Trilux

Ten years ago, TRILUX demonstrated its expertise in lighting management with the launch of LiveLink, its innovative lighting management system. Since then, the system has become an industry benchmark. Today, with more than 100,000 installations across a wide range of industries and applications, LiveLink has proven its performance. “Through close collaboration with our project partners, we’ve continuously evolved LiveLink to meet the market’s needs,” explains Sebastian Ludwig, Head of the Competence Center for Light Management at TRILUX. The latest innovation is a compact LiveLink Premium Controller for medium-sized projects. The next milestone: a hybrid system for DALI and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) luminaires.

In-House Innovations, Quality and Versatility​

In 2013, TRILUX decided to develop its own light management system, drawing on its extensive expertise – built from experience with OEM solutions of its former electronics subsidiary BAG. “For project-specific adaptations or new developments, we were dependent on our suppliers,” explains Sebastian Ludwig. “With our own lighting management system, we were able to define our own standards, service portfolio and technological innovations,” Ludwig continues. LiveLink launched in 2015 with the most essential functionalities and has been continuously refined ever since. A key success factor is its adaptability: LiveLink is based on open technology standards, simplifying development and ensuring seamless integration with systems such as building management platforms. With over 100,000 installations, the system has established itself as a powerful and future-proof solution.

Shaping the Industry with Breakthrough Developments​

Since its launch, LiveLink has grown from a room-based solution to a flexible system landscape suitable for all building sizes and applications-including freely scalable installations for large-scale projects. Continuous innovation is the key success factor for this development. Milestones such as tablet-based commissioning, automated time-dependent lighting scenes, and pre-programmed Human Centric Lighting (HCL) ) have consistently raised the bar. One major leap came with cloud integration: with services like light monitoring and predictive maintenance, lighting systems can now be managed, optimised, and remotely controlled. The award-winning LiveLink ONE app has taken usability to a new level, combining intuitive commissioning and control with a best-in-class user experience. Recognised with the German Innovation Award 2024 and the iF Design Award 2025, the app now boasts over 10,000 users. TRILUX is continuously developing the hardware of the system landscape, the latest innovation being the new LiveLink Premium Controller in a 6TE housing for medium-sized projects with up to 500 DALI devices.

Technology, Connectivity and Cyber Security – the Development Continues​

“Because industry requirements change and technology is constantly evolving, LiveLink never stands still,” reveals Ludwig. The vision is to bring together all lighting control technologies in one system. The LiveLink team is currently developing a hybrid system that can simultaneously process DALI and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) control signals. TRILUX is also actively involved in shaping industry standards as part of the Bluetooth Mesh working group, advocating for an open, manufacturer-independent wireless standard beyond Casambi and ZigBee.

Cybersecurity is another growing priority, especially as the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) introduces strict requirements for protecting connected systems from cyberattacks. From August 2025, all wireless systems must comply, with wired systems to follow by the end of 2027. LiveLink products already meet current standards under the EU Radio Equipment Directive, and TRILUX is working on the necessary updates to ensure full CRA compliance. “Thanks to our internal development capabilities, we can respond quickly and precisely to these evolving needs. LiveLink isn’t just a system for today – it’s built for the future,” Ludwig concludes.

Trilux introduces Osido - a new luminaire family for outdoor building surrounds. The goal: to provide a consistent and harmonious design for all lighting tasks surrounding a building. The Osido wall lights, available in four shapes - square, rectangular, round and oval, kick things off. Designed for flexibility, the lighting technology and smart features can be tailored to individual project requirements. The wall lights also score points with many clever features, including innovative one-person mounting technology to make installation easier, a module for face illumination to ensure greater safety and comfort, and a slightly inclined indirect component which reduces spill light. The Osido wall lights have been available since February 2025. The series will be expanded in the coming months to include bollards, spotlights and ceiling lights.

Holistic Concepts with a Family Design​

Façades, outdoor staircases, pathways, and entrance areas all have different lighting requirements in terms of design, lighting quality, and lighting effect. These demands often result in inconsistent designs around buildings. The Osido luminaire range solves this challenge by offering a sophisticated solution that combines all these lighting tasks in a cohesive design and can even be used indoors. The family concept enables a uniform design language and ensures high lighting quality and technological compatibility between the different luminaire types. The modular approach also simplifies lighting design considerably.

First to be released are the Osido wall lights, which impress with their minimalist, modern design and gently rounded edges. Its high-quality die-cast aluminium housing has no visible screws and blends seamlessly into both contemporary and classic architecture. The range is available in elegant anthracite and can be customised in a range of special colours on request.

