Lighting design awareness is emerging! •Lighting design is nolonger the previlege of hotels or shopping malls. •New technologies had improved lighting control system to be easy to use & home applicable. •In the old times, you may only dim incandescent or halogen at home, but never CFL & fluorescent tubes, for the restriction of technology, feasibility & complexity of system.
LED favoured to home automation - LED tubes replace traditional fluorescent tubes, they are flexible & easy to install in troughs & are dimmable - LED could in in various of shape & forms, accent & ambience lighting which covers most of lighting design aspects - Increase of LED usage has bring to varies of lighting design possibilities - Flexibility of LED allows innovative lighting design & arouses attention - Operation principle of LED matches with control system’s digital language - Dimmability is the cornerstone of home automation
Function of home lighting: - Illumination - Mood control - Space differentiation - Change of space function (multi functional rooms)
Realisation: - Light & shade - Intensity of light - Colour temperature - Direction of light - Dimming - ‌etc

LIGHTING CONTROL the cornerstone of home automation Ask a home automation enthusiast what first interested him or her in the technology, and nine out of ten people will say it was to control home lighting. From the first time someone uses the remote control to dim the light across the room, most people are hooked on automated lighting systems.
LIGHTING CONTROL the cornerstone of home automation - User interfaces - Optimization on LED Dimming - Customization - Lighting Scenes - Applications
User Interfaces Now that you can control virtually anything, you get to decide how you want to control them: a remote with GUI on the TV, a smartphone/tablet, PC, a keypad, a touch screen, anytime and anywhere. .
Optimization on LED Dimming LED dimming range can be very limited, they may flicker or “Dead travel� when dimmed at certain level, however we can dim smarter by some easy setting on home automation system to optimize dimming performance.
More customization More customization can be made via home automation system, such as preset brightness level, ramp up/down time, even the backlight’s color and brightness on the dimmer.
Scenes and Application We can achieve a specific lighting mood by lighting scene, that represent a collection of setting that are optimal for particular activity, “Entertaining” scene, “Reading” scene on living room and “Wakeup” and “Sleep In” in bedroom. This also make the walls more elegant by using less dimmers/switches.
Applications Home automation system is NOT only a universal remote controller, it is your home with a brain, it can communicate with all systems on your home and make them work together to enrich your comfort.

Dimming & On/off fade times Home automation dimmers allow for programmable on/off fade times. Conventional lights go to full brightness (or darkness) almost immediately when activated.

LET’S TRY!
This harsh
transition is difficult on your eyes and takes a moment for your pupils to re-adjust. Home automation dimmers allow you to set the speed at which your light goes to full power or turns off (known as ramp or fade speed).

Let’s do it again.
Remembering your dimmer positions Another feature of home automation dimmers is pre-set on levels. Setting a custom brightness level becomes useful when the dimmer can remember your favorite dimmer position. Home automation dimmers are programmable to pre-set levels so the light turns on to the desired brightness every time you use it.

Scene setting Scene programming is particularly useful with home lighting. Using scenes, it is possible to turn several lights on (to various levels) while turning other lights off at the same time. Another way to think of scenes is as mood lighting. For example, to set the stage for a romantic dinner, pressing one button can set the overhead candelabra light at 50% brightness and turn off other lights in the room or vicinity. If applying dynamic white lighting – the mixture of different colour temperature, lighting in home automation could perform more dramatically.
At dining room, it could be as simple as‌
Or as complicated as‌.

Dimming & LEDs Dimming is the soul of lighting deisgn of home automation. Compatible lamp sources with dimmer system & home automation system which speak in the same signal language is the one and only way.
