Networked Exterior Lighting Controls |
Long-life, energy-efficient luminaires with smart controls help predict occupant's path. CLTC, UC Davis Facilties Management, and industry partners Lumewave, EverLast Lighting, and Wattstopper have collaborated to develop and test a pathway lighting solution that increases safety and optimizes energy savings through a method called predictive occupancy. Each pathway fixture is equipped with a wireless controller and an occupancy sensor, allowing the installation to operate as a system that can determine the path of travel of an occupant. This is combined with dimmable induction lighting to reduce total energy use and increase safety. The system also reports energy usage at the fixture level and can alert maintenance staff when needed. CLTC will continue to monitor the site for reliability and energy savings. Future activities include additional installations and continued monitoring for reliability. - CLTC and UC Davis collaborated on a pathway lighting solution that uses predictive occupancy.
- Each bi-level induction pathway fixture has a wireless controller and occupancy sensor that determine an occupant's direction of travel. The networked system is being demonstrated
at UC Davis. - Researchers are exploring additional opportunities for this technology, including parking lots, roadways, and wall packs.
