One of the key new features of connected lighting systems (CLS) is their ability to collect
data from various types of integral sensors and share that data with other lighting or building …

Occupancy information is critical for buildings, as it can substantially impact energy
consumption. However, occupancy is highly unpredictable, and depends on occupants' …

With the emergence of advanced occupancy sensor technologies to better detect occupancy
in buildings, a universal methodology and metrics are required to evaluate and report …

In automatic lighting control systems, there can be considerable uncertainty associated with
the determination of occupancy using single-point sensing, resulting in lights switching off …

A new occupancy detection sensor network was developed, commissioned and installed in
two private offices: data were collected to evaluate the utility of the sensor network for …

Buildings are an essential part of our lives and thus are designed to provide a safe,
comfortable, and healthy indoor environment in which we work and live. However, buildings …

The energy performance of commercial buildings is greatly influenced by occupants which
are highly variable and among the most unpredictable components of a building's operation …

This paper reviews the literature on occupancy-based lighting control as a prelude to the
application of sensor networks to building management. Many buildings include systems to …

This paper summarizes results from a research program investigating the development and
application of sensor networks to lighting control and building energy management …

With roughly about half of the energy used in buildings attributed to Heating, Ventilation, and
Air conditioning (HVAC) systems, there is clearly great potential for energy saving through …
