Video Conference Lighting

Providing proper lighting for a video conference
space is important to ensuring that the images that
are viewed look good. Here are the problems and
some suggested solutions.
1. Provide lighting for the camera in the proper
quantity, quality and angle. The light should come
from an angle between 45 and 60 vertical.
Optimum
angles of light
onto the face

45
60

Camera

Horizontally, light should

also be cast on the face
from an angle in addition
to front. This will assure
(2 m)
that minimum shadows 6onftcenter
are created in the eye
sockets and under the
nose and chin.
The amount of light falling
on the face of the subject
measured vertically should
be 50-75 F.C. The quality
of light can be assured by
using fluorescent lamps of
3500 K (Color Temperature)
with a CRI (Color Rendering Position light meter
vertically, not horizontally.
Index) of 82+. The use of
high color temperature lamps
(5700 K and higher) is not necessary for video
cameras as the strong blue component makes
most skin tones look bad (blue).
2. Provide minimal lighting for the screen or monitor
for good screen contrast and image sharpness. The
wall where the screen or monitor is located should
have reduced illumination. No reflected glare should
appear on the screen or monitor to inhibit viewing.
The contrast of the screen to the surrounding areas
(or monitors) should be to 10:1 with the display
being the brightest.

3. Provide lighting for the back wall and to a lesser

extent, the side walls to balance the brightness
with the rest of the room. Doing this will prevent the
camera from irising on the back or side walls that
are too dark or too bright. This can allow too much
or too little light into the camera resulting in the
appearance of over or under lighting the subject.
Iris of camera
sees dark
back wall and
opens up to
get more light;
subject looks
overlit.

Generally, the wall finishes and furniture should be

neutral. The reflectance value of these colors and
surfaces should be around 30-40%. Light level
ratios from the participant to the back wall should
be within 3 to 1 while the side walls can be 5 to 1.
Solutions: To accomplish the above requires light
fixtures that provide a wide horizontal component.
The VTC Series fixture
from Lutron that is
designed for this use
is a recessed, indirect
2 x 2 foot with two 50
watt twin tube lamps.
This fixture produces an asymmetric distribution
that provides a large horizontal throw in three
directions. Very
little light is directed
behind the VTC
Series fixtures so they
do not wash out the
viewing screen or
glare into the camera.
The tri-directional

performance of

Plan View
this product often
eliminates the need for
additional lighting on back and side walls, so the
third consideration is handled also. A lighting layout
example has been provided on the next page.
Dual Function and Participant Comfort: The
VTC Series is provided with a dimming ballast so
you may adjust the light levels for optimum picture
quality and have low light level illumination for other
conferencing functions. Combining the low heat of
fluorescent lamps with an indirect optical system,
the participants in the room will have optimum
comfort visually and environmentally.

Vertical light levels on participants should be
a minimum of 50 to 70 fc for successful video
conferencing. Light readings are shown in
