LightMirror brings natural sunlight into buildings.
By installing inclined reflective panels at the edges of roofs, we redirect sunlight to nearby buildings, transforming it into a valuable and manageable resource.
Key Benefits:
Energy Efficiency: Our reflective solar panels increase solar thermal gain, reducing the need for artificial heating.
Natural Lighting: The redirected daylight enhances the indoor environment, promoting well-being and comfort for occupants.
How It Works:
Simple Installation: Mounted on the roof's edge or upper facade, our flat, durable, reflective glass frames are easy to install.
Passive Control: No motors or electricity are needed. The angle of the reflective panels can be adjusted manually with a bolt to optimize sunlight direction.
Sunlight Redirection: Our system utilizes heliostat algorithms to precisely redirect sunlight through windows and other openings to maximize solar gains where they matter most.
Concept
In a nutshell
LightMirror is an innovative yet simple solution that harnesses natural sunlight to reduce your energy consumption.
Unlike traditional solar panels, it doesn't focus on generating electricity but smartly redirects sunlight to illuminate and warm your spaces naturally.
GIS and big-data computation
To ensure widespread acceptance and effective implementation, we employ advanced 3D city modelling and sunlight simulation. This approach quantifies direct sunlight and solar heat distribution across buildings in a city, providing valuable insights for authorities and residents.
Key Benefits:
-
Detailed Analysis: Our simulations generate a comprehensive map highlighting buildings that lack sufficient solar heat through their windows, helping to address energy inefficiencies.
-
Conflict Mitigation: By understanding sunlight shadowing patterns, we can help reduce neighbourhood disputes related to sunlight blocking.
-
Optimal Placement: Identify areas where direct solar radiation is least needed, allowing for strategic placement of reflective panels to maximize sunlight redirection benefits.
-
Energy Savings: Accurately calculate the energy savings for residents and improve their daylight exposure, leading to enhanced comfort and reduced energy costs.
Our Services
We assist healthcare buildings in designing brighter and sunnier rooms while reducing their heating needs.
Feasibility study
Our Feasibility Study offers a comprehensive assessment of your building and its surroundings. We create a detailed plan including a product specification, technology selection, and a roadmap for implementation. This study provides clear answers on the product's appearance, functionality, and cost.
Feasibility study
Prototyping
We create physical prototypes that highlight the unique features and benefits of our product. Our team prepares an in-depth product specification, conducts an analysis of potential thermal gain, and quantifies the anticipated increase in natural daylight in your space. The prototypes are designed to give you a tangible representation of the product.
End-to-end product development
We provide a holistic service that takes you from the initial concept to the final installation of the reflective panels. We manage the entire process, coordinating with all partners involved, and ensure that the design is optimized to fit into your building's facade or roof, transforming your space into a brighter, more energy-efficient environment.
