Sensing Opportunities: Pros and Cons of PIR and Microwave Approaches
Lighting the great outdoors requires a bit more thought now than it did a
couple decades ago. The goal used to be simply packing as many lumens
as possible into a landscape fixture. That was the entire point.
Photocell sensors might have been used to ensure lights didn’t stay on
during daylight hours, but keeping outdoor space fully illuminated –
even when no humans were around – was seen as a key safety measure.

The Bright Future of 3-D Printed Light Fixtures
The concept of 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing,
initially surfaced in the 1980s, thanks largely to the innovative work
of engineer Chuck Hull. Hull invented a process called
'stereolithography', or SLA, a method that allowed for the creation of
3D models layer by layer, literally bringing ideas to life. It was a
revolutionary breakthrough that sparked the beginning of the 3D printing
era.
