Method for measuring parameters of roadway low-position lighting fixtures
An installation method for roadway low-position lighting fixtures uses parameter measurement from a dynamic visual recognition experiment. Multiple fixture sets having respective preset color temperature and color rendering index pairs, or a configurable fixture set providing multiple such pairs, are tested at predetermined luminance levels and operating speeds on a dynamic experimental road with a randomly placed target. A test vehicle includes a speed detection device, and a tested driver wears an eye-tracker. Based on eye movement indicating target recognition, an operator marks a vehicle position at recognition and a vehicle position at passing the target to obtain a recognition distance. Samples of luminance and recognition distance are collected across luminance levels, speeds, lighting environments, and drivers. A recognition-distance-luminance model is fitted to derive a luminance threshold meeting a safe sight distance requirement, and fixtures are selected and installed along both sides of the road accordingly.
