Abstract Highway tunnel lighting environments include sidewall, pavement, ceiling, etc., their surface luminance were affected by the distribution of luminous flux of the lamps. While driving through a highway tunnel, the driver needs to complete a series of visual tasks. The spatial distribution of the luminance and color on the road surface and sidewall, as well as the correlated color temperature, influence the driver’s visual performance. The process of driving through a highway tunnel lighting environment was simulated in a laboratory where the luminance of the non-uniform visual environment was gradually decreased. The effects of the spatial distribution of the lighting environment parameters on a driver’s visual performance was studied by testing each subject’s reaction times and missed target rates. The tests showed that the spatial distribution of the lighting environment parameters significantly influences a driver’s visual performance, and the effects on test subjects’ peripheral visual performance are different in threshold, transition, and interior zones. The optimization of the spatial distribution of the lighting environment parameters can enhance traffic safety and energy saving of highway tunnel lighting.

隧道照明环境对驾驶员瞬态适应过程中周边视觉表现的影响

摘要 公路隧道照明环境包括侧壁、路面、天花板等，其表面亮度受灯具光通量分布的影响。在通过高速公路隧道时，驾驶员需要完成一系列视觉任务。路面和侧壁上亮度和颜色的空间分布以及相关色温会影响驾驶员的视觉表现。在实验室中模拟通过高速公路隧道照明环境的过程，其中非均匀视觉环境的亮度逐渐降低。通过测试每个受试者的反应时间和未命中目标率，研究了照明环境参数的空间分布对驾驶员视觉表现的影响。测试表明，照明环境参数的空间分布对驾驶员的视觉表现有显着影响，对被测者周边视觉表现的影响在阈值、过渡区和内部区域各不相同。优化照明环境参数的空间分布可以增强公路隧道照明的交通安全和节能。
