SBE.330 Week 3 Case Study, Exploring Innovation in Lighting - Graded An A+

Document Content and Description Below

As in the beginning of old era we can see that there was no light. But after a long time the oil lamp innovation took place, which was one of the first innovation in the exploring world of light bulb.... This came from an effective method. Slowly in the developing late eighteen century when the expansion of mining industry led to the experiments with uses for coal gas, which is even one of the alternative source of illumination. One of the pioneers invented the carbon arc lamp from the coal industry. Little later in the middle of the eighteen century the researchers explore the use of new power source and some physical effects. After a huge experiment by Joseph Swann and Moses Farmer invention of first electric light bulb took place. By 1879 two events took place which gave emergence to a new industry. One was public street lightning and second was that patents which was registered for the incandescent filament light bulb. In nineteenth century after a series of improvement innovation the sailing ship effect took place. In the period between 1886 and 1920 when the electric lightning was improving in high pace there was improvement in the design of the bulb and the innovation include the use of gas instead of vacuum in the bulb and the use of tungsten filaments. Today in 1920s after the basic configuration of the product, it is major point that the main players with whom we associate this industry are Philips, General Electric, etc. is established. The light emitting diode(LED) was incremental because it used to consumed 85% less power, it is sixteen time brighter than normal electric lights, it is tiny in size and it is long lasting. These lights were bright and used fewer colors. Today the average household is using this LED device. As such mobile phones, TV sets, etc. due to this invention the methods of old era are discontinuing. It is must that the modern generation will use the modern technology instead of old era oil lamp and all. As the light emitting device saves the electricity so for a common man it is very important. This can reduce his electricity bill due to which this can bring saving in his income. [Show More]
