Internet of Things (IoT) definition A network that connects uniquely identifiable ‘ things ’ to the internet . The ‘things’ have sensing/actuation and potential programmability capabilities. Through the exploitation of unique identification and sensing, information about the ‘thing’ can be collected, and the state of the ‘thing’ can be changed from anywhere, anytime, by anything.

Smart lighting is lighting that you can control from an app, usually on your Apple or Android phone. Source: http://techradar.com Smart lighting is a system initially designed to increase energy efficiency by adapting light intensity according to various parameters (natural light, occupancy, etc.).

Connected smart lighting refers to lighting installations in which the luminaires , with integrated sensors , are interconnected in a wired or wireless network to both control and monitor the lighting. Microcontrollers and many sensors (light, occupancy, temperature, humidity, noise) are small enough to be incorporated in a luminaire . The luminaire becomes both a source of light and information.

Multifunctional or dynamic (daylit) environments lighting control needed Switching the lamps may shorten the lamp life s Sudden changes in level could cause an accident Lighting control via s witched steps or on a continuously variable basis may well be determined by esthetic and cost of ownership issues In practical applications , the lighting control design must be as simple as possible. To ensure that the practical system does not fail to perform because it is too complex for the user Why to apply smart lighting? | Practical role 26

Integration of sensors and new functions into lighting systems, will allow the occupants of a room to adjust lighting according to their needs and desires. It will enable the direction, power, and color of lighting to be adjusted automatically . Why to apply smart lighting? | Esthetic role 28
C hanging the lights causes a p leasing effect It a llows balancing different light sources to ensure that the overall result is pleasing This balance can be saved as a specific lighting scene Convenient is the needs and/or desires change for different users, tasks, times of the day Instead of starting with the tools and technology and working towards a result, the good designer starts with the result and adapts the tools to realize it Why to apply smart lighting? | Esthetic role 29
In commercial buildings, lighting constitutes generally 20–45% of electricity demand [1] Operation of lighting system: 80-90% of the costs [2] Installation: 15% of the costs [2] As electric light sources have become more energy efficient, lighting control has become the primary means to achieve additional energy savings Why to apply smart lighting? | Energetic role 30 [1] Statens energimyndigheten, Förbättrad energistatistik för lokaler – “Stegvis STIL” Rapport år 1: Inventeringar av kontor och förvaltningsbyggnader, 2006, ISSN 1403-1892.

Smart lighting can save up to 80% of energy compared to traditional lighting in homes, public buildings, and offices. Applying smart lighting is more efficient than instructing people and forcing them to switch lights on/o ff . Why to apply smart lighting? | Energetic role 31
It is important to perform the payback calculations Some important points to check are : In many installations the choice of light source is the biggest factor in energy consumption. The light output of some light sources varies during their life (due to maintenance/cleaning cycles) . Not all sources are practical for continuously variable control. It is always necessary to analyze the scope for energy saving by lighting control within an area. Never forget the “user”; fully automatic systems which operate without reference to the people in the working area are not a success. New products and new technologies are increasing the opportunity to save energy by lighting control. Why to apply smart lighting? | Energetic role 32
The practical, esthetic, and energetic role of lighting control result into many types of lighting control Manual control (personal control) Time scheduling Daylight harvesting Occupancy control Constant light control Dynamic light scenarios Daylight glare control Scene setting Tuning Load shedding Types of lighting control 33

Lighting design, the design of lighting schemes as opposed to the design of luminaires, is a mixture of engineering and inspiration . It is possible to design a lighting scheme entirely on engineering and photometric principles, and it is necessary to design them, so they meet electrical, environmental and safety codes . However, lighting design without insight and flair results in dull schemes which may not even meet their purpose if there is an unusual combination of surfaces and colors . Position of smart lighting in the building design process 35
Lighting design as a separate profession All new buildings and building conversions that achieve popular and user acclaim seem to have a lighting designer associated with them as a member of the architect’s team. T hese buildings’ success derives from the fact that lighting is considered important right from the start . Today’s lighting designers understand the role of lighting control and are especially careful to specify systems that are practical and intuitive for the end user .

The building design process Position of smart lighting in the building design process 37
The lighting designer develops a program for the lighting controls. These factors define the control system: system requirements related to codes, daylighting, space tasks and functions, performance features, control flexibility, energy management, systems integration. Position of smart lighting in the building design process 38 Programming
Th e lighting conditions may be programmed in the computer, and upon receipt of signals from the sensors, the actuators must respond, bringing about the estimated alterations. Smart lighting is a technology operating through a computer-controlled, wireless sensor network to meet the programmed lighting demands of a building. Frequent recalibration of lighting controls and emergency systems is necessary to ensure the system is working as planned. Position of smart lighting in the building design process 39 Programming
The lighting control system operation is outlined for the proposed lighting scheme. Position of smart lighting in the building design process 40 Schematic design
This involves the selection, analysis and layout of all lighting hardware, including the control system. The selected control hardware must be properly identified and specified in the contract documents. Position of smart lighting in the building design process 41 Design development
To ensure proper system operation, it is critical that lighting control systems are properly commissioned. Commissioning includes validating that systems have been installed as described in the contract documents; Preset devices, such as scene controllers, are programmed with appropriate settings for the desired lighting scenes; Occupancy sensors and photosensor-based systems are calibrated and tested to ensure proper operation within each space.

“For all office cases, individual lighting control resulted in significant relative energy savings potential of 25–30% over manual control.” De Bakker, 2019 “We identified two conditions as most promising in achieving both energy savings and positive user evaluations of the lighting, in which for both the dimming level was at minimum in the background area of the office space.” De Bakker, 2019 Applications | Energy and comfort 45
“In this study, it was shown that consensus control improved user appreciation of office lighting in an open office, measured by improved satisfaction.” Van der Vleuten-Chraibi, 2019 “In the condition with light controls, the average preferred illuminance values were shown to be lower than the fixed 500 lx work plane lighting, resulting in 27.2% lower energy usage by lighting in the testbed of this study.” Van der Vleuten-Chraibi, 2019 Applications | Appreciation and energy 46
“Personal lighting conditions can provide essential information to draw more in-depth conclusions within a light effect study.” Van Duijnhoven, 2019 “The study demonstrated that duration of light exposure may be relevant in this relationship since the dose-response curves (between light and alertness) showed better trends for longer durations of light exposure.” Van Duijnhoven, 2019 Applications | Alertness 47
“When considering the process of medication dispensing dealing with sometimes very small letter sizes, appropriate lighting might contribute to lowering the error rate.” Aarts, 2020 “The light condition that generates the least errors for the total test population, all font sizes, and all different materials was 1000lx and 4000K. This was also the light condition the participants preferred the most.” Aarts, 2020 Applications | Work performance 48
