System and methods for automatically configuring of lighting parameters

Abstract

The invention relates to automatically configuring of a lighting, particularly to creating a lighting, which follows a person, with a networked lighting system. A basic idea of the invention is to configure lighting in a network of lamps in that a lamp of the network adjusts its light emission depending on presence detection in its own direct environment and the presence detected in the environment of other lamps of the network. An embodiment of the invention relates to a system (10) for automatically configuring a lighting, wherein the system comprises a network of lamps (12), in which every lamp is coupled to a presence detector (14) and can receive signals from other lamps in the network, wherein a received signal indicates an activity detected by the presence detector coupled to the lamp, which transmits the signal, and wherein every lamp adjusts its light emission depending on the signal received from other lamps and the measurement of its presence detector. The invention allows automatically configuring a lighting with a network of lamps for a certain area in that lights go on before a person gets to a certain area.
