Update Your Home with Residential Smart Lighting

When you are caught up in the daily rush of work, family activities or errands, you may not give the lighting in your home a second thought. But smart lighting technology can automate your exterior and interior lighting in convenient ways that can improve both your safety and sleep cycles, as well as increase your home's energy efficiency. Smart lighting is an innovative lighting technology which enables you to automatically control your lighting using specific lighting systems.

Designed originally for energy efficiency, the smart light technology has considerably enhanced the convenience and security aspects for the user. Through effective fixtures and automated controls via mobile applications and platforms, smart Residential Lighting allows sufficient preferential adjustments for essential lighting, deliberate application, and security illumination.

The smart residential lighting system can effectively control cooling, heating, electrical appliances alongside lighting. The automated control features and advantage to control from a remote distance allows maximum energy saving. This system also reduces electricity consumption thanks to its daylight sensing, occupancy sensing features.

Smart lighting for homes increases the convenience factor of living in the space significantly. It intensifies comfort and easy usability across different areas. The sensors, once again, contribute to this benefit by anticipating the lighting needs of the occupants across different parts of the house. Smart lighting also uses certain connections to link your different lighting systems to your smartphone so you can easily operate them.

Traditional lighting systems operate purely based on manual operation or can be pre-set for a specific time. Smart lighting goes a lot further than that and uses specific smart technologies to measure when lighting is really necessary or superfluous, for example at dusk or dawn.

With WiFi this is possible through a connection with a central unit to which all devices can be connected. With Bluetooth this is a direct connection between your smartphone and the lighting devices or also through a central unit, which is the case with Bluetooth mesh.

Sensor technology can also be added to this which makes it possible to detect movement or the presence of people to adjust the lighting. For example, you can dim the lights or the opposite, turn on extra lighting in a specific room depending on the need at that time. The lighting can also remain controllable with a push button, but this can also be included in the wireless network and applied or moved to the most appropriate location.

Because smart lighting always takes into account the necessary lighting on the one hand and specific other factors in the room on the other, you will save a lot of energy in the long term. No more unnecessary light wastage and a lot less energy consumption with smart Residential Lighting solutions.
