LTM - Adaptive lighting: sensor to measure luminance, traffic, meteo conditions
Equipment for real-time measurement of the road luminance, traffic and weather conditions at night, installed at the roadside.
The sensor LTM, using the latest technologies in the field of computer vision, is capable of measuring the luminance level of the road monitored, according to standard UNI 11248 and CEN 13201-3 part 3, the flow of the night traffic present, in terms of vehicles / hour, and evaluate the typical weather debilitating conditions (dry, wet, fog, snow).
Through the measurement of luminance, it is possible to adjust lighting, to obtain on the road the exact value required by current standard, regardless of external conditions that can modify the same, as the state and the deterioration of the asphalt / cleaning of lamps and luminaires.
The sensor LTM integrates very simply in Reverberi or Opera control systems, functioning as a device of the DIM. All the information can be easily acquired from the remote control system OPERA.
The sensor LTM can be provided as a simple sensor of traffic, but can be lately upgraded to luminance and meteo detection, just modifying the software inside.
Compared to the traditional preprogrammed time cycles, the sensor has shown, in the tests, to be able to add an additional 50% energy savings to what is already obtainable with conventional control systems. The result is very influenced by the parameters that you choose to be programmed in decision-making algorithm.
It also considerably improves safety, because the dimming depends on the weather conditions at that time and with real-time traffic. Options are also available to communicate by WifiWireless or RS 485 with external systems
