Sunrin showcases low-level streetlights for visual guidance

Sunrin is using Intertraffic to promote its Aton and Luna low-level mounting streetlights which are installed one meter above ground and are said to have generated energy savings of up to 50%. These devices are designed with the intention of reducing glare from wet road surface as well as minimising eye fatigue among drivers. Additionally, the restricted light on the surface of the road aims to reduce light pollution created by artificial lights while providing visual guidance of the road contour.

Sunrin is using Intertraffic to promote its Aton and Luna low-level mounting streetlights which are installed one meter above ground and are said to have generated energy savings of up to 50%.


These devices are designed with the intention of reducing glare from wet road surface as well as minimising eye fatigue among drivers.

Additionally, the restricted light on the surface of the road aims to reduce light pollution created by artificial lights while providing visual guidance of the road contour.

The flat and square bar type optical system aims to delivers controlled light distribution without a huge recessed reflector. It can be used in foggy and accident-prone areas as well as bridge areas, intersections and ramp sections.

Traffic flow does not need to be restricted during the installation of the system, according to Sunrin.

    With poor urban air quality shortening lives and fines being imposed for breaching pollution limits, authorities are seeking ways to clean up their cities. Poor air quality is topping the agenda for city authorities across the globe. In the UK, for example, a report from the Royal Colleges of Physicians and of Paediatrics and Child Health, concluded that poor outdoor air quality shortens the lives of around 40,000 people a year – principally by undermining the health of people with heart and/or lung prob

Fifty years on from its invention of the microchip, US company Texas Instruments (TI) has compressed the technology into a surface area of just 4.3mm. As such, it forms the heart of a new Pico Digital Light Processing (DLP) system that is set to transform travel information delivery for millions of users on the move - by making it projectable.

    The world’s ageing population requires more attention to be paid to the needs of older, and sometimes not that old, drivers – particularly when it comes to lighting. For instance the minimum amount of light a person needs to see doubles every decade after they are 25, so a 75-year old may need 32 times the illumination level as somebody a third of their age. It would seem logical that street lighting and car designers would consider their work from other road users’ point of view but empirical evidence appe
