Coopersburg, PA – Lutron Electronics, the leader in architectural lighting control solutions, introduces Athena: a simple, flexible, all-in-one solution that elevates everyday experiences with the magic of light. The debut is Lutron’s most significant commercial system release since April 2018, when we acquired Ketra, maker of the world’s most advanced lighting system. Athena marries best-in-class control, the world’s most advanced LED lighting technology, and simple app-based setup in a solution that is equally optimal for new construction, retrofits, and evolving commercial spaces.
Especially now, when change is constant, Athena is built to meet today’s uncharted design challenges – while delivering flexibility for the future.
“Flexibility and simplicity are paramount priorities for Athena,” said Olivier Perrigueur, Vice President and General Manager Commercial Architectural Business at Lutron. “As designers and business owners navigate the challenges of an evolving future, Athena offers them a solution that supports the human experience, no matter how that may change. And by choosing Lutron, they can be confident we’ll be here for them now and in the future.”
In May 2019, Lutron introduced HXL – a broad approach to human centric lighting – that employs quality light, natural light, connection to the outdoors, and adaptive & personalized control to create spaces focused on the human experience. Now with Athena, achieving HXL is easier than ever by using the app and superior personalization options from Ketra to achieve the right light at the right time.
Give Everyone a Window Seat – Seamlessly Integrate Electric Light, Daylight, and Shades
Using Ketra natural light and smart shading, Athena invites architects and designers to extend natural light deep into the built environment, far beyond the window’s reach. Most people spend their days under static light that doesn’t change. Ketra’s dynamic natural light is preset to shift as the day progresses, creating harmony between interior light and natural daylight – and giving people the feeling they’re in tune with nature.
Such natural light technology also gives designers new ways to imagine and plan the built environment, and presents new options for biophilic design.
Visual and Aesthetic Customization Come Easy
Athena expands possibilities for elegant spaces with beautiful light. Customize lighting designs with warm dimming, tunable white, and full-saturated color. Ketra introduces vibrancy and precision optics, and the simple iOS app enables precision fine-tuning to 1% light level increments.
Customized controls are available to meet the needs of occupants and visitors alike – touchless, responsive options like occupancy and daylight sensors or timeclock control, individual Pico remote controls, or mobile app integrations ensure the right options for each space.
Right-Sized Processor Makes Athena Accessible Across Applications
Athena processors are as good for small architectural spaces like restaurants, museums and boutiques, as they are for open office spaces and corporate headquarters.
Design Without Risk – Simple Apps, Universal Fixture Control and a Full Complement of Control Options
