Abstract
A lighting apparatus and a control system for a lighting apparatus are disclosed. A lighting apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a lighting-side Bluetooth module configured to communicate based on a Bluetooth Low Energy protocol; a lighting unit including a semiconductor light emitting device; a sensor unit configured to detect a designated light; a lighting-side memory configured to store unique identification information; and a lighting-side control unit. (FIG. 2)
Claims12
A lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a lighting-side near-filed wireless communication module configured to communicate based on a near-field wireless communication protocol;
- a lighting unit including a semiconductor light emitting device;
- a sensor unit configured to detect a designated light;
- a lighting-side memory configured to store unique identification information;
- and
- a lighting-side control unit;
- wherein, when the sensor unit detects a designated first light corresponding to an individual registration command,
- the lighting-side control unit turns on the lighting-side near-field wireless communication module, and
- controls the lighting-side near-field wireless communication module to broadcast the unique identification information.
A control system for a lighting apparatus including a plurality of lighting apparatuses that form a mesh network, and a terminal, wherein the lighting apparatus comprises:
- a lighting-side near-field wireless communication module configured to communicate based on a near-field wireless communication protocol;
- a lighting unit including a semiconductor light emitting device;
- a sensor unit configured to detect a designated light;
- a lighting-side memory configured to store unique identification information;
- and
- a lighting-side control unit, the terminal comprises:
- a terminal-side near-field wireless communication module configured to communicate with the lighting-side near-field wireless communication module based on a near-field wireless communication protocol;
- a terminal-side control unit;
- and
- a terminal-side memory,
- wherein, when a sensor unit of a first lighting apparatus among the plurality of lighting apparatuses detects a first light corresponding to an individual registration command, a lighting-side control unit of the first lighting apparatus turns on a lighting-side near-field wireless communication module of the first lighting apparatus and controls the near-field wireless communication module of the first lighting apparatus to broadcast unique identification information of the first lighting apparatus, and
- the terminal-side control unit receives the broadcasted unique identification information of the first lighting apparatus through the terminal-side near-field wireless communication module.
A control method for a lighting apparatus including a plurality of lighting apparatuses that form a mesh network, and a terminal, the method comprising:
- (a) maintaining a state in which the plurality of lighting apparatuses can detect a predetermined light through a sensor unit provided therein;
- (b) when a first lighting apparatus among the plurality of lighting apparatuses detects a designated first light corresponding to an individual registration command, broadcasting unique identification information of the first lighting apparatus;
- and
- (c) the terminal receiving and displaying the broadcasted unique identification information of the first lighting apparatus.
