Compositive Analysis and Evaluation of Glare at LCD in Locomotive's Driving Environment During Night-Time

The impact of glare on readability at Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) will directly affect the efficiency of the man-machine interaction and even the safety of a roaring train. Under the running condition of Chinese main locomotives during night_time, this paper measures the glare at LCD in a series of experiments on the indoor illumination conditions at night, and also this paper compositively analyses the mechanism and the indices of glare of the LCD installed in the current cab on the rails. In conclusion, this paper develops a reference arrangement scheme and illuminance of the door light source in the locomotive cab when the train moves at night.
