Reducing light pollution is a growing priority worldwide

The Dialight StreetSENSE fixtures combine precision optics with the latest in advanced LED technology to provide highly effective, energy-efficient, focused exterior lighting for roadways, parking lots, walkways and bike paths. The StreetSENSE Type II forward-throw LED luminaires, with their IDA compliant reflector design, prevent direct glare and deliver high quality, precisely directed illumination downward where it’s needed, virtually eliminating upward light pollution and lateral light trespass.

“Reducing light pollution is a growing priority worldwide, and exterior lighting, including streetlights, are a major part of the problem,” added Burton. “Getting IDA certification for our products reinforces our position as a leading provider of environmentally sustainable lighting products that can help governments and municipalities cost-effectively combat light pollution. We intend to secure certification for our other outdoor lighting products in the coming months.”

A custom LED testing installation from light metrology industry leader, Labsphere, has been chosen by the Shanghai Research Centre of Engineering and Technology for Solid-State Lighting for its LED life measurement lab. The Institute supplies LED testing services to local manufacturers of solid state lighting. The powerful system is the first of its kind in China, with potential to become the national standard in LED testing.
