Concept and implementation of adaptive road lighting concurrent with vehicles

Abstract

The paper presents the authors' concept of an adaptive road lighting that is concurrent with vehicles moving on roads. The lighting system is based on luminaires with light emitting diodes. The authors describe the operation of the adaptive road lighting system and point out benefits and limitations of the solution. The theoretical considerations are supported by an analysis of the installed and working system that was implemented at Bozeny street in Poznan, Poland. The system was also evaluated by the residents living near the street.
