The lighting system in a sport facility is a crucial element for the success of sports activity. In this work, the development of an innovative procedure, for the in situ measurements of vertical illuminance in fencing halls, is described and discussed. The measurement procedure has been obtained from a detailed analysis of the game phases of a fencing competition, considering the assessment of the visual conditions of both opponents. The procedure allows to obtain measurement results that can be compared with the requirements fixed by the technical standards and can be used for the evaluation of the adequacy of the lighting system with respect to the athletes' main visual tasks.

Abstract

The lighting system in a sport facility is a crucial element for the success of sports activity. In this work, the development of an innovative procedure, for the in situ measurements of vertical illuminance in fencing halls, is described and discussed. The measurement procedure has been obtained from a detailed analysis of the game phases of a fencing competition, considering the assessment of the visual conditions of both opponents. The procedure allows to obtain measurement results that can be compared with the requirements fixed by the technical standards and can be used for the evaluation of the adequacy of the lighting system with respect to the athletes' main visual tasks.
