Floodlights are broad-beamed, high intensity artificial lights often used to illuminate outdoor playing fields while an outdoor sports event is being held during low-light conditions. In the top tiers of many professional sports, it is a requirement for stadiums to have floodlights to allow games to be scheduled outside daylight hours. Evening or night matches may suit spectators who have work or other commitment earlier in the day.

  • Floodlights are broad-beamed, high intensity artificial lights often used to illuminate outdoor playing fields while an outdoor sports event is being held during low-light conditions. In the top tiers of many professional sports, it is a requirement for stadiums to have floodlights to allow games to be scheduled outside daylight hours. Evening or night matches may suit spectators who have work or other commitment earlier in the day. The main motivation for this is television marketing, especially in sports such as Gridiron which rely on TV rights money to finance the sport. Some sports grounds which do not have permanent floodlights installed may make use of portable temporary ones instead. Many larger floodlights (see bottom picture) will have gantries for bulb changing and maintenance. These will usually be able to accommodate one or two engineers.
  • Als Flutlicht bezeichnet man die Beleuchtungsanlage für große Flächen, besonders in Sportstätten, Industrieanlagen, Häfen, großen Bahnhöfen, insbesondere Güter- und Rangierbahnhöfen (im deutschsprachigen Raum allerdings nur ausnahmsweise, da dort stattdessen meistens eine Vielzahl kleinerer Lampen benutzt wird), sowie auf Konzerten oder zur Anstrahlung von Sehenswürdigkeiten. die Beleuchtung von transparenten Platten durch Einstrahlung von Licht in deren Schmalseite und dessen Ausbreitung in der Platte durch Totalreflexion: überall dort, wo ein aus einer solchen Platte gefertigtes Schild eine Beschriftung oder Gravur trägt, tritt Licht aus der Platte aus und bringt auf diese Weise ausschließlich diese Markierungen zum Leuchten. Siehe hierzu auch Lichtleiter und Hintergrundbeleuchtung.
  • Flomlys en er sterk, bredstrålet kunstig belysning, som ofte benyttes for å belyse store og/eller utendørs idrettsarenaer mens et idrettsarrangement blir avviklet under dårlige lysforhold. På toppnivå i mange profesjonelle idretter er det et krav at et stadion må ha flomlys for å muliggjøre avvikling av kamper utenom dagtid. Ettermiddags- og kveldskamper passer ofte bedre for publikum som har jobb eller andre forpliktelser på dagtid. Den viktigste motivasjonen for dette er TV-markedsføring, spesielt i idretter som fotball som er avhengige av penger fra TV-rettigheter for å finansiere sin sport. I England ble de første forsøkene med flombelyste fotballkamper gjort på banen Bramall Lane i Sheffield i 1878. Den første flombelyste ligakampen i England fant imidlertid sted først 22. februar 1956 på Fratton Park i Portsmouth, i en kamp mellom Portsmouth og Newcastle United.
