DOLL – National Green Lab for Lighting & Smart Urban Technologies
Testing new Lighting Technologies and Smart City Applications – photonics is a key driver in the Future Smart Society. DOLL is Denmark’s new platform for developing future LED-lighting and Smart City solutions. In the DOLL labs we test and demonstrate intelligent and energy-efficient outdoor lighting and Smart City-solutions. Our partners are private companies in the lighting sector, but other key players in creating the the Future Smart Society take part: supply companies, telecom & IOT, data analytics & processing and application & system integrators meet in DOLL with cutting edge knowledge, based on solid research at DTU, AAU and our academic partners. Gains beyond energy savings The market for LED-lighting and new intelligent management systems of light is developing rapidly and has great potential to lead to significant energy savings. It provides new market opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers to meet the needs of buyers. Needs such as certainty of quality, energy efficiency,
spectral distribution, and longevity of new products. Technologies to be trusted DOLL’s three laboratories aim to ensure a future-proof transition to new technologies. DOLL has four focus areas. Common to the four areas is the objective to ensure energy savings and high-quality lighting solutions, and to create knowledge about how lighting can contribute to a better quality perception of indoor and outdoor environments. • • • •

DOLL Living Lab
– living laboratory for lighting and Smart City-solutions
In DOLL’s Living Lab manufacturers and suppliers present and test lighting- and Smart City-solutions in full scale in Hersted Industrial Park in Albertslund. Buyers can visit the area to experience state-of-theart LED-lighting solutions. The solutions are controlled and data collected and analysed in DOLL Visitor Center, centrally-placed in the Living Lab.
New technologies offer new market opportunities In Living Lab buyers and manufacturers of lighting solutions can meet in a neutral setting. Buyers can experience various solutions in a natural environment. This gives decision makers better insight and knowledge to make investments in new lighting solutions. Living Lab offers buyers and advisors to • have market transparency through the opportunity to experience and compare lighting solutions from leading manufacturers • assess the experienced quality, aesthetics and safety-creating aspects of light • see how different lighting systems on the market can be controlled and monitored from the control centre, the DOLL Visitor Center.
Living Lab offers manufacturers and suppliers • A unique opportunity for presenting lighting solutions, as well as testing management systems and Smart City-technologies • A show- and control-room where lighting solutions are managed and customers can visit and compare management systems • A powerful sales parameter combined with impartial documentation from DOLL Quality Lab. Living Lab provides manufacturers the possibility for increased and qualified dialogue with decision-makers and end-users. That adds more accuracy in product development and adjustments and ensures the buyer better lighting solutions.

DOLL Living Lab demonstrates intelligent urban lighting solutions and other Smart City technologies in full scale in a live urban environment. Living Lab features 10 kilometres of roads and bike lanes in Hersted Industrial Park in Albertslund Municipality demonstrating intelligent LED-lighting solutions, sensors, and control systems.
SUS - Smart Urban Services - is the Smart City-platform within DOLL Living Lab, where Smart City solutions are demonstrated and tested. The purpose is to look at different types of public services and make them smart. This involves operation of roads, sewers, water, energy, traffic and more. Through sensors that detect for example light, sound, contamination, temperature,

movement, or the like data from the city will be collected. Several communication systems will be tested to ensure, that the sensors communicate with eachother.
New technologies increases demand for safe investments for buyers DOLL Quality Lab can test and characterise light sources, fixtures, lamps and lighting components for the benefit of manufacturers and suppliers. Through impartial documentation, Quality Lab ensures regions, municipalities, and other buyers a safe foundation for making decisions about new lighting solutions.
• Total flux • Colour temperature • Spectral analysis • Power consumption • Colour coordinates The tests contribute to validate offers and to document the effect and efficiency of the light.
Prior to tenders and after installation Quality Lab can impartially assist manufacturers in testing all aspects such as:
Assistance with tenders for buyers Quality Lab can impartially assist municipalities, regions and other buyers with:
• •
making future-proof requirements for lighting solutions in new tenders testing quality of chosen lighting solutions conducting measurements of lighting after installation to document that the solution meets the demanded requirements.
In these ways, Quality Lab provides the foundation for reliable, quality products, and ensures adherence to European and global standards for lighting.
VIRTUAL LAB
DOLL Virtual Lab - 3D simulation of lighting solutions
Contact: Jesper Wolff Project manager, Virtual Lab + 45 2339 7495 jw@lightinglab.dk
Virtual Lab is a high-tech laboratory located at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). The laboratory can test, develop and validate lighting solutions that are virtually generated in 3D. Virtual models are powerful tools for saving resources in product development and ensuring optimal light solutions. New technologies offer new virtual opportunities At Virtual Lab, virtual models of possible lighting solutions are created. The lab is considered a tool for validation and concept assessment wherein light solutions are tested, presented, assessed for further development and accepted before making a physical construction and, eventually, the actual product. Manufacturers, contractors, and public decision-makers can use the laboratory for developing and implementing illuminants and lighting solutions.
See the light early in the process Virtual Lab enables manufacturers to: • • •
scientifically visualise solutions in an early stage of development build, simulate and modify 3D-models based on technical measurements in DOLL’s Quality Lab replicate the characteristics of illuminants and light fixtures concerning, for example, effect, dissemination, reflection and glare
•
involve decision-makers, users and others in relation to aesthetics, functionalities and other qualitative conditions.
Virtual Lab works closely with Quality Lab. The constellation enables technical measurements of illuminants, light fixtures and materials for realistic virtual simulations in Virtual Lab.
