| Abstract |
Experiments were carried out to find out how lighting could help secure the visibility of drivers in bad weather. The laboratory is equipped with a device that can produce weather conditions, and a sensor is installed to quantify the weather conditions. On three different weather conditions, on the dry road surface, the wet road surface, and the fog situation, Counter, Down, and Pro were combined to obtain 3,000K and 5,000K 6,500K three color temperature conditions. The results of previous experiments [1] did not show exactly what effect the driver's visibility had on securing the driver's performance. The numerical data of the previous experiment and the data obtained through the survey showed the same pattern. In all situations, Pro beam at 3,000K color temperature was found to be the best in securing visibility for the driver. Future experiments will be conducted on actual roads, not laboratory scale, and based on the data obtained through Field Test, we will establish a lighting method that is favorable to drivers in bad weather. |
