"Smart Lighting that Thinks" is a phrase coined by Robert F. Karlicek, Jr, director of the The Smart Lighting Engineering Research Center (ERC). Their overall goals are similar to Echelon's: to promote improved health, productivity, and well-being, while delivering greater energy savings. Echelon is now a member of the ERC and have begun to explore innovative motion sensing and color tuning technology as well as to develop solid-state lighting systems with advanced functionality.
