PHOTOMETRIC PROTOTYPE FOR MEASURING LIGHT EMISSION AND INTENSITY OF AFL USING LINE RUNWAY LIGHT ROBOT

Abstract

Airport lighting systems are crucial for flight safety, especially during nighttime or adverse weather conditions. The development of a photometric measurement tool employs the miniEVB as the microcontroller, the BH1750 sensor to measure light intensity, and a photodiode to detect light emission. The JDY-40 module connects the robot to an Android application, while the ESP8266 transmits data to a web server. The system is supported by stable power supply from the XL6009 module. Testing through the Node-RED platform, connected with an MQTT broker, demonstrates the tool's accuracy in measuring the intensity and distribution of light in accordance with safety standards.
