Cyber-physical system for real-time daylight evaluation

Abstract

A system for determining light conditions in a space of interest and to control a device thereon includes a light sensor arranged to detect light entering a sub-volume of the space of interest to provide measurement data corresponding to at least an intensity and direction distribution of light entering the sub-volume: a data processor configured to communicate with the light sensor to receive the measurement data, the data processor configured with a computational model to provide a calculated distribution of light based on the measurement date from the sub-volume of the space of interest; and a control system configured to communicate with the data processor to receive the calculated distribution of light and provide control signals based on the calculated distribution of light.
