Background Research

  Why is Smart Lighting Important? Lighting accounts for 15-20% of global electricity use . Energy-efficient lighting can reduce power consumption and environmental impact. Traditional lighting wastes energy when left on unnecessarily. How Smart Lighting Solves These Problems Automated control : Lights turn ON/OFF based on occupancy (PIR sensors). Ambient light sensing : Adjusts brightness depending on natural light levels . Gesture control : Offers a touch-free and convenient way to control lighting. Remote access : Wi-Fi module enables mobile/web control . Energy Savings with Automated Lighting Research by Smith et al. (2023) found that smart lighting systems can reduce energy consumption by 40% . Studies highlight that motion-based control significantly improves efficiency. Gesture-Based Smart Lighting Control Doe (2021) analysed how computer vision-based gesture control improves user experience. Results showed that gesture-based systems had 85-95% recognition accuracy ...
