Besides being essential for vision, light affects human performance, alertness and mood. It influences body rhythms such as sleep patterns, ovulation and hormone secretion. The absorption of sunlight by our skin is also a necessary part of our body’s chemistry. Without sunlight there would be no life. Insufficient sunlight may cause depression and lethargy. How much light do we need? In order to see properly without eye strain we need a minimum light quantity or intensity. The light output onto a surface is measured in lux. lux = the number of lumens per square metre of surface: In offices a minimum of 500 lux In schools a minimum of 300 lux In homes a minimum of 200 lux. What kind of light do we want? The quality of the light is important too: the more natural light available, the better. Natural light offers us a balanced light spectrum with a full range of different wavelengths.

  • Industrial Lighting a Primer
    Industrial Lighting A Primer All through history people have sought better ways to illuminate their work. Even the cavemen needed torches to allow them to draw on the walls of their underground caverns. Fire brought both light and heat for thousands of years before crude lamps of animal fat gave way to the candle for general indoor illumination used around the world. Roman Grease Lamp An offshoot of the common candlestick became what we now call the Lacemakers Globe. This quite possibly could qualify as the world’s first industrial light source! It was observed that when a candle flame was aligned behind a rounded glass bottle filled with water, a magnifying and focusing effect was produced, in addition to simply lighting up a small area. This was high technology of the first order! No longer did the lacemaker have to pack it in when the sun went down, for soon the new Lacemaker’s Globe became fairly common in European Cottage Industry, enabling the production of lace at a greater rate than ever before. It is also not too much of a stretch to conclude that the repetitive patterns of the lacemaker could be looked upon as a forerunner to the theory of mass production, along with the pin makers who toiled away in the ‘second tier’ of the feeble light pool cast by the globe, hammering heads onto straightened bits of wire in order to make the common pin. This was mighty slim pickings by today’s standards to be sure, but just a few hundred years ago it represented a revolutionary increase in handiwork production after the sun went down, for the very first time in history.

It’s not only a place to prepare and eat food, but also a place to relax, a place to entertain, and a place to enjoy. It should be inviting, bright, functional, and easy to control. The right kitchen lighting will help you stay clean, organized, and safe, while letting you create the perfect atmosphere for an early morning baking frenzy, board games with the kids on a rainy afternoon, or spending a couple’s night in. Most of all, light layering (having multiple light sources for different purposes) is the most important, all-encompassing rule in kitchen lighting design. A single light source never does any space justice. You need different sources of light for different purposes. Ambient lighting, task lighting, accent lighting, safety lighting, and mood lighting are all essential parts of great kitchen design. This book will first and foremost address task lighting in the kitchen. Under cabinet lights are the most popular, attractive, and handy kind of task lighting for the kitchen. Lighting designers agree that the path to any beautiful, functional kitchen starts with excellent task lights. Kitchen task lights have one simple purpose – to help you out.

    Consumer Factsheet Home lighting Lighting is an important parameter in home design, enabling safety and comfort for the performance of everyday tasks, such as walking, reading, cooking, etc. The purpose of this factsheet is to inform people about the properties of the most common household lights and assist them choose the right light bulb for their needs. Which lighting types should I use in my home? There are three main types of light bulbs that can be used in home interiors: Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs); Fluorescents and Compact Fluorescent bulbs; and halogen bulbs. The choice of lighting source depends on many parameters, such as the use of the space and the lighting levels required, the cost of the bulb and its useful life, the energy that it consumes, the colour of the light it emits, etc. Two main lighting techniques are used in home environments: general lighting and task lighting. General lighting is used to light a large space, e.g. a dining room or a bedroom. General lighting can be provided by natural light, artificial light or a combination of the two. Task lighting is the lighting used to increase the amount of light in a specific, smaller area, such as on a desk, on the kitchen counter, etc. Task lighting is usually provided by fixtures, as artificial light is more easily controlled than natural light. Both general and task lighting can be tailored to a resident’s needs. The following paragraphs describe the main types of bulbs used in homes and their characteristics. Useful information for general and task lighting is also provided.

  • A Practical Guide to Machine Vision Lighting
    A Practical Guide to Machine Vision Lighting Daryl Martin Midwest Sales and Support Manager Advanced illumination February, 2013 A Practical Guide to Machine Vision Lighting Abstract: It is well-understood that the quality and appropriateness of lighting are critical aspects for creating a quality, robust, and timely vision inspection. In addition to an understanding of illumination types and techniques, geometry, filtering, sensor characteristics, and color, a thorough analysis of the inspection environment, including sample presentation and sample-light interactions, provide a foundation upon which to design an effective vision lighting solution. It is suggested that designing and following a rigorous lighting analysis sequence will provide a consistent, and robust environment, thereby maximizing time, effort, and resources – items better used in other critical aspects of vision system design, testing, and implementation. Introduction Perhaps no other aspect of vision system design and implementation consistently has caused more delay, cost-overruns, and general consternation than lighting. Historically, lighting often was the last aspect specified, developed, and or funded, if at all. And this approach was not entirely unwarranted, as until recently there was no real vision-specific lighting on the market, meaning lighting solutions typically consisted of standard incandescent or fluorescent consumer products, with various amounts of ambient contribution. The objective of this paper, rather than to dwell on theoretical treatments,
