Evaluation of Illuminance Provided by the Intelligent Lighting System in Actual Office

摘要

In our laboratory, lighting control system targeting office environment called Intelligent Lighting System has been proposed. Intelligent Lighting system is not the existing lighting system that provides uniform illuminance, but it can individually provide different illuminance depending on a worker's work content and preference. Presently, prototype Intelligent Lighting Systems are introduced to some office buildings to conduct demonstration experiment for commercialization. Illuminance condition of areas where illuminance sensors were installed is achieved in the demonstration experiment, and it was confirmed that each worker can work comfortably with illuminance they selected. However, illuminance of the entire room provided by Intelligent Lighting System had not been reviewed. Evaluation by illuminance distribution is also important for Intellectual Lighting System since it provides different illuminance to workers. Therefore, this study mentions evaluation of illuminance provided by Intelligent Lighting System in actual office environment by using the system which can measure illuminance distribution.
