SWIR technology has long been used for a vast multitude of applications because of its distinct features. Included in these are civil applications (solar cell inspection, bottling plant inspection, fruit inspection, fire fighting, etc.) and military applications (laser guiding systems, camouflage detection, surveillance, night vision, boarder monitoring, etc.). The principle advantages...

This article addresses the advantages and benefits of Human Centric Lighting, which implies that mostly the intensity and colour temperature of the light source can be adjusted to benefit human health. This is superior to fixed colour temperature lighting fixtures due to better suitability to the internal 24 hour human...

In a previous article, the role of LED illumination in green-house environments for growth of crops were discussed. The ability to colour blend various LED sources to match the Photosynthetic absorption curve of different crops and also change intensity levels for each wavelength for maximum productivity, are big advantages that...

Over the past decade, LED technology has experienced significant advancements, and as a result LED lighting has been increasingly adopted. In order to determine a good luminous environment when employing LED lighting, it is suggested that Gamut Area Index (GAI) be used as a measurement. In principle, GAI is usually...

This article attempts to answer the following questions: 1.      What is the use of CIE (International Commission on Illumination) diagram (1931 and 1976), and the meaning of Colour Rendering Index (R a ) in the present CIE standard? 2.      Why there is a need to change to a...

In recent years, LED technology has advanced greatly. As such, an increasing number of people in the Television and Film industry are utilizing LED lighting as it is both long lasting and energy efficient compared to traditional lighting technologies. However, when compared to traditional incandescent light sources, LED lighting can...

Horticulture is the branch of agriculture that deals with science, art, technology and business of plant cultivation. Role of light illumination for plant growth is an important factor that needs to be considered and improved. The Photosynthesis process in plants uses water, carbon dioxide intake and incident light as the...

* *HERE’S HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE* * Today I want to talk about LEDs and CRI. You see not all LEDs were created equal. Most of the time when we talk about LEDs we talk brightness and color temperature, and that makes sense as those are easily measured and...
