Abstract :

[en] This review paper proposes a research agenda for integrating sustainable, human-centric public lighting systems in urban environments. It addresses the ecological and societal impacts of Artificial light at night, aligning public lighting with Logistics 5.0 principles. Given the emerging nature of Logistics 5.0 and its limited application to public lighting, we conduct a scoping literature review of Industry and Logistics 5.0 in this context. Key research directions include developing IoT-enabled adaptive lighting technologies, strategies for ecological sustainability, and stakeholder collaboration. This paper aims to provide actionable insights for designing public lighting systems that balance energy efficiency, biodiversity preservation, and human well-being.
