RESUMEN
The construction of a smart city puts forward new requirements for lighting systems, such as variable color temperature adapting to environment and low energy consumption. We introduce a variable color temperature laser lighting system that produces uniform light with minimum energy. The color temperature is controlled by tri-color RGB diode lasers, and uniform lighting is achieved by microlens arrays. Tri-color diode lasers with wavelengths of 650, 556, and 450 nm are used as the lighting sources, and the white light laser output is achieved by combining the three beams. The color temperature is controlled by changing the power ratio of each lighting source. Finally, the homogenization of laser energy is regulated by the microlens arrays, and the energy uniformity reaches 91.1%. Moreover, we do an experiment to compare LED street lighting and laser street lighting, finding that the street lighting system with this design can increase the energy utilization rate by 113.33%, and the color temperature of the car headlamps with this design can be changed according to the environment. Therefore, this laser lighting system is an effective solution for modern smart lighting systems and energy saving, which have vast application.
