Project #51: Emergency lighting for low visibility spaces

Back

Description:

 

In this project, our primary objective is to conduct an in-depth study of emergency lighting systems tailored for installation in low-visibility spaces. The successful execution of this project will necessitate extensive literature review, DIALux simulations, and rigorous engineering evaluation efforts. These critical components are essential for comprehending existing knowledge, leveraging advanced simulations, and conducting thorough engineering analyses to enhance our understanding of emergency lighting in environments with limited visibility.

As part of our investigative approach, there will be instances where the creation of photometric files becomes imperative. These files will play a crucial role in validating and confirming the viability of novel concepts and ideas within the realm of emergency lighting design. Through the utilization of photometric files, we aim to ensure the practicality and effectiveness of innovative approaches in low-visibility scenarios.

Additionally, the project acknowledges the potential need for prototyping in certain cases. Prototyping offers a hands-on methodology for testing and refining emergent ideas, contributing to the practical implementation and improvement of emergency lighting systems. This consideration reflects our commitment to exploring diverse avenues and methodologies to enhance the overall effectiveness and reliability of emergency lighting solutions.
