Integrates Vehicle, Signal, and Road Lighting into a Unified System
Many people drive many miles after dark and rely on lighting to
help them gather information about the road ahead and the presence
and intentions of other people on and near the road. With new
technology on the industry's horizon, Lighting for Driving: Roads,
Vehicle, Signs and Signals conveys the crucial role lighting plays
in road safety and examines how it could be used more effectively.
Authored by a lighting and visibility expert, this book explains
the thinking and scientific reasoning behind various forms of
lighting and analyzes their contribution to the driver's
understanding of real and potential road hazards. Filled with
useful information, this resource straightforwardly addresses a
wide range of safety factors encountered in real driving
situations, such as weather conditions, complex signage, and driver
age. It also deals with the often-ignored consequences of too much
light, such as light trespass and sky glow. Comprehensively
Explores the Field, Emphasizing Improved Safety Vehicle, road,
sign, and signal lighting are provided to enable drivers to reach
their destinations quickly and safely. However, the attention given
to how these forms of lighting function is likely to change as new
technology is introduced and understanding of ergonomics and human
factors improves. This book effectively illustrates how these forms
of lighting can be modified to work together to best provide a
coherent flow of information to the driver.
