HistoryNanoleaf was founded in 2012 by three friends and University of Toronto engineering graduates Gimmy Chu, Christian Yan and Tom Rodinger.[3] They were each working in different industries after graduation while creating Nanoleaf on the side. After a year, the three quit their jobs to develop the company full-time. In January 2013, Nanoleaf launched their first product on Kickstarter.[4] The crowdfunding campaign for NanoLight (later renamed Nanoleaf One) received $250,000 from the crowdfunding site, with an initial goal of $20,000. Following the success of this campaign, Nanoleaf received funding from Horizons Ventures, an investment company owned by Li Ka Shing [5] and Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins.[6] The company also opened their first offices in Shenzhen, China and Hong Kong.[7] Their second Kickstarter campaign for the Nanoleaf Bloom in July 2014 was similarly well received. The campaign generated $192,973 in funding with a goal of $20,000.[8] Nanoleaf opened their Headquarters in Toronto, Canada in January 2015. In 2017, the company launched into Europe and Australia. Their European office opened in Paris, France in April 2018. TechnologyNanoleaf utilizes patented technology that aims for energy efficiency and a sustainable manufacturing process.[9][10] The Smarter Series (Nanoleaf Light Panels and Canvas) are made with LED chips on a printed circuit board and feature a diffuser on a flat surface. They are modular LED lights with smart capabilities including App and voice control. Each Light Panel connects together with linkers (SD card-like connector chips), while power flows through them from the Controller (via power outlet). The Light Panels and Canvas are sold in 'Smarter Kits' which include 9 pieces, with extras available in three-packs.[11] The Nanoleaf Light Panels were introduced at the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show.[12] The company's lightbulbs are also made up of small LEDs on a folded circuit board and feature an origami-like design. The technology eliminates the need of a heat sink, keeping the bulb cool to the touch while reducing the amount of energy used during manufacturing. Nanoleaf bulbs also have overheat protection which allows the bulb to dim itself if it gets too hot, reducing the possibility of damage and increasing its potential life span. The bulbs are also shatter-resistant. ProductsNanoleaf OneThe Nanoleaf One was the company's first product, released on Kickstarter in 2013 (formerly named the NanoLight). The product claims to be the world's most energy efficient light bulb and uses patented technology with custom packaged LED chips.[13][14] Nanoleaf BloomThe company's second product, the Nanoleaf Bloom, was introduced in 2014 to make dimmable lighting more accessible. The Nanoleaf Bloom eliminates the need for a dimmer switch with the bulb's built-in dimming technology.[15][16] Originally offered in Black, White and Arctic Leaf colors, the Bloom was later released with different designs including patterns with the Moomin character, hearts and maple leaves. Nanoleaf GemMarketed as an LED bulb for designers, the Nanoleaf Gem was released on Earth Day in 2015.[17] The Gem was the company's first dimmable glass bulb and remains their best selling light bulb to date. Nanoleaf Ivy Smarter KitLaunched at the end of 2015, the Nanoleaf Ivy Smarter Kit is a voice-controlled lighting system.[18][19] It is the company's first product with smart home automation and works with Siri voice control.[20] The company lists it as the world's most energy efficient smart bulb. Nanoleaf Rhythm Edition Light PanelsThe Nanoleaf Light Panels are modular LED smart lights with color changing abilities. The Light Panels are color customizable with the Nanoleaf Smarter Series App. They can also be controlled using voice control and with the manual controller.[21][22] The Light Panels are the company's first color changing product and has drawn attention from the design & lifestyle community, making its television debut on The Ellen Degeneres Show and on CTV National in Canada [23] The Nanoleaf Light Panels initially launched into the MoMA Design Store in NYC during October 2016. It was then sold nationwide in Best Buy stores across US and Canada starting November 2016. Apple Stores also began retailing the Nanoleaf Light Panels globally in March 2017. The first Light Panels upgrade, the Rhythm Module, was introduced in October 2017.[24] The Rhythm is an add-on sound module that lets the Light Panels react to music in real-time.[25][26] The Nanoleaf Remote, a physical controller for the Light Panels, launched in June 2018.[27][28] Nanoleaf CanvasLaunched in December 2018, the Nanoleaf Canvas is a touch-controlled modular LED smart light. The Canvas has a built-in music visualizer and square shape compared to the Light Panels' triangular form. It also features a textured marble-like style and edge-lit design.[29] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Lighting a Revolution|url=http://www.magazine.utoronto.ca/leading-edge/lighting-a-revolution-nanoleaf-christian-yan-gimmy-chu-tom-rodinger/|work=University of Toronto Magazine|accessdate=26 March 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Nanoleaf Bloom Dimming Bulbs Over $160,000 During Final Days on Kickstarter|url=http://www.crowdfundinsider.com/2014/09/48447-nanoleaf-bloom-dimming-bulbs-over-160000-during-final-days-on-kickstarter/|website=crowdfundinsider.com|accessdate=31 March 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Light of a New Age|url=http://www.design-engineering.com/features/light-of-a-new-age-design-eng/|website=www.design-engineering.com|accessdate=26 March 2015}} 4. ^{{cite news|title=Toronto grads invent world's most energy efficient bulb|url=https://www.thestar.com/business/2013/02/01/toronto_grads_invent_worlds_most_energyefficient_light_bulb.html|work=Toronto Star|date=1 January 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Li Ka-shing Heralds LEDs as Key to Future Economic Growth|url=http://www.ledinside.com/news/2014/3/li_ka_shing_heralds_leds_as_key_to_future_economic_growth|website=ledinside.com|accessdate=26 March 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web|title="Asia's richest philanthropist," major Silicon Valley firm invest in alumni's Nanoleaf light bulb|url=http://news.utoronto.ca/asia-richest-philanthropist-major-silicon-valley-firm-invest-alumni-nanoleaf-light-bulb|accessdate=26 March 2015}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Hong Kong: Perfect Launchpad for Overseas Green Tech Startups|accessdate=26 March 2015|url = https://www.forbes.com/sites/irisleung/2015/01/04/hong-kong-the-perfect-launchpad-for-overseas-green-tech-startups/}} 8. ^{{cite web|title=Nanoleaf Bloom Smart Lightbulb – Needs no App – No Dimmer|url=http://mytechreport.com/nanoleaf-bloom-smart-lightbulb-needs-app-dimmer/|publisher=My Tech Report|accessdate=21 February 2015}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Alumni launch "world's most energy-efficient light bulb"|accessdate=26 March 2015|url = http://news.utoronto.ca/fiat-lux-alumni-launch-nanolight}} 10. ^{{cite web|title=Hong Kong start-up Nanoleaf has created the world's most energy-efficient light bulb|accessdate=26 March 2015|url = http://hkmb.hktdc.com/en/1X0A1A42/venture-hong-kong/Switched-On}} 11. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.cnet.com/products/nanoleaf-aurora/review/|title=Color-changing smart panels that work with Siri?
