👉 Lighting engineering is the specialized field that focuses on the design, installation, and maintenance of lighting systems to optimize visual comfort, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal in various environments. It involves the application of electrical, optical, and architectural principles to create lighting solutions that meet specific functional and design requirements. Key aspects include selecting appropriate light sources (such as LEDs, fluorescent, or incandescent), designing lighting layouts to ensure even illumination and minimize glare, integrating control systems for dimming and automation, and ensuring compliance with safety standards and energy-efficient practices. Lighting engineers also consider the impact of lighting on human health, circadian rhythms, and the overall ambiance of spaces, balancing technical performance with creative expression.
