A smart lighting system for industrial and domestic use

Abstract

The goal of this work is to develop a smart LED lighting system for industrial and domestic use, taking into account visual comfort and energy saving of interior lighting. The idea is to control the lighting level in an energy efficient way, keeping a desired light level where it is needed, while regulating it to a minimum where not required. In order to achieve this goal, a single control unit is needed for each lamp. In this way the system can individually control the desired light level, adapting the LED illumination according to the environment in which it is installed, by means of light sensors, motion sensors and a smart control system. Experimental results are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
