“…In [17,18], an intelligent lighting system was developed for a typical office environment to evaluate the perception of work-related productivity, efficiency and fatigue of the occupants working on site. In [19] a lighting control system capable of adjusting illuminance, uniformity and correlated color temperature according to students needs was evaluated.…”

Dynamic lighting is playing a key role in education, by considering the main photometric variables such as the correlated color temperature and the illuminance to increase student’s attention levels inside the classroom. In the case of design students, the project component is fundamental for teaching, where students mainly need to develop activities such as presentation to listen to the teacher instructions, ideation and sketching to propose a solution according to the problem being addressed, and exhibition to present the work that has been done. These activities require specific and adequate lighting conditions to generate a positive impact on the performance of students. This article presents the design of a dynamic lighting system capable of adjusting the correlated color temperature in a range from 2500 K to 6500 K and the illuminance levels in a range from 0 lx to 800 lx to enhance the sustained and fixed attention of design students inside the classroom according to the type of activity that is being developed. The performance of the system was evaluated experimentally by measuring student’s attention inside the ergonomics and usability laboratory by using the Gesell chamber, the Emotiv Epoc EEG Headset with 14 electrodes to measure the brain activity and obtain engagement and focus levels, the eye tracking Tobii glasses, and a protocol to evaluate performance including several surveys and camera observation. In conclusion, the dynamic lighting system can improve the attention of design students by configuring the photometric variables according to the type of activity that is being done.

“…The lighting control strategy has an important effect on people's perception and it should be the trend for future ILCS, which combining the human needs with lighting control technology [3]. The increased adoption of light emitting diodes (LEDs) in luminaries, lighting systems can be flexibly and dynamically controlled for illumination rendering [4].…”

An Intelligent Lighting Control System (ILCS) was proposed and designed by considering ergonomic setting and energy efficiency. The integration of CompactRIO and National Instrument Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench (NI LabVIEW) 2012 as a platform to design an interactive Graphical User Interface (GUI) as well as integrating components within the system. The proportional controller programmed in NI LabVIEW provides autonomous dimmer control and adjustment of the light-emitting diode (LED conducted shows the developed system capable of contro based on the luminance set point. Moreover, the result also showed the average power saving of up to 33% compared to normal use. However, several modifications and improvements are desired before the system could be app

“…In some studies, the ergonomic comfort of lighting is also considered to address the psychological needs and well-being of its users [29]. To minimise the energy consumption of streetlights, the most straightforward option is to turn them off altogether (but this defeats their purpose); ideally, streetlights would only be turned on when they are useful.…”

Street lighting is a ubiquitous utility, but sustaining its operation presents a heavy financial and environmental burden.Many schemes have been proposed which selectively dim lights to improve energy efficiency, but little consideration has been given to the usefulness of the resultant street lighting system. This paper proposes a real-time adaptive lighting scheme, which detects the presence of vehicles and pedestrians and dynamically adjusts their brightness to the optimal level. This improves the energy efficiency of street lighting and its usefulness; a streetlight utility model is presented to evaluate this. The proposed scheme is simulated using an environment modelling a road network, its users, and a networked communication system -and considers a real streetlight topology from a residential area. The proposed scheme achieves similar or improved utility to existing schemes, while consuming as little as 1-2% of the energy required by conventional and state-of-the-art techniques.
