About QuarkStar
QuarkStar is a technology innovations company founded by the pioneers of solid-state lighting
to 'magically' transform LED technology into modern solutions of light
to 'magically' transform LED technology into modern solutions of light
The Beginning
A team of the pioneers of solid-state lighting, those fundamental in bringing the field into being, came together in QuarkStar. They became known as QuarkStar's Lite, with the self-designated task to identify and solve the most critical problems and ‘pain points’ for solid-state lighting’s global dominance.
The Mission
Creating an integrated set of solutions for the future of lighting, an ecosystem of solutions that delivers major competitive advantage over the global transformation to LED lighting.
The Solution
The Integrated System of Lighting - the ultimate control of light through an integrated ladder of scalable technologies.
What is QuarkStar's LITE?
QuarkStar's team of Lighting Innovation, Technology, & Engineering
The LED is the first major lighting technology revolution in the better part of a century that has required major global infrastructural change. It will probably be the very last revolution as well, since the technology's efficiencies are so high and its potential applications so vast, it will be difficult to justify any additional global infrastructural change for alternative technologies. Because it is the last major shift in lighting and infrastructure, the next 10-15 years offers unprecedented opportunity.
With this transformation and its opportunities in mind, QuarkStar was founded with some of the best-known pioneers of solid-state lighting. This includes such luminaries as Roland Haitz, creator of Haitz's Law and "godfather" of solid-state lighting; Bob Steele, founder of Strategies in Light; and Peter Stormberg, former CTO of Philips Lighting; and many more.
Prior to QuarkStar – as technologists, engineers, market analysts, and industry prophets – they personally led the technology's earliest developments into the marketplace and helped usher in the era of solid-state lighting and its many new applications.
Catalyzing each other as team members of QuarkStar, their experience and foresight allowed them to predict not just the LED’s applications and trends, but to envision the technologies that would provide both technical and economic solutions that take optimal advantage of LEDs. These pioneering visions into the future along with the pioneers themselves have become QuarkStar’s LITE (Lighting Innovations, Technologies, and Engineering)™.
Instead of merely adapting existing lighting technologies to the LED, these deep insights have led to entire new technology frameworks designed to fully realize the LED's economic and technological potential: through enhanced performance, reduced costs in manufacturing and operation, and brand new markets and applications. These technologies have been ten years in the making, protected by a global patent portfolio of over 500 applications with nearly half already granted, and were built with the goal of providing to our partners protected technologies capable of dominating this last global lighting infrastructural shift.
Reach out if you'd like to hear more about what these technologies are and how they'll lead the future at nearly all levels of the SSL supply chain, from the package scale on up to luminaires and systems.
