IoT Empowers Sports Lighting — Weiyadi Strikes with Full Force

On August 11, at Xiaomi's 10th anniversary, Lei Jun publicly responded for the first time to the bet with Dong Mingzhu. He noted, "Gree is indeed an excellent and well-established manufacturing company, but Xiaomi, at its peak in 2013, also dared to compete with Gree with full confidence." Indeed, in the internet age, no brand is too strong to be challenged! And no company is too small to compete! When opportunities arise, what matters is who seizes them first and rises to the occasion.

Seizing Opportunities

Many sports industry practitioners have firsthand experience that since the 2008 Olympics, China's sports industry has entered a fast track of development. Subsequently, the "Outline for Building a Sports Powerhouse" issued by the General Office of the State Council clearly stated that by 2035, the sports industry will become a pillar industry of the national economy. This has further driven the continuous increase in the number of sports venues in China, and sports lighting, as a sunrise industry, is embracing new development opportunities.

Focusing on Technological Innovation, Smart Sports Lighting Must Be "Brighter"

With the rapid development of the Internet of Things and the increasing maturity of LED technology, sports lighting is moving toward intelligence and emotional engagement. The word "smart" is in high demand, and "smart sports lighting" is gradually moving from concept to practice. As a result, since the beginning of this year, more and more sports venues and sports lighting companies have begun to focus on the intelligent development of LED lighting.

Smart Sports Lighting

On August 11, in the first game of the 2019–2020 CBA Finals held in Qingdao, the defending champion Guangdong team defeated the Liaoning team 110–88 to take the lead. In large sports arenas with extremely high requirements for professionalism and sensory experience like this, only a good lighting environment with uniform illuminance and brightness and no glare can ensure the smooth progress of the event and meet the functional requirements of high-definition television broadcasting.

Wise Lighting, as a national high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, design, production, and sales of LED sports lighting fixtures, deeply understands that for sports lighting companies to overcome the challenge of "smart sports lighting," it is necessary to build a highly intelligent and integrated information management system. Through years of unremitting efforts, Wise Lighting has independently developed a smart sports lighting system called the "Wise Smart Grid Cloud," integrating information technology with management to improve operational efficiency and achieve truly smart sports lighting.

Strict Control of Materials and Processes, Smart Sports Lighting Must Be "More Refined"

Looking back at the history of sports lighting, we have passed through the stages of high-pressure mercury lamps, high-pressure sodium lamps, and metal halide lamps. Now, only more advanced lighting technologies and light sources can be iteratively upgraded to meet the usage needs of modern sports venues. This requires practitioners to carry out innovative R&D in the design, processes, and production equipment of lighting products.

The sports world pursues "higher, faster, stronger," and the lighting industry likewise pursues its own "higher, better, stronger" — higher luminous efficacy, better light quality, and stronger lighting technology. As a light source closest to natural light, Weiyadi LED court lighting fixtures not only offer advantages such as good color rendering, no glare, strong penetration, stable performance, and comfortable visual experience, but also feature energy-saving and environmentally friendly attributes such as low energy consumption, high luminous efficacy, long service life, and low subsequent maintenance costs. They have very obvious advantages in sports venue applications.

This is inseparable from Weiyadi's insistence on applying advanced domestic and international technologies, conducting strict layer-by-layer screening from design modeling to material selection and production control, ensuring the entire lighting system is efficient and energy-saving, and its pursuit of "building the Chinese national sports lighting brand into a benchmark in the smart sports lighting industry."

Expanding Application Areas, Smart Sports Lighting Must Be "Broader"

After 10 years of meticulous refinement, Weiyadi has continuously delivered high-quality sports lighting products to major universities, governments, enterprises, public welfare projects, and other fields at home and abroad with professional technology. It continuously expands the market and strives to promote the industry-leading smart sports lighting system to all parts of the world.

National Fitness Venue Lighting

As the epidemic prevention and control situation continues to improve, sports venues across the country are reopening in an orderly manner. On the just-passed August 8 "National Fitness Day," these venues carried out a variety of national fitness activities. Facing the "national fitness" boom, how can we provide more possibilities for the use of sports venues in different scenarios? How can the combination of light and sports venues provide people with a comfortable competition and exercise experience? Sports lighting companies involved in this need to think calmly.

In the future, Weiyadi will continue to put customers first, continuously fulfill its brand promise, provide customers with systematic solutions including sports lighting technology, products, and services, empower sports lighting with the Internet of Things, and actively participate in the construction of the smart sports lighting industry.
