27-29 May 2009, Budapest, Hungary

In May 2009 the Light and Lighting Conference took place in conjunction with the CIE Midterm Meeting. The conference dealt with all aspects of light and lighting, with special emphasis on LEDs and Solid State Lighting, covering vision and health as well as the measurement of these modern devices and their application.

From the large number of oral and poster presentations in the scientific program of the conference 24 papers were selected by CIE experts for this CIE publication. These selected papers cover the whole range of the conference topics, i.e. latest achievements obtained in light and lighting, their consequences in photometry and colorimetry, their health aspects, and applications, both indoor and outdoor.

Description

In March 2010 the Lighting Quality & Energy Efficiency Conference took place in Vienna, Austria. The event gave academics, lighting industry professionals, designers, researchers and representatives of regulatory authorities the opportunity to discuss best practice and the latest developments in the field of light and illumination. Recommendations were also made for reducing the amount of energy used for lighting. One of the hottest topics at the conference was light emitting diodes (LEDs), which offer significant environmental and energy-efficiency benefits compared with conventional light bulbs and energysaving lamps.

The Proceedings of this Conference include invited papers and contributed papers as well as papers on the poster presentations.
