Abstract
During the future exploration and exploitation of the ocean, most of the underwater television, photography, and direct viewing from sub-mersibles or by divers, will utilize submerged non-or low-coherent light sources. However, at the present there are no valid procedures to follow in designing underwater lighting installations. This lack of knowledge is due to the fact that no one at the present time knows how to calculate the distribution of light underwater by any given type of lamp.
