Executive Overview -
Your Innovation Partner
The Responsiv Smart Power architecture, described in our patent, supports both off-the-shelf innovation and your opportunity toward new advanced smart light controls, protectable with new patents. We expect superior cost effectiveness, simplicity, and ease of use will displace current market trends.
LED lighting has dramatically increased the cost and installation complexity of dimming control. Typical smart lights are a poor solution. Your much better alternative can be simpler and smarter lights and controls.
Jump start your first product with our off-the-shelf Blink'n'Dim protocol. Hundreds of our customers use 0-10V Blink'n'Dim Adapters to avoid rewiring for 0-10V dimming. They facilitate automation while enabling control with an ordinary ON/OFF switch. (See "Blink'n'Dim" below.)
With no net manufacturing cost vs. obsolete "dimmability" circuits, Blink'n'Dim delivers premium customer value in three ways:
Next, add dedicated controls to replace manual switches. Give them graphical touch screens, duplicated by a web page on the local Wi-Fi network. Use your own patent-protectable power line communication protocol alongside Blink'n'Dim with your advanced smart lights. Your advanced controls will permit zero setup operation, while enabling advanced automation.
Built on the Responsiv platform, your advanced smarter lights with dedicated wall controls can support a rich command set for versatile color and animation control at electronic speed. Provide full-featured smart lighting with even more manufacturing savings and premium customer value:

With no net manufacturing cost vs. obsolete "dimmability" circuits, Blink'n'Dim delivers premium customer value in three ways:
- Eliminates cost and installation of dedicated controls for dimming
- Enables control from multiple switch locations
- Enables automated control by computerized switches

- Zone Level Control simplifies programming by automatically sending identical commands to each light in a zone. If a zone uses more than one switch, only one need be computerized. A zone may be manually switched off without disabling computer control. Any manual switch may also control dimming.
- Power Line Communications via your dedicated controls are reliable, secure, and confined to their zone. Lights need no wireless link or additional control wiring. They do not need to remain powered on while dark to receive computer commands.

Simple dimming is practical using only an ordinary switch. Our convenient "Blink'n'Dim" protocol works as follows: From full brightness, blink lights off about 1 second to begin gradual dimming. Lights will dim fully in about 6 seconds, or may be set at any desired level by another blink signal. After dimming, a blink signal begins gradual brightening. Another blink halts brightening at any point until lights reach full brightness. Manual signaling can be used in combination with automated signaling to optimize user experience.
Electronic Signaling
A simple computer operated switch can command all lights connected in a zone simultaneously, and more rapidly than manual switching. The same wiring that delivers power to the lights delivers automated commands reliably, securely, and at no additional cost. The computer system can range from comprehensive site control to a dedicated wall control or phone app. This approach makes incremental computerization feasible, while supporting manual control with no automation. Versatile color and animation options are practical. Proven firmware is available in dimming-only and versatile RGB configurations.
