Patent
CA 2521457
The present invention relates to a sensor system having a video camera and an evaluation unit, the evaluation unit receiving a video signal from the video camera and providing output information relating to luminance and movement of an observation space. The evaluation unit can include a microcontroller that undertakes calculations in order to provide the output information. However, the sensor system can be included in a light control system. The invention also relates to a method for controlling an artificial light component of controllable light sources by means of a light control system. The method comprises the following steps: picking up a video signal by a video camera, relaying the video signal to the input of the evaluation unit, evaluating the video signal with reference to luminance and movement in the evaluation unit, outputting the information relating to luminance and movement at the output of the evaluation unit to a control unit and setting a desired brightness of the controllable light sources by means of the control unit.
