When we go to some outdoor badminton courts, we often see dozens of high mast lights standing in the center of the venue or standing on the edge of the venue. They have unique shapes and attract people’s attention. Sometimes, they even become another charming landscape of the venue. But what kind of design essentials should be followed to design beautiful and practical LED high mast lights?
The design of the badminton court high mast can be said to be a combination of light, electricity, machinery, control and other technologies, and often needs to be combined with the beautiful surrounding environment. In the design, in addition to paying attention to the beauty, reasonable structure and coordination with the environment, detailed and scientific optimization design is also required to reasonably determine the load power of the high mast lights to ensure that the system can work stably and reliably.
Regarding the lighting settings of outdoor badminton courts, there are requirements for lighting layout and illumination. Formal badminton lighting requires that natural light sources cannot be used, nor can the upper direct lights like basketball games be used. Side upper light sources should be used. This is from the technical perspective of badminton, because the independent high-power lighting lamp facing upward and downward will affect the athletes’ head-up hitting. In reality, if a venue that can hold basketball games is directly used for badminton games, the light source is too high and the position is unreasonable, which will affect the performance of the athletes.
If the outdoor badminton court is not open to the public, the operating cost and management cost should also be considered. For example, the setting of the light should also consider factors such as power saving and individual control of the lights in each venue.
It is true that professional badminton venues have strict requirements on lighting, so it is necessary to have a better understanding of the various hardware and software requirements of the lights.
First of all, the lamps must be qualified, not flashing, not dazzling, and the light should be as soft as possible.
Secondly, the height of the installation lamp is very important. If the light is installed above the court, it is best to be more than 10 meters high, otherwise the badminton will be very easy to hit.
Another issue is the brightness. According to the size of the venue, the lights should be reasonably distributed. There should be no particularly bright places, nor particularly dark places, and they should be kept uniform. The illumination requirement is greater than 300 Lux, and the vertical illumination is greater than half of the horizontal illumination.
In the future, high mast lights will be more and more widely used in outdoor scene lighting. As a manufacturer focusing on outdoor lighting, Tianxiang has made remarkable achievements in the design of high pole lamp projects for badminton courts. From the height of the pole, the distribution of light sources to the anti-glare treatment, every detail has been repeatedly scrutinized and verified in practice. We have successfully landed a number of high-quality badminton court lighting projects, creating an ideal competitive light environment without glare and shadow for athletes with professional strength, and empowering every exciting event with precise lighting design.
