Abstract :
In recent years, various types of equipment have become more intelligent. In this research, we propose an intelligent lighting system using visible-light communication technology for direct communication between lighting fixtures and illuminance sensors in order to provide the necessary illuminance to a desired location. We actually constructed an experiment simulator based on this concept and verified the effectiveness of the newly developed control method. Verification tests were conducted using an optimization algorithm specialized for lighting control, and the results showed that the various illuminance sensors converged to the preset target illuminance in a very short time. We also confirmed that the system can respond adaptively to the movement of illuminance sensors
