Daylight is an important component for human and energy saving. Also, available daylight in inside provides positive influence on psychological and physiological aspects as well as good visual environment. It is important to lighting design for office building not only designing for artificial lighting but also using daylight for energy savings. Therefore, lighting designers and architectures must consider the effects of the daylight for human environment and energy savings. The BIN Method is one of the methods to predict energy savings using computer simulation but it spends more time than expectation. So, this study performs to simulate a simple space using the RADIANCE for examination and simplification of the BIN Method.

This paper proposes a method to detect calibration patterns for accurate camera calibration under complicated backgrounds and uneven lighting conditions of industrial fields. Required to measure object dimensions, the preprocessing of camera calibration must be able to extract calibration points from a calibration pattern. However, industrial fields for visual inspection rarely provide the proper lighting conditions for camera calibration of a measurement system. In this paper, a probabilistic criterion is proposed to detect a local set of calibration points, which would guide the extraction of other calibration points in a cluttered background under irregular lighting conditions. If only a local part of the calibration pattern can be seen, input data can be extracted for camera calibration. In an experiment using real images, we verified that the method can be applied to camera calibration for poor quality images obtained under uneven illumination and cluttered background.

This is a study to establish regulations against light pollution for lighting on roads. Many kinds of light pollution by luminaire on roads was calculated and analyzed by applying the classification method of luminaires(Cut-off classification of IDA-IESNA, BUG Rating Classification) and the calculation method of Upward Lighting Ratio of CIE among measures to prevent light pollution that international lighting organizations suggest. As a result of the analysis, it was found that the regulation by Cutoff of IESNA and ULR classification of CIE could be one for scattered light of light pollution compared to BUG classification but is not sufficient for the regulation of light tresspass or glare. BUG classification by each lighting zone was suggested as threshold value of the light pollution regulation considering domestic conditions.

Outdoor lighting have been controlled by laws and regulations instituted in accordance with each country's situations because lights are also considered as one of pollutions at the view of environmental pollutions and energy saving. Thus, in this paper, we suggest the calculation method and regulations of light pollution suitable for domestic by comparing and analyzing various types of road lighting luminaires based on the calculation method of light pollution accepted internationally.

In this paper, we developed an optical sheet for LED lighting with integrated $CO_2$ gas and temperature sensor which can monitor at the indoor environment. The optical sheet for LED lighting is fabricated through PMMA(Polymethyl methacrylate) injection process using mold. This research enables to fabricate the reflective sheet, light-guide plate and the prism sheet in a optical sheet. The fabricated sheet demonstrates higher intensity of optical efficiency compared with single-sided sheets. The $CO_2$ sensor was fabricated using NDIR(NON-Dispersive Infrared) method and it has $0.0235mV/V{\cdot}PPM$ sensitivity. The temperature sensor was fabricated using RTD(Resistance temperature detector) method and it has $0.563{\Omega}/^{\circ}C $sensitivity.

In industrial computer vision systems, the image quality is dependent on the parameters such as light source, illumination method, optics, and surface properties. Most of them are related with the lighting system, which is designed in heuristic, based on the designer's experimental knowledge, In this paper, a design code by which the optimal lighting method and light source for computer vision systems can be found are suggested based on experimental results, To prove the usefulness of the design code, it is applied to the lighting system design of the transistor marking inspection system and the results are presented.

The accurcy and the application limits of the Three-Curve Method(TCM) and Zonal Cavity Method(ZCM) are evaluated. Average illuminance values are calculated by TCM and ZCM for various lighting conditions using general Diffusing Luminaires and Direct Luminaires. These values are compared with the values from Monte-Carlo Simulation(MCS) for the same lighting conditions. Accuracy of MCS was proved by Moon's Analytical Method.

In this paper, a method of determining the optimal threshold in image binarization for the marker recognition is suggested to resolve the problem that the performances of marker recognition are quite different according to the changes of indoor lighting. The suggested method determines the optimal threshold by considering the average brightness, the standard deviation and the maximum deviation of video image under the various indoor lighting circumstances, such as bright light, dim light, and shadow by unspecified obstacles. In particular, the recognition under the gradation lighting by shadow is improved by applying the weighted value that depends on the brightness of image. The suggested method is experimented to process $720{\times}480$ resolution video images under the various lighting environments, and it shows the fast and high performance, which is suitable for mobile indoor navigation.

In this paper, we present a new lighting control method considering ambient light in addition to the required lighting illumination for efficient energy saving of a LED stand. We estimate accurate environmental illuminance using a cheap illuminance sensor by modeling measured- and actual-illuminance using quadratic polynomial approximation. The relation between PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) duty ratio and illuminance intensity is modeled by a linear model. Illumination of the LED stand is controlled by estimating the difference of required illumination and the estimated ambient illumination. The developed LED stand has reduced electric energy consumption compared with a conventional manually controlled LED stand with the same lighting source. In addition, human subject evaluation shows that the LED stand, which is applied the proposed method, is more satisfactory than conventional ones since the proposed automatic controlled illumination produce more accurately required lighting and it is convenient.
