CalcuLuX Road RC1

CalcuLuX Road RC1 by Philips is a specialized lighting design and calculation tool for roads, streets, and outdoor traffic areas. It helps lighting designers, engineers, and municipalities plan, evaluate, and document roadway lighting schemes with confidence, from initial concept through compliance checks and final reporting.

Key capabilities:

• Designs and evaluates lighting for a wide range of road geometries, including single/double carriageways, intersections, pedestrian zones, and cycle paths.
• Assists with luminaire selection and pole layouts, including mounting height, overhang, spacing, and tilt, to balance performance and energy use.
• Calculates critical metrics such as average illuminance/luminance, overall and longitudinal uniformity, threshold increment (disability glare), and surround ratio.
• Supports compliance assessments against major road-lighting standards and recommendations (e.g., EN 13201/CIE guidance).
• Works with standard photometric formats (IES/EULUMDAT) and Philips luminaire data for accurate, manufacturer-verified results.
• Produces clear outputs—tabular results, contour plots, and printable reports—suitable for submittals and audits.
• Streamlines iteration with fast recalculation and layout optimization to meet targets with fewer trial-and-error steps.

Whether used for new installations or upgrades, CalcuLuX Road RC1 provides a dependable, standards-aware workflow to achieve safe, efficient, and consistent roadway lighting designs.
