Claims15
A method for position based management of an artificial lighting arrangement arranged to control growth of a plurality of plants in a controlled environment, the method comprising:
- determining, using a user operated mobile electronic device, a position of the mobile electronic device within the controlled environment, and p1 based on said position, performing at least one of the following steps:
- adjusting at least one parameter of light emitted by the artificial lighting arrangement based on the position of the mobile electronic device, and
- exchanging information between the mobile electronic device and a remotely arranged control unit, the information relating to at least one of the plurality of plants located in the vicinity of the position of the mobile electronic device.
A mobile electronic device for position based management of an artificial lighting arrangement arranged to control growth of a plurality of plants in a controlled environment, wherein the mobile electronic device comprises control circuitry configured for:
- determining a position of the mobile electronic device within the controlled environment, and
- based on said position, performing at least one of the following steps:
- adjusting at least one parameter of light emitted by the artificial lighting arrangement based on the position of mobile electronic device, and
- exchanging information between the mobile electronic device and a remote control unit, the information relating to at least one of the plurality of plants, wherein the at least one plant is arranged in the vicinity of the position of the mobile electronic device.
A computer program product comprising a computer readable medium having stored thereon computer program means for a system comprising a mobile electronic device adapted for position based management of a plurality of plants, the plurality of plants being arranged in a controlled environment and subject to light emitted by at least one artificial lighting arrangement, wherein the computer program product comprises code for:
- determining a position of the mobile electronic device within the controlled environment, and
- based on said position, performing at least one of the following steps:
- adjusting at least one parameter of light emitted by the artificial lighting arrangement based on the position of mobile electronic device, and
- exchanging information between the mobile electronic device and a remote control unit, the information relating to at least one of the plurality of plants, wherein the at least one plant is arranged in the vicinity of the position of the mobile electronic device.
