Development and Application of Instructional LED Lighting Measurement Equipment

[[abstract]]隨著LED封裝技術日益成熟與高功?LED的出現，未來使用LED作為主要光源的產 品將成為市場主流。LED光源特性與傳統光源差異甚大，但多數廠商仍採用舊有設計模 式，並不適合LED光源應用。因此，為了提升未來我國在LED照明市場實力與保有創新 技術，必須積極培育LED照明技術相關人才。 本計畫提出「LED 照明量測設備教具開發與應用」，目標鎖定光機電相關科系大學 三年級以上學生，從原理、設計到應用開設理論與實作兼具之課程。目前國內各大學光 機電科系的課程規劃，對於 LED照明相關課程的比例偏低，也缺乏針對 LED照明專科 的測量設備，加上相關設備價格高昂，不易建構實習教學環境，因此教師授課主要以課 堂教學進行，實作資源不足造成學生大多缺乏現場經驗，導致學生就業後無法將理論基 礎與實務應用相互結合。本研究團隊擬開發低成本 LED照明系統量測設備，並規劃相關 修業課程，利用低價的基礎光學測量儀器建構 LED照明測量系統，學生在修課過程除了 學習基礎知識，在實作課程可透過親自動手裝配設備，了解各種測量設備的特性與用 法，實測所得數據可再利用光學模擬軟體在電腦上重現，並進行後續設計，透過完整課 程規劃讓學生獲得完整學習，未來學生進入職場就業可快速銜接，提升企業用人信心。[[abstract]]Following the advances in light-emitting diode (LED) packaging technology and the emergence of high power LEDs, LEDs as the primary source of lighting will inevitably become mainstream. The characteristics of LED lights are distinct from those of traditional lights. However, most manufacturers continue to use outdated design models that are unsuitable for LED application. Therefore, to enhance national competitiveness in the LED light market and retain innovative technologies, Taiwan must actively cultivate experts in LED lighting technologies. This study proposes the Development and Application of Instructional LED Lighting Measurement Equipment project to provide a theoretical and practical course comprising theory, design, and application for third-year and advanced university students in electro-optical engineering, photonics, or related departments. Currently, few such university departments conduct courses related to LED lighting, and they often lack instructional LED lighting measurement equipment. Because the equipment is expensive, training resources are insufficient, and it is difficult to establish instructional environments for practical training, teachers primarily adopt classroom instructional methods, resulting in students lacking practical experience. Thus, graduates cannot link theory to practical applications. This study involved developing low-cost LED lighting measurement equipment and designing related courses by using inexpensive basic optical equipment to construct an LED lighting measurement system, allowing students to learn fundamental knowledge and understand the characteristics and use of various instruments by participating in practical courses and assembling equipment. Measurement data can be reproduced on a computer screen by using optical simulation software to undertake subsequent designs. A complete course design enables students to acquire comprehensive knowledge and experiences, facilitating their future transition into the job market and enhancing the confidence enterprises hold in their employees.[[note]]NSC102-2511-S327-00
