En ljusare framtid för lantbruket : Användarcentrerad konceptutveckling inom ljussättning

Sammanfattning: This thesis is a human-centered concept development in lighting. The purpose of the work was to show the possibility of how lighting could be used and how lighting is applied to have the desired effect during night driving. The purpose of the customer was a user-friendly machine. The goal was to deliver knowledge in lighting to Väderstad regarding their agricultural machines. There were three product groups, all of which were carefully examined. Ideas in design-, user- and indication-lighting were presented.   The question that was answered in the essay was: What are the most important lighting functions for farmers on seed drills from Väderstad with a focus on night driving?   The methodology was taken from two engineering design processes and a lighting design process. Initially, it was problem finding and information gathering to gain a good understanding of the work and what was desired, then a creative phase with concept development that generated different ideas for possible solutions. This was followed by a mid-term meeting where concept selection was in focus. Finally, a lighting plan was created that became the appearance and function of the end result.   The theory describes the technical possibility that LED lighting has created. With cheaper and more accessible technology, increases the number of users and more uses for light. This development is not only positive, but also brings light pollution that is negative for humans and animals. The physiology of the eye and how it comes about that the brain "sees" as well as visual changes that are linked to age are also described in the theory chapter. Finally, various forms of light environments and the risk of injury and accidents are described, including blinding and flicker.   The end result was a concept of luminaires applied to the machine. Better lighting in the seed box and on platforms and steps is presented in rendered images on the Inspire 1200 C / S machine.
