To see the effect of the combination of white LEDs and colored LEDs we made a first prototype. It consists of a fixture and a pole that we got from a company specialized in outdoor design of light. Inside we put a Philips HUE Lamp, a wireless lighting system that allows you to control the color of the light in the bulb via your computer. With this technology we can try out all the variations that are possible in the color spectrum. With the computer program you can just type a code and via a wireless network the light will immediately respond and shine the desired color. We bought some separate white LEDs at the Ikea, and we put them under the fixture. The idea is that the white LEDs are there to provide traffic safety, for example for bikers, to make sure they have good vision while riding through the street. The colored LEDs that are inside the fixture are to create a mood light, via soft color tints. The combination of the white LEDs and the colored LEDs will look something like this:
