This document discusses potential trends in LED luminaires over the next 5-10 years. It predicts that luminaires will be considered long-term building assets, though some components will eventually break. Luminaires will contain identification data to enable repairs. Heat transfer and lumen depreciation will be more accurately characterized. New luminaire designs focusing on task lighting and illuminating surfaces rather than ambient lighting entire spaces will emerge, taking innovative minimalist forms. Sustainability and user needs will increasingly drive lighting design.

Measuring Light Pollution - How New Technology is Making it Possible. Cindy Foster-Warthen
25 years after the term “light pollution” was coined, we still have a hard time understanding what it is. Measuring it is difficult and metrics to describe it are still being developed. Innovative techniques like all-sky imaging and high dynamic range photography are finally making it possible to accurately measure night sky brightness and glare. International Space Station and satellite imagery is also being used to measure global sky brightness and document trends in its proliferation. This session will demonstrate how to measure different aspects of light pollution and examine the metrics that have been developed to quantify it.

While light levels may be objectively measured, how we perceive light is entirely subjective. Light affects us on a primal emotional level. On a biological level, our brains are hardwired for long nights huddled around camp fires. More than just cycles of light and dark, color temperatures tied to the sun’s appearance at high noon and sunrise/sunset play a central role in regulating our body’s biochemistry. How light affects us changes throughout the course of our lives, can be culturally dependent and is ultimately, entirely personal. In order to illicit the desired emotional response, a lighting designer needs to be able to make choices about where, when, and what kind of light to put on any given surface. These choices need to be perfectly reproducible but also flexible and able to adapt to changes in ambient conditions and space usage requirements. This is what a lighting control system does. Designing a lighting control can be hard. Yes, it requires a thorough understanding of the technology, but that is not what makes it hard. What makes it hard is understanding how best to apply the technology within the context of the entirety of the job. What does the system need to be able to do, both now and in the future? How, and by whom, is the system is going to be used on a daily basis? What sort of special events, overrides and/or automatic triggers may help the space achieve the client’s desired level of efficiency? First and foremost, have you guaranteed that someone with no formal training or experience can easily turn on the lights? And what about the budget? It is easy to assume that hard means expensive. While that may be true for certain projects, it is by no means universally true. As I mentioned above, the difficult part is developing the detailed narrative. The actual equipment and installation required may not be very expensive in the scheme of your project. In fact, part of good design involves finding elegant solutions that streamline parts, pieces and installation requirements. A well designed system, tailored for your project and your needs, should cost less than a generic system capable of “doing it all.” Often, after careful analysis, a basic time clock and some presets may be all that a project needs. Make controls parts of your initial design conversation. They may not seem glamorous, but they give life to your design. They are the first thing your client experiences when they enter the space and the last thing they touch when they leave.

The NSF Engineering Research Center for Smart Lighting is developing intelligent controls and autonomous lighting systems that provide high-quality tunable illumination that adapts to human needs and environmental changes to enhance occupants’ performance, health and well-being. We introduce new sensing capabilities that allow lighting systems to detect and respond to changes in their environment, both in terms of a room’s illumination and the activities of its occupants. A key aspect of our approach is occupancy sensing and activity estimation using low-resolution distance sensors, which produce results comparable to cameras while preserving the occupants’ privacy. Knowing the occupants’ locations and activities allows our advanced control algorithms to deliver optimized lighting to any situation with minimal human intervention: “The Right Light, When and Where You Need It”. In addition, lighting will provide increased bandwidth for high-speed data access via illumination-integrated visible light communications. We will also discuss extensions of our smart lighting framework to broader contexts in which rooms react intelligently to their occupants, including advanced cognitive, immersive environments and integration with HVAC systems.

LEDs are finally coming into their own: multiple manufacturers have created solutions using tunable white light for architectural applications. However, these solutions are as diverse as the problems they solve. In order for tunable white to be effectively applied in this wide arena of vertical markets we first need to understand the limitations and capabilities of the technologies and controls, as well as the metrics that describe them. We explore first-hand some application examples in the health-care, retail, and art industries with some award-winning lighting designers to help understand that the best fit may be not be a "one-size fits all". Or is it?

This is a presentation that I put together for a group of building design professionals who has heard about - but knew very little about - the Rise and Rise of the LED.
LED is an acronym for Light Emitting Diode
Instead of a filament they use a semiconductor diode which emits narrow-spectrum light.
Depending on the composition & condition of the semiconducting material used (Silicone, germanium), they come in either Infrared for sensing heat, Visible for every day use, or Near-Ultraviolet for spotting stains at a crime-scene.
An LED consists of a chip of semiconducting material that has been “doped” with impurities in order to create a p-n junction.
A p-n junction is basically a junction between an anode and a cathode.
Current flows easily from the p-side to the n-side, but never in the reverse order.
The wavelength and color of the LED depends on the band-gap energy of the materials forming the p-n junction.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

• Specular monitors will create need for less brightness on surfaces,
and less intensity from luminaires.
• Lumens per watt will degraded in importance to only describe
general service lamps, such as A lamps.
• Sustainable design will increase the use of task lighting, increase
attention to how vertical surfaces are illuminated and decrease the
quantity and intensity of ambient luminaires.
• Artificial ceiling grids, and light boxes to fill them, will be less
common. Luminaires will follow the trend.

• The next 5-10 years will see the greatest creativity in luminaire design.
• New form factors, made possible by LED board designs, will allow
the development of new fixture forms.
• This will merge with best practice that spends less material and
energy on lighting interior air.
• Luminaires will be smaller in scale, and will focus on lighting surfaces.
When that lighting fixture
Is placed into that building,
It is possible to project
That the lighting fixture will last
A long, long time
It may very well be expected
That the luminaire will last
As long as the facility lasts.
In our world, some parts will fail before other parts.
Even if you drive the LED at a lower power to get a lower temperature, as noted in the opening, in the Real World, something might break sometime.
What is the client going to do about it?
Shocking, but true, some products are not built to be serviced in the field. But lets imagine a world where no one would ever specify a throw-away fixture. implies the potential for failure at any point, say at 1,000 hours, or 4,000, or 6,000. Sometimes things just break.
And the driver needs to be accessible from inside the fixture as well.
You would think the National Electric Code would require this, wouldn't’t you?
But they don’t, it is on the back of the specifier to investigate.
And it is up to the owner to figure out what part needs to be serviced, and how to get the part, because remember they cant call Their Wholesale Electrical Supplier to get the answer.
Even when the led fixture manufacture has the ability and commitment to accomplish this, the end-user must have a straight-forward way to identify the exact board in the existing fixture.
Some use bar codes (bring your own scanner), some use labels, just make sure that something was used!
If these cannot be easily and
Successfully addressed,
Are we ready to specify a whole generation of fixtures that
End up here?
Data indicates LED temp at 55 degree, driver case temperature at 33 degree,
driver life at 170K hr.
This is actually the case temperature as measured by the manufacture of the driver.
But what happens if the LED juncture temperature is higher?
Well, the only thing
LED temp at 85 degree, driver case temp at??
driver life at ???
Don’t be surprised if the answer is 40K hr.
The biggest elephant in the room is driver life, and it is a direct correlation to Heat, and the Heat is coming from the LED, and the place deep within the LED where this heat is generated is called what?
Yes!
The Juncture
Yes, like the setting sun.
But unlike the sun, which setting is really
The constant and predictable revolution of
Our planet,
The LED sunset is directly related to how hot things
Get in that energy exchange juncture.
In fact, to even predict the fade rate over time,
The industry established a test process so that the juncture
Temperature could be established.
And, as you now know,
The hotter it gets in there,
The faster that little LED is going towards the sunset.
Nothing really new under the sun
In the beginning,
There was fire.
And fire was heat,
And the heat was good.
Except that, the fire burned out the heat,
And the light was gone.
Our first experience that light and heat have a relationship over time.
Gas Is just another kind of fire.
The brighter you burn it,
The hotter it gets, the quicker the fuel runs out.
End of light!
Incandescent light is metal glowing
As it is heated through resistance of an electrical flow of energy
Eventually, the metal looses enough atoms
Through burning up, that the filament breaks.
Fluorescent uses two sources to emit light.
A high voltage arc stream is sent from one end of the tube
To the other end.
That excites a small amount of mercury to emit electrons
Which in turn strike the phosphorescent coating that is on the inside of the tube,
And light is emitted.
But, like the incandescent filament,
When the metal tips at the end of the tube
Looses too much material, they fail.
Once again, the light is gone.
But,
LED’s exhibit a different path.
An exchange of electrons flows from a positively charged material
To a negatively charged material.
In the process of the electron exchange, a particle of light, a photon,
Is emitted.
Each of these sources exhibit the end of their life in different ways.
Fire, of course, burns out
The question is, how long will the light source last?
Yes, you can double the previous numbers, but remember, the context is this: what is the anticipated light loss at 100,000 hours?
As a unit of data, lumens are a relative term.
That is, you can compare how many lumens one source creates, to the lumen package of a second source.
But lumens don’t tell you lemons about light coming from a luminaire.
No discussion of lighting quality makes any sense without the context of the task.
This applies to buying groceries, raking leaves, and anything else you can think of.
So it is mission critical to consider the task which uses a monitor for information display.
Computers and monitors, what else?
To have an informed discussion with your client, you need to know what kind of monitor they expect to use.
What are the differences?
The International Standards Organization, aligned with the Canadian Standards Authority, or as we more popularly know them, ISO-CSA, have established three broad metrics for monitor screen reflective characteristics, and two definitions of screen contrast.
You need to know this information:
Imatte
IIsemi-diffuse
IIIspecular
And contrast,
Positivelight background
Negativedarker background
Why is this important to the lighting community?
Because of how light impacts the “see-ability” of the information on the task surface, that is, the screen surface.
