Ship and cruise projects

Yihua Intelligent — engineering every project with care, building satisfied customer quality.

Whole-ship smart lighting for passenger vessels — DALI, controllable silicon and DMX512 on separate circuits, with logic centralised and scenes matched to the rhythm of a day at sea.

Grand Bay Area No.1 cruise ship

China's first hybrid luxury catamaran passenger vessel, built for the 40th anniversary of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, 71.88 metres long with 350 passenger capacity. The whole ship is managed on the global-standard KNX system, with DMX512 assisting outdoor RGBW strip and downlight effects, integrating 32 scenes.

How we work

The special constraints of marine lighting

At sea there is no way back: the commissioning window is short, so every connection and every parameter has to be verified before departure.

Separate circuits are a precondition

DALI, controllable silicon and DMX512 each run on their own circuits. Mixing them is an irreversible design defect that cannot be remedied on site.

Central logic with local triggering

The logic sits in the central dimming cabinet while local panels only trigger, which makes uniform commissioning and fault isolation straightforward.

Scenes follow the operating rhythm

A dozen scenes cover a day of operation at sea, translating the operating routine into light rather than simply adding more fixtures.

No rework at sea

The commissioning window is extremely short, so every connection and every parameter has to be verified before the ship leaves port.

Circuit separation first

DALI, controllable silicon and DMX512 kept apart by design.

Central logic, local trigger

Uniform commissioning and clean fault isolation.
