Applications for controlling optically switchable devices

A method for controlling a plurality of windows, the method comprising:

• controlling, from at least one first control system one or more of:
• (a) transmissivity of the plurality of windows, based on sensor information from one or more sensors associated with the windows,
• (b) direction from a second control system comprising a plurality of window controllers coupled to the plurality of windows;
• and
• (c) direction from a third control system of a command and communication device coupled to one or more of the plurality of window controllers;
• directing, from the second control system, in cooperation with the plurality of windows, the transmissivity of the plurality of windows;
• and
• directing, from the third control system, in cooperation with the plurality of window controllers and the plurality of windows, transmissivity of at least one of the plurality of windows, based on the sensor information or information obtained from a network to which the command and communication device is coupled;
• wherein
• one or more of the first control system, the second control system and the third control system are configured to infer a new rule for controlling optical states of the plurality of windows based on a monitored history of user instructions and the sensor information.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium storing non-transitory instructions configured to control a plurality of windows, the instructions configured to:

• control, from at least one first control system one or more of:
• (a) transmissivity of the plurality of windows, based on sensor information from sensors of the windows,
• (b) direction from a second control system comprising a plurality of window controllers coupled to the plurality of windows;
• and
• (c) direction from a third control system of a command and communication device coupled to one or more of the plurality of window controllers;
• direct, from the second control system, in cooperation with the plurality of windows, transmissivity of the plurality of windows;
• direct, from the third control system, in cooperation with the plurality of window controllers and the plurality of windows, transmissivity of at least one of the plurality of windows, based on the sensor information or information obtained from a network to which the command and communication device is coupled;
• wherein
• one or more of the first control system, the second control system and the third control system are configured to infer a new rule for controlling optical states of the plurality of windows based on a monitored history of user instructions and the sensor information.
