OLED ceiling lamp shows commercial potential

Organic LED specialist Universal Display Corporation (UDC) and lighting system partner Armstrong World Industries have demonstrated a high-efficacy panel that meets the requirements for niche lighting applications.

The ceiling-mounted system, where each luminaire consists of four 15 cm x 15 cm white OLED lamps that snap into Armstrong’s modular structure, has been developed under a $1.9 million US Department of Energy (DOE) program, and could become a commercial product within two years.
