Abstract
A CCD-based measuring instrument aimed at the veiling luminance estimation and the relative low-cost calibration method are described. The system may allow the estimation of the optimum luminance levels in road-tunnels lighting, thus both increasing the drivers safety and avoiding energy wasting hence unjustified higher lighting-costs.
