It boasts an intelligent lighting management system, and features excellent expandability and compatibility to allow for sensor integration, meeting personalized lighting needs and promoting sustainable development. The product can integrate into the future urban landscape with a more forward looking approach.
Inspiration
Thanks to its flat and square modern design, SB20 is harmonious with any environment.

It saves time and labor costs, enhances lighting performance, and minimizes energy waste, providing a more efficient and environmentally friendly lighting solution for cities.
Challenge
The challenge was how to achieve easy maintenance. SB20 enables users to effortlessly replace lenses by pressing the touch sensitive buttons to release the lens frame, achieving quick changes in lighting distribution without professionals or tools. Such a design meets lighting requirements of different settings. The magnetic design ensures the flatness of the optical components to guarantee precise light distribution, which improves the performance and maintainability of the product.
