Project Overview

Due to ever increasing energy costs, and the great deal of energy expended at RIT for lighting purposes, this project seeks to use LED lighting technologies to meet the university's lighting demands. A multi-faceted solution for the various lighting applications at RIT will be the end goal of this project and others related to it. This product is designed for superior lighting capabilities, lower energy consumption, easier maintenance and aesthetic appeal.

This particular project targets the T8 light bulb. The T8 is a long cylindrical low wattage, low mercury fluorescent light bulb which is widely used across the RIT campus. It is already quite efficient. This aim of this project is to create a light bulb using multiple LED's to replace the current T8 model.
