  • Recently, LED lighting fixtures for crosswalk become popular in order to recognize the pedestrians at crosswalk, which can enhance the safety of the pedestrian at crosswalk. However, there are several problems related to the LED lighting fixtures for crosswalk, such as a lot of energy consumption due to a constant illumination during night and glaring of pedestrians at the opposite side of crosswalk. In this study, in order to overcome these problems, we have investigated a novel LED lighting fixture for crosswalk, which has two modules with different angles ($60^{\circ}$, $120^{\circ}$). Illuminance of min and max at four-line city street crosswalk shown 50 Lux, 125 Lux, respectively. Illuminance of min and max at eight-line city street crosswalk shown 150 Lux, 200 Lux, respectively. Simulation investigation was optimized design using optical program. Prototype was verified measurement by goniometer system.

  • Dark and desolate underground parking spaces in commercial facilities are optimal spaces for crime. First, this study reviewed 15 precedent CPTED guidelines and related literatures, and as a result extracted 45 CPTED planning criteria for underground parking facilities. Secondly by field survey, we investigated six parking spaces in commercial facilities whether they were planned properly based on 45 checklist items, in six categories of CPTED principles. In result, target facilities showed average 46.8% relevance ratio, which means less than a half of 45 items of CPTED planning factors were not applied. Guidelines suggest desirable illuminance level of more than 100 lux, however the measurement of illuminance levels in some parking spaces showed below 50 lux. Relatively department stores were keeping CPTED guidelines better than large discount mart and mixed used facilities. Definition of territory of loading dock and customer area should be clarified, clear signage and color scheme in different zones should be represented with higher level of territorial responsibilities and surveillance in mixed used facilities for further improvement.

  • Purpose : We conducted a study to propose comparing subjective sleeping states data that was collected through scientifically measuring by using smartwatch and surveys for seafarers. In addition, we conducted a study to provide sleep though analysis of the environmental factors that influence the sleep efficiency of seafarers. Methods : For scientific measurement of seafarers' sleeping states, we measured the sleep hours and sleep efficiency for at least 3 days by using the healthcare function of smartwatches which are wearable devices. As for subjective sleeping states, we collected data on sleep hours and satisfaction rates on the quality of sleep through a survey. Lastly, as for the environmental factors that affect the sleep efficiency which is measured by smartwatches such as physical environment, bedroom space, bedroom furniture, bedding, a survey by self-evaluation method was conducted. Results : There were significant differences in the scientific sleep hours measurement values for all seafarers and the average sleep hours in the subjective survey. There were significant differences in the scientific sleep efficiency measurements of all the seafarers and the sleep satisfaction of the subjective survey, and there was no correlation between the scientific sleep efficiency and the subjective sleep satisfaction of all the seafarers. Among the environmental factors affecting the sleep efficiency of the seafarers, humidity variable had the most influence, and vibration and illuminance variables were also shown to have a very significant effect. Conclusion : We propose the measuring method that can analyze the quantitative and qualitative sleep states of the seafarers by using small activity recorders. In addition, it is very important to control humidity, vibration, and illuminance among ship environmental factors, and comfort, noise and bedroom size should also be reflected.

  • Luminance is the most important quantity in lighting design and illuminating engineering. There are three methods for measuring luminance; using a conventional luminance meter, through the illuminance measurement and subsequent calculations and using digital imaging photometer. Recently, HDRI(High Dynamic Range Imaging) technique introduces a new method of capturing luminance values in a lighting environment. The radiance maps from HDRI are commonly used as visual environment maps for lighting analysis applications. For the HDRI, HDR software is needed to create HDR image. Currently, there is number of HDR software available. The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether a luminance map can be accurately captured by the various types of HDR software which include HDR Shop and Photoshop. To accomplish this goal a set of experiments was conducted. In order to assess the luminance values of the HDR image from HDR software, the values had to be compared to the ones obtained with conventional methods of luminance measurement.

  • This paper describes the construction, measurement, and characterization of an instrument for the distribution of luminous flux. This is done by measuring the flux around a light source while a detector and a source is rotating, and integrating it over an entire imaginary surface surrounding the source. We make a gonio radiometer to realize the scales of total luminous flux and geometrically integrate to get total spectral flux from standards of irradiance and illuminance. The uncertainties of a total flux in the gonioradiometry are 1.3%, and 0.4% below the standard lamps of NIST and NIM for each other.

  • As the importance of outdoor lighting become more widely recognized, outdoor lighting has been installed in many buildings, plazas, landscape, and historical monuments in Korea, Outdoor lighting on showing complex, in particular, express its values as local landmarks. However, the excessive outdoor lighting in the large-scale shopping complex tends to cause light pollution. Many advanced countries are trying to create a comfortable lighting environment by the guidlines and regulations on outdoor lighting to prevent light pollution. For this research backgrounds, the light pollution of three showing complexes in Seoul have been investigated. For the purpose, luminance of building facade, horizontal illuminance, and vertical illuminance were measured with proper measurement instruments and compared the results with the CIE recommendations. The results of the study are as follows. As no cut-off luminaries are currently installed on pedestrian walks, some glare were occured partially. It also shows that the luminance of building facades are high to improve the degree of public awareness of buildings and advertisements. In other words, the luminance of the building facade, when compared with that of the CIE recommendations, is twice as high and the vatical illuminance of pedestrian walks is far higher than that of the CIE recommendations, which proves the existence of light pollution. As Korea has not yet provided proper regulations or guidelines for the control of light pollution, it is necessary to make appropriate codes for it.
