Novel optical packaging of silicon photonics emitter to optimize streetlight visual comfort
Current streetlights using LED emitters are primarily designed for efficient illumination of an area, but do not commonly consider visual comfort parameters, which are necessary to prevent glare and eye discomfort.

| Sumario: | Current streetlights using LED emitters are primarily designed for efficient illumination of an area, but do not commonly consider visual comfort parameters, which are necessary to prevent glare and eye discomfort. This report outlines the design of a streetlight that prioritizes the maximum visual comfort for pedestrians while incorporating a novel optical packaging technology for the light emitter. We present the design considerations, including visual comfort parameters and requirements, as well as the methodology used to achieve this objective. Finally, a prototype design that fulfils the specified criteria is presented. |
