Artificial intelligence in lighting: innovative solutions for home and flat
Technology is constantly evolving, introducing innovations in various areas of life. One area where artificial intelligence is significantly changing the standards is home lighting. Lighting and electrical systems equipped with advanced motion and twilight sensors are becoming an integral part of systems, enhancing not only comfort but also safety.
Motion sensors and home security
Besides being a state-of-the-art solution, motion sensors are also an effective way to improve home security. They are now available in almost all luminaires - you can choose a version with or without a sensor. Or you can opt for a separate motion sensor and connect it to the installation. Due to their ability to detect movement in rooms, these can automatically switch the lighting on and off, depending on the activity of the household members. When motion is detected in an unexpected location, such as in external corridors or the hallway, the lighting immediately activates, potentially deterring intruders. In addition, well-lit surroundings will minimise the risk of tripping or falling at night. Motion sensors are therefore becoming not only part of intelligent lighting systems, but also an effective tool for increasing the level of security at home. You can opt for classic overhead lighting, such as the Kanlux BENO LED SE ceiling-mounted light which has an adjustable motion sensor, or opt for modern Kanlux LED APUS staircase led light.
Twilight sensors for energy savings
Twilight sensors are high-tech solutions that enable the optimum use of light according to natural conditions. They enable bulbs to intelligently adjust their brightness according to the level of available external light. In practice, this means that when the sensor registers a decrease in light intensity, the lamp light becomes brighter or switches on. This is not only an environmentally friendly approach to energy use, but also a significant saving on electricity bills. A good solution would be to mount an IDEAL TS by Kanlux TH35 AZ-10 A twilight sensor, to which you can connect the installation circuits of your choice - consult an electrician.
More and more, we search for solutions that improve not only security, but also the comfort of daily life. Intelligent lighting systems can contribute to this. At Kanlux, we implement systems that are designed to make it as easy as possible to function at home - voice control, creation of personalised scenarios, energy saving or modern security systems are just some of them.
Kanlux SMART: solutions of the future
Kanlux SMART does not only include traditional smartphone controlled lighting, but also advanced functions tailored to your needs.
Voice control
Kanlux SMART light bulbs are compatible with the main voice assistants (e.g Amazon Alexa or Google Home), allowing easy control of lighting using voice commands.
Schedules
The ability to programme lighting schedules allows you to adapt the lights to your daily rhythm of life, which contributes to energy savings. The number of scenarios is virtually unlimited. You can programme the schedules according to your preferences, following the IFTTT principle ("If this then that"), e.g. if the sensor detects a door opening, the light in the main rooms will automatically switch on, the heating will switch on after 10 minutes and the coffee machine will switch on after 30 minutes.
Integration with security systems
You can pair the Kanlux SMART bulbs with other devices and thus increase the security level of your home by lighting up appropriately in the event that danger is detected. In addition, the application will notify you whenever a door or window is opened or when smoke or flooding occurs. All of this with Kanlux SMART sensors.
Energy consumption monitoring
With the option of energy consumption monitoring, you can consciously control the costs associated with lighting, as well as with other appliances. Kanlux SMART sockets provide information on power consumption.
Smart lighting is a step into the future. Artificial intelligence is becoming not only a facilitator, but also a tool to improve safety and energy efficiency. Lamps with motion and twilight sensors, as well as intelligent lighting systems, such as Kanlux SMART, are perfect examples of how modern technology can have a positive impact on everyday life. It is worth investing in good quality high-end solutions - this ensures that the solutions will last for years, fulfilling their purpose, which is extremely important, especially in terms of security and savings.
