Abstract: A method of controlling a plurality of luminaires of a lighting system. The method comprising: capturing with an imaging device, by a user adopting a stationary position, at least one image of the luminaires in a predominant field of view of the user in the stationary position; processing the at least one image to determine the predominant field of view of the user in the stationary position and a location of each of the luminaires relative to the determined predominant field of view of the user; and controlling the luminaires of the lighting system to emit illumination, based on their determined locations relative to the predominant field of view of the user in the stationary position.

Abstract: A method comprising: providing a light source in the form of a luminaire or lamp operable to emit light into an environment, the light source being activated from a time at which the light source is first deployed into said environment to enable the light to be controlled via a first communication channel, but having a capability for the light to be controlled via a second communication channel being electronically deactivated at the time of deployment; then after the time of deployment of the light source into the environment, receiving a request to upgrade the light source; and in response to this request, sending activation data to the light source or a user of the light source, thereby enabling the capability for the light to be controlled via the second communication channel to be electronically activated.

Abstract: A wired switch allows switching the power supplied to a wirelessly controllable appliance, such as a lamp, which may be controlled by e.g. a smart phone running an app. A wireless switch is retrofitted to the wired switch. The wireless switch comprises one or more sensors arranged to detect both the position of the wired switch and a touch input. A controller, receiving indications based on said detection, determines a reachability of the wirelessly controllable appliance. The controller then associates an OFF command to the area of the wired switch that would normally be pressed to turn the lamp off. This allows the lamp to be turned OFF, when the wired switch is in the ON position, by a user controlling the wired switch as (s)he normally would without the used needing to actually change the position of the wired switch (thereby turning OFF power to the appliance).

Abstract: The invention provides a lighting apparatus control switch which uses a detection circuit to monitor a parameter which is dependent on the output current flowing to a lighting load when the lighting apparatus control switch is turned off. The lighting apparatus control switch is configured as an on/off controller or a dimming controller in dependence on the monitored parameter. This lighting apparatus control switch can thus be configured as a 5 dimmable switch, for example implementing leading or trailing edge dimming, or as an on/off switch. The lighting apparatus control switch provides a universal dimmer solution which may be future-proof to allow installation of newer generation lighting loads.

Abstract: A system comprises a plurality of components connected in a wireless network and at least one unconnected (new) component available to join the network. The components are divided amongst a plurality of luminaires, each comprising a respective subgroup of the components including at least one lamp, and each subgroup has a respective subgroup ID. At least a first one of these components is configured to automatically detect whether a previously-present one of the components from the same respective subgroup as the first component is missing from the network. In response to detecting that the previously-present component is missing, the first component automatically causes the new component to be joined to the wireless network, and to be assigned to the same subgroup as the first component under the same subgroup ID.

Abstract: An RF controlled lighting unit is provided, suitable for connection to at least one of a dimmer for adjusting a phase cut angle of input mains voltage in accordance with an adjustable dimming level or an electronic switch for selecting between on- and off-states. The lighting unit includes a solid state light source; a radio circuit for receiving a wireless control signal; a rectifier circuit for rectifying the input mains voltage received from the electronic switch or the dimmer; a first power converter for driving the solid state light source in response to the rectified input mains voltage and delivering power to the radio circuit; and a second power convertor for delivering power to the radio circuit when the rectified input mains voltage becomes inadequate for the first power converter due to the phase-cut angle of the rectified input mains voltage or the off-state of the electronic switch.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for lighting control based on a combination of inputs. One or more properties of light output of a lighting fixture (120A, 120B, 120C) are controlled based on local input (based on local sensor readings) and group input (provided to the lighting fixture and additional lighting fixtures) and/or one or more sensors (125A, 125B) are auto-calibrated. For example, in some embodiments a lighting controller (130A) of a lighting fixture may receive both the local input and the group input and control a dimming level of a light source (150A) of the lighting fixture based on the local input and the group input. For example, the local input may be based on input from a local sensor that is indicative of a light level near the lighting fixture and the group input may be indicative of a desired group level of dimming.
