Architectural Lighting: When Smart Controls Network

摘要

It feels good to be in control. When it comes to the occupant experience in a building, lighting control systems can provide some of that satisfaction with the added benefits of increasing the flexibility of a space and reducing energy consumption. Though lighting controls have been around for decades, they have recently evolved to become more sophisticated and complex. Networked lighting controls (NLC), in particular, have the potential to reduce energy usage as much as the switch from conventional sources to solid-state lighting, or LEDs.
