Optimizing Classroom Lighting: Balancing Illuminance Uniformity and Glare Control with Led Technology

Indoor lighting environment significantly impacts students’ concentration and learning performance. Optimal lighting conditions enhance reading speed, accuracy, and comprehension abilities. In contrast, poor lighting conditions may lead to decreased concentration and increased errors in tasks. Therefore, classroom lighting is an important factor to consider in classroom design to optimize cognitive efficiency of students. Current classroom lighting solutions using LED systems have met European Norm (EN) standard in terms of illuminance and energy efficiency. However, although the issue of glare has been addressed, it has not been completely resolved. This study introduces a solution for glare-free classroom lighting that maintains uniformity while adhering to existing standards. This approach aims to create a visually comfortable learning environment, balancing effective lighting with glare reduction.
