System for checking a luminaire status and method thereof

A method for checking a status of a luminaire using a mobile terminal in a vicinity of the luminaire, wherein the mobile terminal comprises a sensing means, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by the mobile terminal, an identifier of the luminaire;
• determining, based on the obtained identifier of the luminaire, a measure of the status of the luminaire to be acquired;
• acquiring, by the sensing means of the mobile terminal, the measure of the luminaire status;
• determining, based on the acquired measure of the luminaire status, the luminaire status;
• obtaining information indicating whether the luminaire status is correct based on the determined luminaire status and a reference status, said information optionally comprising a required correction;
• and
• optionally, determining, based on the obtained information, a cause of current or future failure of the luminaire head.

A method for checking a status of a luminaire using a mobile terminal in a vicinity of the luminaire, wherein the mobile terminal comprises a sensing means, a memory, and a communication means, the method comprising:

• obtaining, by the mobile terminal, an identifier of the luminaire;
• determining, based on the obtained identifier of the luminaire, a measure of the status of the luminaire to be acquired;
• acquiring, by the sensing means of the mobile terminal, the measure of the luminaire status;
• and
• storing, in the memory of the mobile terminal, data about the acquired measure of the luminaire status, said data being associated to the identifier of the luminaire,
• wherein the sensing means of the mobile terminal comprises an image capturing means, and
• wherein the obtaining of the identifier comprises:
• acquiring, via the image capturing means of the mobile terminal, a visual representation, preferably a QR code or a barcode, of the identifier, said visual representation being provided to a surface in proximity to the luminaire;
• and
• obtaining, by the mobile terminal, the identifier of the luminaire based on the acquired visual representation.
