The application goal was to detect the type of the airport lamp based on differences in colour components of the light emitted by luminaires with specific spectral characteristics. Recognition of airport lamps is based on the analysis of the light spectrum. Proposed solution allows for an automatic software selection of appropriate conversion factors and comparison with specific standards necessary for this type of measurements. Various types of sensors were discussed and the AS7262 sensor was examined in detail. The colour sensor and the light intensity sensor were used in the mobile control device for examining elevated airport lamps and in the measurement platform for quality testing of embedded airport lamps. Two additional aspects were investigated: 1) influence of an additional acrylic glass cover; 2) distance between airport lamps and the spectrum sensor.}, type={Article}, title={Spectrum sensors for detecting type of airport lamps in a light photometry system}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/121425/PDF-MASTER/OPELRE_2021_29_4_J_Suder.pdf}, doi={10.24425/opelre.2021.139383}, keywords={optoelectronic sensors, colour detection, light photometry systems, airport lamps}, }
