Melatonin is considered to be an important hormone for sound sleep and circadian regulation. It had firstly been found to be suppressed by high intensity light (2500lx) about 30 years ago then recent studies suggested it could be suppressed by household indoor lighting as well. In this report, a lower color temperature fluorescent lighting (2300K) than general products is introduced based on recently discovered action spectrum. It was proved to have less impact on melatonin secretion than 3000K and 5000K under same illuminance condition. Considering wavelength constitution will be more important in next generation lighting represented by LED.

Visible light communications (VLC) is the latest optical wireless communications technology that uses low-power light emitting diodes, or LEDs, not only to provide light but also to broadcast data. LEDs are extremely energy-efficient and predicted to become widespread in general lighting application. Because LED is a solid-state lighting device, it can be modulated at high-speed compared with other lighting sources. VLC uses LEDs, which send data by flashing light at speeds undetectable to the human eye. Widespread use of LEDs in traffic applications and growing interest in Intelligent Transport System (ITS) presents an opportunity for VLC. Data transmission using LED traffic lights, LED road illumination, and LED brake lights are typical application. In this paper, an on-going research, road-to-vehicle visible light communication, will be introduced. The LED array, assumed to be an LED traffic light, is used as a transmitter and it sends data to a moving vehicle. By providing data together with a traffic signal that is visible to a driver, a safety driving support can be realized. Finally, the author suggests readers a glimpse of wealth on "dual use of LEDs" and concludes the paper.

Which lighting attributes determine the brightness of a room space? We considered the perceived strength of the light source and the perceived amount of light in the space as potential determinants. We examined the relations between the actual brightness of the space and these two perceptions. In the first experiment, subjects evaluated the strength of the light source and the amount of light in the space using reference matching method. The results were consistent among the subjects, indicating they judged each of the two lighting attributes by some common criteria. In the second experiment, the brightness of the space, the strength of the light source, and the amount of light in the space of a model box were evaluated using the magnitude estimation method under various illumination conditions. We found that the brightness of the space was closely correlated with the perceived amount of light but not with the perceived strength of the light source. These results should prove useful in constructing a model for quantitatively estimating the brightness of a space.

We statistically studied several problems related to critical flicker fusion frequency (CFF), which was used to design the interlaced scanning method of television systems. Since CFF values closely depend on the physical and mental state of the observer, statistical treatment of data is essential. We studied the difference between up and down discrimination threshold series and the coincidence between CFF values for equal energy colors, mainly by adapting a variance method analysis.

Daylight is composed of direct sunlight and skylight. Skylight is direct sunlight and light reflected from the earth's surface that have been scattered by the atmosphere and clouds. The correlated color temperature (CCT) of daylight varies hourly, and the CCT of skylight varies extensively due to changes in the spectral alvedo of the earth's surface, the solar altitude and the angular distance from the sun to a sky component, the atmospheric transmittance of visible radiation and the amount of cloud. This paper discusses causes of variations and local differences of skylight CCT and proposes a formula for skylight CCT as a function of cloud amount.
