Abstract

The target of a smart lighting system is to control light sources in an environment (e.g. home, office) adaptively according to user contexts and preferences. Literature work in this area focuses on traditional light sources such as incandescent and fluorescent lights, whereas this paper takes a step towards adopting LED luminaries. A novel illumination model for distributed LED luminary control is presented. A prototype system is designed and implemented using several LED luminaries and light sensors. Experiments carried out on the reading space use case show that the desired illumination can be achieved based on user preferences, irrespective of the existence of external light sources.