Innovative Installation​

One of Osido’s standout features is the newly developed installation concept, enabling single-person installation with Plug & Play connectivity. A larger cavity behind the mounting plate makes it easier to position the luminaire by providing additional clearance for routing the wall cable. Once the mounting plate has been attached, the electrical connection is established and secured via a fixed plug connector on the mounting plate and a flying plug connector on the luminaire. The luminaire housing can then be attached to the mounting plate- tool-free. Screws that could compromise the design are not required for fixing. Instead, a safety catch engages automatically when the housing is attached, which prevents theft or tampering.

Versatile Lighting Options for Every Application​

Thanks to a diverse selection of MLT Optics, Osido wall luminaires can solve almost any functional or decorative lighting task. There is a choice of direct and direct/indirect distribution luminaires, with narrow or wide light distribution. There are also solutions with asymmetrical light distribution for path lighting and a module for facial illumination. With this, the direct light components are directed so that passers-by's faces, and facial expressions are easier to recognise, which increases safety and well-being. Luminous flux packages between 500 and 4,000 lumens and three light colours (2,700 K, 3,000 K, 4,000 K) offer complete freedom in terms of lighting design.

Sustainability and Smart Technology​

In terms of sustainability, Osido scores points not only with its high efficiency of ≥ 143 lm/W and a service life of 50,000 hours but also with a sophisticated feature developed especially for this series: the indirect component, which is slightly inclined inwards. The 6° angled LED board directs the light precisely onto the façade and ensures effective, efficient staging of the architecture. At the same time, the amount of spilt light is reduced. When combined with a lighting control system, the Osido wall lights become even more sustainable (and smarter). The luminaires are available in switchable (ET), dimmable (ETDD) and, Casambi (ETBLE+CAS) versions, as well as an and emergency lighting version with a monitoring module. The Osido can be quickly and safely networked and controlled with the TRILUX LiveLink light management system (optional).

The new LiveLink ONE app opens up the whole world of light management with a single click. The entire system is automatically fully functional and can then be intuitively adapted to the individual project. Even complex lighting systems can be configured and controlled with ease.

LiveLink is ready for operation and fully functional right from the first start. All system devices are recognised automatically and can be easily adapted to the individual project via the user-friendly LiveLink ONE app. Highly practical: configuring the system can be carried out by the electrical contractor in any sequence – functionality is always maintained.

An LED solution controlled with LiveLink reduces energy consumption by up to 85% compared to unregulated conventional lighting systems. This also lowers energy costs for the lighting and reduces the own carbon footprint. Light management is already mandatory in many tenders and certifications.

Intelligent light management increases the quality of light and enhances visual comfort. LiveLink ONE offers numerous pre-set features such as Human Centric Lighting as well as functions for daylight-dependent control and presence control. In addition, light scenes can be flexibly programmed and called up at the touch of a button either via push-button or app, which means: always exactly the right light for the various tasks and individual needs.

With the LiveLink ONE app, luminaires can be individually grouped and controlled. The newly integrated Multiroom function enables both individual control of individual rooms and central, room-wide control. This optimizes the utilization of a DALI line and simplifies commissioning, as only one controller is required.

Get the app on your smartphone or tablet and see for yourself what the new LiveLink ONE app can do. Available from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.

The modular luminaire family combines maximum versatility with a uniformly attractive design. Available in three shapes* - round, square, linear - and in nine sizes, the range-typical minimalist geometric design and high-quality feel of OLISQ ensure a unified appearance and performance, visually, in terms of lighting technology and functionally. This enables uniquely attractive architectural design with light and luminaires.

Where simple hemispherical "kneecap" luminaires were used in the past, OLISQ now provides excellent, uniform light and an attractive ambience with its new but universal light distributions. A wide range of mounting methods, sizes and accessories for wall and ceiling illumination offer every freedom for tailor-made solutions optimised for the specific application. Subsequent modifications are also quick and easy to implement, e.g. colour individualisation or functional upgrades.

Clever features enable lightning-fast installation using a click system, as well as efficient and clean 1:1 refurbishment of many existing solutions by using existing drilling and feed points. In addition, all components are arranged in the box in mounting sequence, which speeds up installation and prevents damage and soiling. Service and maintenance is also user-friendly and sustainable. The OLISQ is made of high quality components, can be easily disassembled and the LED module can be replaced without tools.

The OLISQ can be used to equip all typical movement and meeting zones in buildings with a single series. There is a choice of two luminous fluxes per size, two light colours and an Active variant, two protection ratings (IP40 for standard cases and IP54 for e.g. sanitary and shower rooms), two diffuser materials (PC and PMMA) and two impact strengths (IK03 and IK08).

The purist, filigree design of the luminaire family harmonises with a wide range of architecture and enhances it with excellent light and a minimalist design. In particular, a combination of the various shapes, mounting types, colours and features such as wall or ceiling illumination creates new, perfectly illuminated attractive spaces without sacrificing functionality. Range-typical elements such as the finely structured, high quality diffuser look and feel, the flatness and the precise geometric edges make the luminaires an eye-catcher even in switched off state.
