We present the design and implementation of a unique sensing and actuation application -- the Illuminator: a sensor network-based intelligent light control system for entertainment and media production. Unlike most sensor network applications, which focus on sensing alone, a distinctive aspect of the Illuminator is that it closes the loop from light sensing to lighting control. We describe the Illuminator's design requirements, system architecture, algorithms, implementation and experimental results. The system uses the Illumimote, a multi-modal and high fidelity light sensor module well-suited for wireless sensor networks, to satisfy the high-performance light sensing requirements of entertainment and media production applications. The Illuminator system is a toolset to characterize the illumination profile of a deployed set of fixed position lights, generate desired lighting effects for moving targets (actors, scenic elements, etc.) based on user constraints expressed in a formal language, and to assist in the set up of lights to achieve the same illumination profile in multiple venues. After characterizing deployed lights, the Illuminator computes optimal light settings at run-time to achieve a user-specified actuation profile, using an optimization framework based on a genetic algorithm. Uniquely, it can use deployed sensors to incorporate changing ambient lighting conditions and moving targets into actuation. Experimental results demonstrate that the Illuminator handles various high-level user requirements and generates an optimal light actuation profile. These results suggest that the Illuminator system supports entertainment and media production applications.

In this paper, we propose an autonomous Indoor lighting control system in which indoor lighting devices are autonomously controlled such that electricity bills are minimized in our daily life. Our focus is to utilize Passive Infrared (PIR) sensors to detect the presence of human being indoor and automatically to control indoor lighting electric devices. A control algorithm is also devised to control the whole system. We justify the proposed system by demonstrating specific applications in our everyday life. Cost survey and experimental results also demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed system in real life.

The ZigBee communication method, which is the most frequently applied to the LED lighting control system, has drawbacks of low-speed and low-capacity, and the communication failure possibility due to environmental influences is on the rise. Therefore, it is important to secure the communication reliability by applying an integrated interface with a wire-wireless dual-network. This paper developed a communication module, which has a platform converging and combining the ZigBee of USN environments with the PLC of power line communication environments, to implement a dualized communication interface system supporting the wire-wireless integrated protocol, and implemented a wire-wireless networking device and a control system software technology. As a result, it was automatically switched into the PLC communication within 4.4 seconds on average when there was an access failure in the ZigBee communication network, so a reliable communication network was built.

Currently green growth and energy saving are major issues and solution using low-power LED lighting devices are gaining popularity. There are a few standards to control these LED lighting equipment and DMX512 protocol is a typical communication control standard used. DMX512 lighting control protocol is one of standard protocols widely used in various fields which include mainly stage lighting and landscape lighting. But in DMX512 protocol, line is to be connected to a wired connection. Advantage of wired connection is stable data transfer operation but it adds complexity and certain constraints as well in wired connection. To solve this problem, wired connection can be replaced efficiently with a wireless connection but for wireless, problem of data loss and two way communications arises. In this paper, these problems of wireless communication for DMX512 have been addressed and solutions for two way communications and data loss problem have been proposed.

This paper presents a fully digital controlled power supply unit for the wireless controlled dimmable LED lighting system. The proposed power supply designed using a fly-back converter, which is directly controlled by a microprocessor. Although the proposed circuit does not sense the AC input current and has not AC input voltage feed-forward, it can achieve a high power factor. The proposed power supply directly regulates the output power for LED loads using the PWM and PFM control of the fly-back converter without additional regulator. For a wireless remote control function, the Zigbee modem is equipped in the proposed power supply. A prototype set-up has been built and tested. Through the experiment with a prototype set-up, the usefulness of the proposed power supply is verified.
