Getting Geared Up

Intelligent lighting is programmed by the user and is controlled by a computer. This allows several units to be used simultaneously while having one central controller. This type of lighting is used to create or enhance a mood through preprogrammed patterns. It is the most expensive type of lighting and is most often seen in clubs. Mobiles can use intelligent lighting to highlight special points in the room (i.e., the wedding cake or the doorway where the bride and groom will enter). Preprogramming these locations can allow you to make introductions much more dramatic.
Distributed Generation, Clean Power and Renewable Energy

Advanced lighting solutions will improve health, safety, and security in the workplace and provide savings in energy consumption. Advances in lighting will give building owners and managers higher returns on capital investments. More efficient, intelligent lighting systems will be networked and allow managers greater control over building functions, minimizing operations, maintenance, and energy costs.

It remains true that most office spaces are uniformly lit by ceiling mounted luminaires with limited control or response to the events happening in the space. Even if they are equipped with a well-functioning control system that turns on or off or dims the light sources in response to occupancy, vacancy, or availability of daylight, they are generally controlled as large groups of luminaires. With an intelligent lighting control system equipped with a high-resolution network of sensors, it is possible to monitor the space closely, process the events in the space intelligently, and adjust the light sources precisely to save energy.
