Application Guide Street and Roadway Lighting Street and Roadway Street and Roadway Lighting Application Guide Safer Streets with Dramatically Better Visibility and a Maximized Bottom Line Street and Roadway The Difference You Can See. The Payback You Expect. Staying within your city’s budget can be challenging. Cree® LED luminaires can help maximize your bottom line by reducing the amount of energy and money you spend on maintaining your street lighting system. By delivering a low total cost of ownership with a typical energy savings of 30- 70 percent over traditional lighting sources, near zero maintenance costs, and fast payback, upgrading to LED lighting just makes sense. Upgrade municipal lighting in streets, public buildings, walkways, parking structures, and common areas. Not only will this help keep your operating and maintenance budget in check, it will provide dramatically better visibility — making public areas safe and secure. • Proven quality & performance • Reduced maintenance costs • Ultra-efficient lighting • Easy installation & retrofitting • Lifetime energy savings • Long-term financial benefits 2 3 Overview Spaces Roadway Car Park Urban Landscapes Highway Residential Roads Highway Junctions Tunnel 4 5 Street and Roadway Application Guide Roadway Keep the City Beautiful Cree® LED luminaires offer uncompromising pure white light that renders more true-to-life color — a sharp and beautiful contrast to the yellow hues of the high-pressure sodium fixtures of the past.

  • THE MYSTERY of FLASH REVEALED by Charlie Borland All Text and Images Copyright © Charlie Borland
    THE MYSTERY OF FLASH REVEALED by Charlie Borland All text and images Copyright © Charlie Borland LESSON 1 UNDERSTANDING FLASH In a perfect world for photography, every photograph we take would have perfect light, the perfect subject, perfect exposure, resulting in the perfect photograph. However, as you know there is nothing perfect in our world including the conditions, in which we photograph. Fortunately, there are tools available that allow us to capture pictures that may appear close to perfect and flash is one of them. Flash has so many useful applications in photography. It can be the dominant light source or a secondary light source. Here it is secondary as the flash is set for flash fill to lower the contrast created by the sun. We will cover flash fill coming up. In this course, we will closely examine how flash works in conjunction with your camera and explore techniques that will improve your photographs, and even open up creative options you may not have been aware. Once you understand the principals behind flash, you will find that using one is really quite simple. You can then take these fundamentals, and apply them to your particular flash and camera system. There are many makes and models available today and they change literally on a daily basis. We cannot possibly cover how each and every flash unit works, but with the basic understanding of flash theory and technique, you should easily be able to revisit your owner’s manual and gain a thorough understanding of how your flash and camera system work together.

Now the India has been using the remote control of energy in solar power. Solar electrification is the most important part of the developing in India as it is urban area or rural area. In this paper, we are focusing the optimization of solar electrification to charge of power, cost efficient and efficiency effect. Also discuss the how LED light is more efficiently as compare to the CFL light in solar street light. We will discuss the study of LED light and CFL light about access the energy in solar project. Solar street light project has developed by new technology as automated control system, tubular battery, panel’s type. India is using the solar street light in rural areas because of the less transportation of electricity in rural areas. We are studding the rural street light in Rajasthan to generate the solar electric light in road. Solar Street light is friendly behavior of human being to save the energy and reduces the criminal cases on road in night and also reduced the accident in night. Street light optimization is discussing the sufficient of street light in an area of road in INDIA. We are discussing the population of rural area and use the street light to evaluate the effect on environment by the different type of light.

  • Lighting 101
    Strobist ::: Apparatus minor • Cogitatio magis • Lux melior ::: Lighting 101 http://strobist.com ver. 12-2013 Introduction Welcome to Lighting 101. You may not realize it yet, but you have just stepped through a door that may change your photography forever. Over the past few years, over four million people from nearly every country in the world have begun their lighting education right here. And if they can do it, you can do it. Photography is literally writing with light. As you read through Lighting 101 you'll learn how to control every aspect of your electronic flash. If you can imagine it, you'll be able to create it. You'll learn how to take the removable flash that you probably already have on the top of your camera and use it off-camera to make beautiful, more three-dimensional photos. Once you learn the basics of controlling light, you'll quickly see that most lighting is intuitive, easy and fun. The Good News: The Gear Doesn't Cost Much (Photo by Strobist reader Sam Simon) Basic lighting gear is also refreshingly inexpensive. If you have a camera, lens and flash you have already done the spendy part. The gear needed to take your light off-camera is very inexpensive compared to your camera, your flash or even a single lens. By getting your flash off-camera, your images become more three-dimensional, more textural and more professional looking. All of the photos on this page were made by Strobist readers (who very recently may well have been exactly where you are right now) just lighting with small flashes.

LED’s are electrically efficient and are now being used for street lighting applications to save power costs. • HPS (High Pressure Sodium) A sodium-vapor lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses sodium in an excited state to produce. High-pressure sodium lamps (sometimes called HPS lights) have been widely used in industrial lighting, especially in street lighting applications. • Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) indicates how “warm” or “cool” the light a particular lighting technology generates is. CCT is measured in Kelvin (K). A higher value (>5,000K) indicates a “cooler”/bluer light color; a lower value (<4,500K) indicates a “warmer”/more orange light color. • Illuminance indicates the light intensity on a surface per unit area. It is measured in footcandles (fc). 1 fc = 1 lumen/square foot. • Kilowatt-hours (kWh) is a measurement of energy. It is calculated by multiplying the power draw (wattage) of a device by the amount of time for which it is drawing power (e.g., a 100W light bulb that is on for 10 hours uses 100 x 10 = 1,000 watt-hours = 1 kWh). • Uniformity: The evenness of light distribution.
