SPEAKER: Ben Cantu, Lumenwerx
A student of Architecture, Ben has over 30 years of experience in consulting to Architects, Lighting Designers, Engineers, Interior Designers, and Landscape Architects when specifying architectural lighting systems. Ben is currently the NYC/Southeast Sales Manger for Lumenwerx.
DESCRIPTION:
This seminar will give an overview of what PoE means, the current state of the technology, and how it can be deployed in the context of LED lighting. We will explore in detail how PoE nodes can be used to power and control luminaires as well as what some of the tradeoffs are when converting a conventional LED lighting system to a PoE-based approach. We will also analyze the current limitations and benefits of this technology. Finally, some recommendations will be made for the successful deployment of a PoE project in the context of integrating lighting.

IoT, Connected Lighting, Smart Lighting, Smart Buildings are all terms that could be used to describe this topic and it certainly can it be confusing. This presentation will delve into and summarize the recent IES Lighting Practice LP-12-21 to make sure that it is easy to understand. During our journey we will clarify the necessary terms around IoT, understand the value of the problems that connected lighting can solve, and discover different use cases and their benefits. This presentation will also explain the technologies used in connected lighting and the applications they are used in. We will outline how to specify connected lighting throughout the project life cycle. The course will explain cybersecurity requirements as well as integration and customer acceptance. Finally, the course will highlight the future state of connected lighting.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe IoT Connected Lighting terms and requirements

PRESENTER: Janet Lennox Moyer, FIALD, AOLP COLD
Jan began her lighting design career in 1976. She began specializing in landscape lighting in the mid 1980s and wrote the essential book used around the world, The Landscape Lighting Book, first released in 1992 and now in its third edition (Wiley, 2013). Over her career, she has worked on projects large and small, from the Defense Intelligence Agency’s first home in Washington, DC, to winery caves, entertainment gardens, and botanical gardens. Jan has taught lighting design since undergraduate school at UC Berkeley, Rutgers, and the Lighting Research Center, among others. She founded the International Landscape Lighting Institute (ILLI), a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit organization that provides landscape lighting education classes in the U.S. and abroad. Jan has amassed a wealth of knowledge that she shares in the 10 session on-line learning program available through IES, IES Learning: Learn Night Light: Observe, Design, Refine. In addition, she has begun work on a full-color design book scheduled for release in late 2021, The Art of Landscape Lighting: A Designer’s Companion, which will provide inspiration for designers through her learnings over more than 45 years of lighting design.

Historically, germicidal ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) dates back more than a century and was widely used in hospitals and public places to reduce infections by inactivating airborne parthenogens in the 1930s – 1950s. Studies from those times demonstrated efficacy, but UVGI use later dropped out of favor in the 1960s after vaccines against a number of childhood diseases, such as polio and measles had been virtually eliminated. Of infectious diseases of significant severity in the developed world only tuberculosis has been without a vaccine and for that reason UVGI has remained in TB clinics – particularly in those countries where TB continues to be a major problem. In these countries, some expertise has been retained. Today with the COVID-19 pandemic, the lessons learned from TB control allow for a ‘rediscovery’ of this technology for use in the current pandemic. Furthermore, the pandemic has greatly accelerated development of UV-C LEDs and other lamp types such as the far-UV-C krypton-chloride (222-nm) lamp to augment the traditional use of low-pressure mercury (254 nm) lamp. Sadly, misconceptions about UVGI, such as a perceived skin cancer risk remain and a lack of understanding of proper safety precautions continue to slow the wide acceptance of UVGI. ANSI/IES RP44 was prepared by the IES Photobiology Committee to better inform all interested lighting specialists as well as those responsible for infectious disease control.

Richard Vincent
Mr. Vincent applies germicidal ultraviolet (GUV) disinfection technology and tools to control the transmission of tuberculosis and other infectious diseases both airborne and surface borne (fomite) or mix-mode, in high-risk settings. During the COVID-19 pandemic he work with a team of virologists, engineers and biodesigners at Mount Sinai and RPI to inactivate SARS-CoV-2 inoculated on respirators to test a UVC system for possible reuse of respirators. He was the project manager and UV lighting specialist for the Tuberculosis Ultraviolet Shelter Study (TUSS), (1997-2004). TUSS—a multidisciplinary, multicenter epidemiological field trial of ultraviolet air cleansing effectiveness formed by St. Vincent’s Hospital and the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) advanced UVGI application for airborne disease control in homeless shelters. At the Mount Sinai Hospital, he is working to reduce the rate of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) by benchmarking the efficacy of various technologies including mobile, whole-room UVC devices for decontamination of surfaces from pathogens such as MRSA, and C. Difficile. He has studied the use of stationary UV units to clean mobile technology, UVC cleansing of mobile technology. He is studying UV LED surface disinfection in the laboratory and then in situ. He has provided technical assistance on GUV projects in India, Myanmar, and Pakistan. Since 2016, Mr. Vincent serves at the Coordinator for the StopTB Partnership working Group: End TB Transmission Initiative (ETTI). He provided expert input on GUV for the WHO Guidelines on tuberculosis infection prevention and control, 2019 update. Mr. Vincent chairs the ASHRAE GCP 37 developing guidelines for the application of upper room ultraviolet germicidal irradiation systems (UVGI/GUV). Mr. Vincent chaired the CIE TC 6-52 resulting CIE 287:2021 a test method for gonioradiometric measurement of upper room GUV fixtures. He is working with the IES Photobiology committee, ASHRAE and the CIE to make recommendations for GUV in response to the COVID 19 pandemic.
