Experiment uses smart city lighting to measure streetlight emissions
When satellites take pictures of Earth at night, how much of the light that they see comes from streetlights? A team of scientists from Germany, the U.S., and Ireland have answered this question for the first time, thanks to "smart city" lighting technology that allows cities to dim their lights. The results were published today in the journal Lighting Research & Technology.
The team conducted an experiment by changing the brightness of streetlights in the city of Tucson, Arizona, U.S., and observing how this changed how bright the city appeared from space. Dr. Christopher Kyba from the GFZ German Research Center for Geosciences led the team that conducted the experiment, and said the work is important because it shows that smart city technologies can be used to perform city-scale experiments.
"When sensors and control systems are installed throughout an entire city, it makes it possible to make a change in how the city works, and then measure the impact that change has on the environment, even from outer space," Kyba said.
Over 10 days in March and April of 2019, Tucson officials changed the brightness settings for about 14,000 of the city's 19,500 streetlights. Usually, most streetlights in Tucson start out at 90 percent of their maximum possible illumination, and dim to 60 percent at midnight. During the experiment, the city instead dimmed lights all the way down to 30 percent on some nights, and brightened them up to 100 percent on others.
The city lights were observed by the US-operated Suomi National Pol

Zero Blockage at Intersections: Optimized Traffic Signal System Enhances Urban Road Efficiency
A groundbreaking transformation has taken place in Chinese cities with the comprehensive upgrade of traffic signal systems, achieving the ambitious goal of zero blockage at intersections. Through the implementation of coordinated optimization technology, the traffic signal system now intelligently adjusts intersection traffic flow, significantly enhancing the efficiency of urban roadways and mitigating congestion at intersections.
The traditional traffic signal systems, with fixed timing patterns, often led to inefficient traffic flow, especially during peak hours. The optimized system, on the other hand, dynamically adjusts signal timings based on real-time traffic conditions. This adaptability allows for a smoother traffic flow, reducing delays and enhancing overall urban mobility.
The key to the success of this upgraded system lies in its ability to communicate with other signals in the vicinity. Through interconnected communication, signals work together to create a harmonized traffic flow at intersections. This cooperative approach prevents the typical stop-and-go pattern, leading to a reduction in fuel consumption, emissions, and overall travel time.
The impact of this coordinated optimization extends beyond just traffic efficiency; it positively influences the safety of intersections. By minimizing congestion and reducing the likelihood of sudden stops, the system contributes to a safer driving experience. This is particularly crucial at busy intersections where quick and decisive movements are essential for avoiding accidents.
Moreover, the optimized traffic signal system embraces a data-driven approach. It continuously collects and analyzes data o

Talk about the history of traffic signal light pole and the mainstream of modern design
In modern cities, population and cars are growing day by day, urban traffic is becoming more and more congested, and people's safety is becoming more and more important. Therefore, red and green traffic signal poles have become one of the important things for traffic management departments to manage traffic. With traffic lights, people's safe travel has a great guarantee.
Since the birth of the traffic light, its internal circuit control system has been continuously improved, and the planning method has also begun to be diverse, so that the traffic light is more intelligent. Especially in recent years, with the rapid development of electronics and computer skills, electronic circuit analysis and planning methods have been greatly improved, electronic planning automation has become a modern electronic system can not lack of things and means, these for the traffic light control circuit planning provides a certain skill base.

What does the traffic light
Traffic lights (commonly known as traffic lights, LED traffic lights) green wave control method.
There are two key points in order to obtain the coordinated control of the green wave of traffic lights: the same period and the same clock.
The so-called common period refers to the intersection with the smallest traffic capacity or the intersection with the largest overall traffic load among the intersections with coordinated demand signals. The signal period after signal timing calculation is used as the common period of all intersections. Because according to the "barrel principle" of management, the intersection with the smallest traffic capacity is the bottleneck of the road or road network. If this intersection can pass traffic, other intersections must also be able to pass. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the intersection with the smallest traffic capacity has the longest signal cycle. If this cycle is used as the cycle of all intersections, no congestion will occur at other intersections.
The so-called consistent clock means that all intersections operate their respective phase timing plans according to a time reference, so as to ensure the accuracy of the phase difference of the harmonious signals between the intersections, and there will be no time drift and plan misalignment. Because the clock in each signal controller will cause time drift and harmony failure due to the unequal clock accuracy, it should be set in several intersection signal controllers that require coordination to set a master control machine to report the time consistently.

The reason why many users choose LED lamps. LED lights have the following unique advantages:
First: the service life is relatively longer
Which professional LED lamps? This is part of the content that users want to know, and whether LED lamps are professional or not, users should understand from the life of the lamps produced by the production company. Because the light source of LED lamps is called by many people as a lamp that never goes out, and the service life of this light source is relatively longer.
Second: There is a variety of variability
In today's society, many users choose to use LED lamps, precisely because the light source of this type of LED lamps uses the principle of red, green and blue three primary colors, and can also produce different colors according to the mixture, which is to a large extent It satisfies the preferences of many users, because both individuals and enterprises hope to have colorful changes in life.

Highly economical LED street lights tested in practice
Researchers of Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have developed a novel, even more economical LED street light. They replaced conventional high-performance diodes by a special array of weaker LEDs and, thus, succeeded in reducing power consumption by another 20%. As a result, CO2 emission is decreased and municipalities might save millions of power costs. Pfalzwerke Netz AG, the local utility company, for the first time equipped street lights with the new light heads in the municipality of Maxdorf, Rhineland Palatinate.
"We have succeeded again in significantly increasing the efficiency and service life of our lamps compared to conventional LEDs," says Michael Heidinger of KIT's Light Technology Institute (LTI). He designed a smart circuit that compensates aging and failure of individual light-emitting diodes. Parallel connection of a large number of LEDs is difficult, as failure of a single diode will cause failure of the complete system or section – a phenomenon known from Christmas light chains. The alternative of connecting LEDs in series also has drawbacks, as the voltage required increases with the number of diodes used. As the legally permissible contact voltage is limited to 120 volts, only up to 40 LEDs have been connected in series so far. Now, it is possible to install a large number of LEDs – 48 in the light modules used here – on a single board at low cost. Moreover, the LEDs increase safety, because the new switching concept of Heidin

Networked lighting to eliminate auto blind spots
It is a horror scenario for every driver: Suddenly, a previously invisible pedestrian comes out of the dark between two street lights or the shade of two parked cars. Researchers at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) are working on a method to optimally adapt car headlights to local conditions with the help of external sensors that may be located at the roadside or in other vehicles.
When lighting conditions blur the contrast between an object and its surroundings, experts refer to it as the "camouflage effect." The human eye cannot perceive the object under these conditions. The same applies to camera eyes of autonomous vehicles.
The "Propix" (the acronym of projector pixel light) headlight developed at KIT's Light Technology Institute (LTI) a few years ago was the point of departure of the scientists. Propix can adapt its light distribution to the environment, i.e. suppress certain areas completely, whereas others are illuminated brightly.
