Helvar Supporting Research

It is important to know more, to learn and develop the world around us. To help scientists study the effects of light and lighting, energy-saving possibilities, UX, preferences and other new and developing topics, Helvar has prepared two lighting control sets for researchers.

We are offering these research sets for free to university groups and researchers performing related research. If one of the sets seems to be suitable for your research, please send your request to research@helvar.com. In your email, please briefly explain what kind of research you are planning to do and how you are planning to publish the results.
