Lighting, Backlighting & Control Technologies
Flexible Protocol Integration for Architectural Applications
Intelligent Lighting & Backlighting for Modern Environments
Lighting and backlighting systems have evolved far beyond basic illumination. Today’s architectural projects demand precision control, uniform light distribution, tunable color temperatures, and seamless integration with building control systems.
At Daylite, we engineer simulated windows and skylights using proven lighting and backlighting technologies that integrate smoothly with both traditional and smart lighting control platforms. Our approach is intentionally brand-agnostic and protocol-flexible, allowing designers, architects, and integrators to select the control strategy that best fits the project — without sacrificing performance or future compatibility.
Lighting Control Protocols We Support


​
Wired & Analog Protocols
-
0-10V Analog Control
A widely adopted standard for dimming and tunable white lighting in commercial spaces. Known for reliability and simplicity, 0-10V remains a cornerstone of professional lighting systems. -
DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface)
A digital, two-way communication protocol that allows individual fixture addressing, monitoring, and advanced scene control at scale. -
DMX / SPI
Protocols commonly used in architectural, feature, and dynamic lighting applications where precise control over intensity, color, and effects is required.





Wireless & Networked Protocols
-
Bluetooth Mesh
A low-energy wireless mesh topology that enables devices to communicate directly with one another without centralized gateways — ideal for scalable smart lighting systems. -
Zigbee
A robust wireless mesh protocol widely used in smart lighting, offering reliability, scalability, and interoperability. -
Wi-Fi / App-Based Control
Enables direct control via mobile devices or cloud platforms and easy integration with broader smart building and automation ecosystems.
Daylite products can operate within these protocols individually or as part of hybrid systems, depending on project requirements.



Advanced Backlighting Technology — Brand-Agnostic by Design


-
Daylite simulated windows and skylights rely on advanced LED backlighting systems engineered to deliver uniform luminance, high color accuracy, and smooth dimming performance across large illuminated surfaces.
-
Rather than locking projects into proprietary solutions, Daylite incorporates professionally proven backlighting architectures commonly used in:
-
Architectural light panels
-
Light sheets and reticular arrays
-
Edge-lit and direct-view LED assemblies
-
Custom-shaped and large-format backlit surfaces
Key Backlighting Capabilities
-
Uniform Illumination
Carefully engineered LED spacing, optical diffusion, and power distribution ensure consistent brightness without hot spots or shadowing. -
High CRI & Color Consistency
Backlighting systems are optimized for high color rendering and consistent correlated color temperature (CCT), critical for biophilic and human-centric lighting applications. -
Flicker-Free Dimming
Designed to perform smoothly at low light levels across multiple control protocols, supporting comfort-focused environments.
Unified Smart Lighting Ecosystems
Through compatible control platforms, Day-lite systems can unify multiple lighting technologies — including backlighting panels, linear lighting, sensors, and switches — into a single control experience.
​
Capabilities may include:
-
Scene creation and recall
-
Time-based and circadian scheduling
-
Grouping and zoning of fixtures
-
Mobile device commissioning and adjustment
-
Seamless coexistence of wired and wireless control systems
This approach simplifies installation, commissioning, and long-term maintenance.
Day-lite’s Philosophy: Protocol-Agnostic & Future-Ready
At Day-lite, we believe lighting design should never be constrained by control limitations.
Our systems are developed to remain:​
-
Flexible
-
Scalable
-
Future-proof
Compatible with legacy systems and next-generation smart lighting platforms.
From single feature installations to multi-zone, networked architectural environments.
Designed to adapt as control technologies evolve — without requiring full system replacement.
