Overview
Smart lighting simulation covers adaptive street lighting, horticultural lighting, tunable white systems, and human-centric lighting design — modelling light distribution, spectral power, colour rendering, and energy efficiency. By coupling spectral ray tracing with circadian metrics (MEDI) and horticultural metrics (PPFD), our engineers design LED luminaires that achieve optimal biological effect and energy efficiency — reducing commissioning iterations and ensuring regulatory compliance with EN 13201 and similar standards.

Key Aspects
Optimising the spectral power distribution of multi-channel LED luminaires — balancing colour rendering index (CRI), colour temperature, and energy efficiency for the target application.
Computing PPFD (Photosynthetic Photon Flux Density) distribution over crop canopies — designing LED grow light fixtures to achieve uniform, target PPFD with minimum energy consumption.
Evaluating melanopic equivalent daylight illuminance (MEDI) and its circadian stimulus effect — designing tunable white lighting systems that support alertness and sleep cycles.
Computing illuminance uniformity and glare rating (UGR) for road and area lighting to EN 13201 standards — optimising luminaire type, mounting height, and spacing.
