Abstract
A method for execution by a computer includes storing object monitor information for a set of detected lighting objects within a digital twin memory by applying processor-executable instructions. The method further includes interpreting a portion of the object monitor information to produce should-be configuration information for the set of detected lighting objects that includes recommended spatial placement information of at least some of the set of detected lighting objects to facilitate achievement of an environment lighting requirement by controlling the detected lighting objects.
Claims9
A computerized method for processing data of a self-forming communication and control system, the method comprising:
- executing, by a processor, object monitor software from a first memory to causing the processor to store object monitor information for a set of detected lighting objects within a digital twin memory by applying processor-executable instructions to at least one of environment signaling of an environment and premise messages associated with the set of detected lighting objects, wherein each lighting object of the set of detected lighting objects includes an illumination component and a lighting control component, the environment signaling comprising at least one of an unencoded direct electromagnetic emission, an unencoded indirect electromagnetic emission, an encoded electromagnetic emission, an encoded electronic signal, an unencoded mechanical wave, and an encoded mechanical wave;
- executing, by the processor, configuration software from a second memory to facilitate intercommunication between the object monitor software and the configuration software to interpret a portion of the object monitor information for the set of detected lighting objects from the digital twin memory to generate should-be configuration information for the set of detected lighting objects to adapt as-is configuration information of the set of detected lighting objects to achieve an environment lighting requirement associated with one or more of a minimum illumination level, a maximum illumination level, and an energy efficiency level, wherein the should-be configuration information includes recommended spatial placement information for at least some of the set of detected lighting objects, wherein the as-is configuration information includes current spatial placement information for at least some of the set of detected lighting objects;
- and
- executing, by the processor, lighting control software from a third memory to facilitate intercommunication between the configuration software and the lighting control software to facilitate control of at least some of the set of detected lighting objects utilizing the should-be configuration information, wherein the processor facilitates the control to achieve the environment lighting requirement.
