In recent years electronics has had an impact on almost every aspect of lamps and lighting from escape lighting to son et lumière, from reduction of gear losses to reduction of flicker, from tunnel lighting to theatre lighting, from automobile lighting to automation of lamp making machinery. Electronics is helping safety with hazard warning lights, automatically compensated tunnel lighting and measuring equipment to correlate street lighting with road accidents. The use of electronic ignitors to start high intensity discharge lamps assists energy conservation and reduces the material content of the control gear while invertor operated fluorescent tubes for transport lighting has to meet stringent requirements on transients.
