Abstract
A control method and control apparatus of a smart occupancy sensor system are provided. The control method includes receiving a switch status value of a switch configured to control power of a sensor module and a spatial information value of a space that is a detection target of the sensor module, generating a sensor priority signal based on the received switch status value and the received spatial information value, generating an increase event signal or a decrease event signal based on the sensor priority signal, and generating a new control signal and controlling the sensor module based on the generated new control signal.
Claims20
A control method of a smart occupancy sensor system, the control method comprising:
- receiving a switch status value of a switch configured to control power supply of a sensor module and a spatial information value of a space that is a detection target of the sensor module;
- generating a sensor priority signal based on the received switch status value and the received spatial information value;
- generating an increase event signal or a decrease event signal based on the sensor priority signal;
- and
- generating a new control signal and controlling the sensor module based on the generated new control signal.
A control apparatus of a smart occupancy sensor system, the control apparatus comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- at least one memory configured to store instructions executable by the processor,
- wherein, when the instructions are executed by the processor, the processor is configured to:
- receive a switch status value of a switch configured to control power supply of a sensor module and a spatial information value of a space that is a detection target of the sensor module;
- generate a sensor priority signal based on the received switch status value and the received spatial information value;
- generate an increase event signal or a decrease event signal based on the sensor priority signal;
- and
- generate a new control signal and control the sensor module based on the generated new control signal.
