Light sensor device and light control device

A control device (20) for controlling a light source (40) to influence light (43) at a location, the control device (20) comprising

• a receiver (27) for receiving a control signal from a sensor device (1), and
• a controller (26) for, in response to the control signal, controlling the light source (40), the control device (20) further comprising at least one of:
• a first part comprising a theme code detector (21) for detecting a theme code, the control signal comprising the theme code, and comprising a processor (22) for, in response to a detection, calculating a setting for the light source (40),
• a second part comprising a location code detector (23) for detecting a location code, the control signal comprising the location code, and comprising a processor (22) for, in response to a detection, calculating a setting for the light source (40),
• a third part comprising a setting detector (24) for detecting a setting for the light source (40), the control signal comprising the setting,
• a fourth part comprising a communicator (28) for communication with a scanner (10) of the sensor device (1).

A sensing method comprising the steps of

• scanning an environment for available light sources,
• repeatedly generating trigger signals,
• detecting a light parameter of light (43) at a location, and
• in response to a trigger signal, transmitting a control signal based on a detection to a control device (20) for controlling a light source (40) to influence the light (43) at the location.

A portable sensor device for temporary use at a location within an environment, the sensor device comprising:

• a scanner for scanning the environment for available light sources, the scanner comprising an active scanner configured for sending scanning requests to and receiving scanning responses from one or more target devices in the environment;
• a trigger signal generator for repeatedly generating trigger signals,
• a light detector for detecting at least one light parameter of light at the location,
• a transmitter for, in response to a trigger signal, transmitting a control signal based on a detection to a control device for controlling a light source to influence the light at the location, and
• a processor for, in response to a detection, calculating a setting for the control device, the control signal comprising the setting.
