Heliospectra presentation, May 23

LED spectrum optimisation using steady-state fluorescence gains

Heliospectra will present their latest findings on light quality and optimisation at the upcoming VIII International Symposium on Light in Horticulture, East Lansing, Michigan, May 22-26.

On Monday May 23rd Daniel Bånkestad, Research and Development Engineer with Heliospectra, will be conducting an oral presentation during the “Light quality and optimization” session entitled LED spectrum optimisation using steady-state fluorescence gains.

His presentation is preceded by a session with Anna-Maria Carstensen, PhD candidate at Chalmers University of Technology, who is presenting findings on Exploring the dynamics of remotely detected fluorescence transients from Basil as a potential feedback for lighting control in greenhouses.

Both findings were made possible by utilizing Heliospectra’s LED plant growth light systems as a part of an ongoing project funded by Mistra. Mistra is a Swedish organization, which seeks to promote sustainable development by investing in collaborations between researchers and industry - with the aim of solving important environmental problems.

Dr. Grazyna Bochenek along with Ida Fällström, Plant and Light Research Manager with Heliospectra, will present some of their recent work on a poster entitled ''The Effect of Diurnal Light Intensity Distributions on Plant Productivity in a Controlled Environment''.

Presentations continue on Tuesday May 23rd when Dr. Karl-Johan Bergstrand from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences will present his research, Using short photoperiods and narrow-band lighting as a way of controlling growth in ornamental pot- and bedding plants, using the Heliospectra lighting system.
