Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of lighting technology, specifically to a lighting control method and system based on the Internet of Things (IoT). Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of technology and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the concept of smart homes has gradually gained popularity and become an important trend in modern home development. Consumers have put forward higher requirements for the intelligence, convenience, and personalization of their home environments. As an indispensable part of the home environment, the intelligent control of lighting has become a key component of smart home systems.
[0003] In the field of traditional lighting control, manual switching is mainly used to control the lights to turn them on and off. This method is extremely inconvenient, especially in large venues or environments with multiple rooms. Users need to operate the light switches in each room one by one, which consumes a lot of time and energy. Moreover, traditional lighting control cannot automatically adjust the brightness of the lights according to changes in ambient light intensity, which can lead to unnecessary energy consumption or insufficient lighting intensity, resulting in inadequate lighting effects. Alternatively, it cannot adjust the color lighting effects according to the user's actual living scenarios, making it difficult to meet the diverse living needs of users.
[0004] Based on the above reasons, this invention proposes a lighting control method and system based on the Internet of Things. Summary of the Invention
[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention utilizes various monitoring devices to perceive and collect data on the environment and user behavior. The intelligent control terminal automatically adjusts the lighting effects according to preset lighting modes, matching them to human actions and activating designated modes. This ensures that the lighting effects not only meet user needs but also possess unique characteristics, greatly enhancing the convenience and comfort of lighting. Furthermore, by employing RGB-adjustable lamps and color sensors, the system achieves precise lighting color control. Users can accurately control the RGB values of the lamps according to their actual needs or the requirements of the spatial environment, resulting in specific color effects and creating a rich and accurate lighting environment to meet the needs of different situations and users. In addition, during the setting and operation of commonly used lighting modes, the intelligent control terminal automatically controls the lights to turn off or dim them to energy-saving mode when the ambient light intensity exceeds a preset threshold or when no human activity is detected within a preset time, avoiding unnecessary energy waste and effectively reducing lighting energy consumption.
