Development of an Illumination Measurement Device for Color Distribution Based on a CIE 1931 XYZ Sensor

Abstract

In this paper, an easy-to-use measurement device for illumination distribution is developed. The device consists of a sensor array module, a control module, and a PC interface. The sensor array module incorporates CIE 1931 color sensors and the ARM-based 96 MHz microcontroller in the control module for measurement and data processing. The sensor array module contains 64 color sensors arranged in a 16 × 4 array. The sensitivity of the sensor array module can be adjusted depending on the illumination level to be measured. The measurement data and control signals are exchanged via USB 2.0 standard. To demonstrate the performance of the device, the illumination distribution is measured for colors of red, green, and blue and is graphically shown. The device can be used for measurement of the illumination distribution, design and adjustment of LED illumination.

Multi-coded Variable PPM for High Data Rate Visible Light Communications

“…In addition, LEDs are used not only for illumination but also for many products such as monitors, cell phones, cars, and others. Recently, there have been many attempts to converge LED with IT technology [2,3]. Among them, Visible Light Communication (VLC), which is the convergence of illumination and communication, has emerged [4][5][6].…”

Error Reduction Approach for Performance Improvement in CSK Systems

“…LEDs are used not only for illumination but also for many products such as monitors and TV, smart phones, cars, and others. In recent years, many attempts to LED convergence of IT technology have been made [1], [2]. A fusion of communication and lighting, visible light communication (VLC) has emerged among them [3].…”
