    The light from a 150 W PAR46 sealed-beam lamp in these "programmable visibility" signals passes through a set of two glass lenses at the back of the signal. The first lens, a frosted glass diffusing lens, diffuses the light into a uniform ball of light around five inches in diameter.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_communication

    Signal lamps (such as Aldis lamps), are visual signaling devices for optical communication (typically using Morse code). Modern signal lamps are a focused lamp which can produce a pulse of light. In large versions this pulse is achieved by opening and closing shutters mounted in front of the lamp, either via a manually operated pressure switch ...

    In New Zealand, where traffic is on the left, when a road is given a green light from an all-direction stop, a red arrow can continue to display to turning traffic, holding traffic back while a pedestrian crossing on the side road is given a green signal (for left turns) or while oncoming traffic goes straight ahead and there is no permissive right turn allowed (for right turns).

    Signal lamp training during World War II. A signal lamp (sometimes called an Aldis lamp or a Morse lamp [1]) is a visual signaling device for optical communication by flashes of a lamp, typically using Morse code. The idea of flashing dots and dashes from a lantern was first put into practice by Captain Philip Howard Colomb, of the Royal Navy ...

    A modulation is the form in which the light signal varies in order to represent different symbols. In order for the data to be decoded. Unlike radio transmission, a VLC modulation requires the light signal to be modulated around a positive dc value, responsible for the lighting aspect of the lamp. The modulation will thus be an alternating ...

    Signal lights may refer to: Traffic light, signal lights controlling automotive & pedestrian traffic flow; Turn signals, signal lights indicating automotive change of direction; Railway signalling, use of signal lights to control train traffic flow; Signal lamp, a device for communicating between ships with flashing lights.

  8. Kerosene lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerosene_lamp

    Flat-wick lamps have the lowest light output, center-draft round-wick lamps have 3–4 times the output of flat-wick lamps, and pressurized lamps have higher output yet; the range is from 8 to 100 lumens. A kerosene lamp producing 37 lumens for 4 hours per day for a month (120 hours) consumes about 3 litres (6.3 US pt; 5.3 imp pt) of kerosene.

  9. Solid-state lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid-state_lighting

    Solid-state lighting (SSL) is a type of lighting that uses semiconductor light-emitting diodes (LEDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), or polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED) as sources of illumination rather than electrical filaments, plasma (used in arc lamps such as fluorescent lamps), or gas.
