Revolutionizing Tennis Court Lighting with Tweener by NLX

Tennis courts, along with their associated infrastructure, must meet various regulations and standards, particularly when it comes to lighting requirements. For outdoor courts, the lighting standard is set at 300 lux on the ground, while indoor courts require 500 lux. The lighting quality is assessed at 13 specific points on the court, marking intersections of lines and the net with the ground. These points must maintain a tolerance of 0.7, ensuring consistent lighting across the entire playing area.

Currently, tennis courts are illuminated by fixed spotlights positioned at the top of posts in the four corners of the court, with additional spotlights placed at net level. However, obtaining a building permit from the local municipality is necessary for the installation of these lighting systems.

Next Lighting eXperience (NLX): A Decade of LED & Sports Lighting Innovation

With over a decade of experience in LED and sports lighting, I joined Next Lighting eXperience (NLX) in 2018 to help transform tennis court lighting. Throughout the year-long development process, I participated in studies, contributed to technical drawings, worked on graphic assignments, and even assisted in the assembly of the product at the factory. This collaborative effort aimed to improve lighting efficiency and quality for tennis courts, offering advanced LED solutions that meet the required standards and enhance the overall playing experience.
