Meticulous Illumination Controller for Visual Comfort Using Wireless Sensor

Abstract

This finding will enable precise illumination control of a focus area of any working plane or environment through a wireless sensor to ensure visual comfort. The proposed design will give user the provision to control illumination in the form of duty cycle through a keypad, which can vary from 0 to 100 percent, thereby giving the opportunity to find the exact illumination as per IES recommendation by analyzing the value of lux shown on the LCD display which is actually the illumination received on the focus area of the working plane. Based on this concept, programs were written, verified and uploaded through arduino IDE. Two arduino microcontrollers were used to guide all the integrated hardwires.
