lamp with such capabilities, of course, and it"s actually not the first OLED lamp. However, it is the first time we"ve seen a major company like LG throw their hat in the OLED lighting business.
The larger possibilities that OLED lighting offers are exciting as hell. Take, for instance, the British company Lomox who"s been working on a hyper-efficient OLED wallpaper that can be manufactured cheaply in sheets and replace our energy-hogging incandescent lamps. Again, it"s all very promising—even if, for now, it"s pretty ugly. And now that LG"s in the game, OLED lighting looks like it"s moving towards the mainstream. [CNET]
