Week 12.1

Final Year Project Proposal and Progress Report

PROBLEM STATEMENT
With the current effort to minimize energy costs and to fulfill the green environment mission, some countries are considering an alternative to replace the use of fluorescent lamps in offices and schools. Fluorescent lamps are known as the traditional way of lighting system since 1950s but have poor service life and hazardous. Advancements were made with the introduction of Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL), the miniature version of the fluorescent lamp.
As the technology grows, the uses of LEDs are evolving. From the simple use of light indicator, it evolves into an LED-based lamp. For these breakthroughs in lighting systems, it is important to compare the efficiency between both systems and to provide a solution to a better and efficient lighting system.
