Intelligent sensor-activated light control devices, systems, and methods including ambient light sensors

An intelligent sensor-activated light control device, comprising:

• at least one motion sensor structured to detect motion within a local environment within which the at least one motion sensor is located;
• at least one ambient light sensor structured to determine an ambient light level within the local environment in response to the motion being detected by the at least one motion sensor;
• memory that stores a first output light that is associated with a first time interval, and a second output light level that is associated with a second time interval, wherein the first and second output light levels are each associated with the ambient light level;
• a timer;
• a light control device structured to cause light to be output;
• and
• at least one processor structured to:
• determine, using the timer, that the motion was detected at an occurrence within the first time interval;
• select the first output light level in response to determining the ambient light level and determining that the motion was detected at the occurrence;
• and
• cause, using the light control device, light to be output at the selected first output light level.

An intelligent sensor-activated light control system, comprising:

• at least one motion sensor positioned at a first location within a local environment;
• at least one ambient light sensor positioned at a second location within the local environment;
• a light control device positioned at a third location within the local environment;
• a timer;
• memory that stores a plurality of output light levels and a plurality of ambient light levels;
• communications circuitry;
• and
• at least one processor structured to:
• receive, using the communications circuitry, an ambient light level determined by the at least one ambient light sensor for the local environment in response to motion being detected by the at least one motion sensor;
• determine, from the memory, a first output light level that is associated with a first time interval, and a second output light level that is associated with a second time interval, wherein the first and second output light levels are associated with the ambient light level;
• determine, using the timer, that the motion was detected at an occurrence within the first time interval;
• select, from the memory, the first output light level in response to determining the ambient light level and determining that the motion was detected at the occurrence;
• and
• provide, using the communications circuitry, instructions to the lighting device to output light at the selected first output light level.
