Today, <strong data-start=\"749\" data-end=\"782\">Zhaga and the IoT-Ready Alliance<\/strong> announced their collaboration to create a <strong data-start=\"828\" data-end=\"873\">single set of connectivity standards<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"878\" data-end=\"1042\">\ud83d\udc49 The goal is clear: to enable luminaire manufacturers to develop <strong data-start=\"970\" data-end=\"1002\">scalable and IoT-compatible<\/strong> products, thereby avoiding rapid obsolescence.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1044\" data-end=\"1104\">IoT Interfaces: A Challenge for Smart Lighting<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1105\" data-end=\"1314\">All luminaire manufacturers must anticipate the shift toward <strong data-start=\"1177\" data-end=\"1202\">smart lighting<\/strong>. However, many wired and wireless connectivity options are in competition. To meet this challenge:  <\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1535\">\n<li data-start=\"1315\" data-end=\"1414\">\n<p data-start=\"1317\" data-end=\"1414\">the <strong data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1341\">IoT-Ready Alliance<\/strong> was founded two years ago, with the support of Tridonic and Zumtobel,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1415\" data-end=\"1535\">\n<p data-start=\"1417\" data-end=\"1535\">Zhaga, for its part, has standardized the <strong data-start=\"1455\" data-end=\"1517\">mechanical, electrical, optical, and thermal interfaces<\/strong> of luminaires.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1683\"><strong data-start=\"1537\" data-end=\"1546\">Thus<\/strong>, the merger of the two approaches provides a consistent and universal standard, strengthening Zhaga&#8217;s position in the international market.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1685\" data-end=\"1906\">\ud83d\udc49 Concrete example: <strong data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"1730\">Zhaga Book 18<\/strong> defines an interface for adding connectivity modules to outdoor luminaires. <strong data-start=\"1827\" data-end=\"1839\">Book 20<\/strong>, currently in preparation, will cover indoor luminaires. <\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1908\" data-end=\"1978\">LightingEurope: A New President for a Strategic Vision<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1979\" data-end=\"2173\">In

data-start=\"2111\" data-end=\"2128\">Lionel Brunet<\/strong>, CEO of the Syndicat de l\u2019\u00c9clairage in France.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2175\" data-end=\"2281\">He succeeds Peter Hunt for a two-year term. <strong data-start=\"2227\" data-end=\"2238\">Furthermore<\/strong>, he affirmed his commitment to promoting:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2282\" data-end=\"2445\">\n<li data-start=\"2282\" data-end=\"2336\">\n<p data-start=\"2284\" data-end=\"2336\">the <strong data-start=\"2286\" data-end=\"2309\">circular economy<\/strong> applied to lighting,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2337\"

data-start=\"2586\" data-end=\"2658\">The LIA in the UK: A New Luminaire Testing Method<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2659\" data-end=\"2818\">The <strong data-start=\"2662\" data-end=\"2701\">Lighting Industry Association (LIA)<\/strong>, based in the UK, has announced an unprecedented program of <strong data-start=\"2758\" data-end=\"2795\">streamlined photometric testing<\/strong> for luminaires.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2820\" data-end=\"2894\">Traditionally, two options were available to manufacturers:<\/p>\n<ol data-start=\"2895\" data-end=\"3033\">\n<li data-start=\"2895\" data-end=\"2950\">\n<p data-start=\"2898\" data-end=\"2950\">Outsource testing to an accredited laboratory,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2951\" data-end=\"3033\">\n<p data-start=\"2954\" data-end=\"3033\">Or invest in very expensive equipment (goniometers, integrating spheres).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 data-start=\"3035\" data-end=\"3076\">A Simplified and Certified Method<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"3077\" data-end=\"3223\">The new system is based on the <strong data-start=\"3110\" data-end=\"3146\">Viso Systems LabSpion goniometer<\/strong>, which is more affordable and easier to set up than traditional models.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3225\" data-end=\"3241\">\ud83d\udc49 Advantages:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"3242\" data-end=\"3412\">\n<li data-start=\"3242\" data-end=\"3296\">\n<p data-start=\"3244\" data-end=\"3296\">photometric analysis in less than <strong data-start=\"3280\" data-end=\"3293\">2 minutes<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3297\" data-end=\"3363\">\n<p data-start=\"3299\" data-end=\"3363\">validation of results by the LIA&#8217;s internal laboratory,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"3364\" data-end=\"3412\">\n<p data-start=\"3366\"

data-start=\"3414\" data-end=\"3423\">Thus<\/strong>, manufacturers, including those outside the UK, benefit from a <strong data-start=\"3494\" data-end=\"3534\">fast, reliable, and certified
