Offering a greater level of efficiency and control than traditional setups, classroom smart lighting fixtures bring significant benefits. Some of the available features are:
Bluetooth control: Rather than operating fixtures individually with switches throughout the building or classroom, smartphone apps and other connected devices give educators and facility managers the ability to control the entire property from a single place.
Occupancy sensing: So much energy is wasted from lights left on when no one needs them. With motion sensors, lights can switch themselves off automatically when no one is detected in the room.
Daylight harvesting: Many classrooms have large windows that let in a lot of natural daylight. Smart illumination systems can detect this light and adjust the artificial illumination accordingly, ensuring no unnecessary energy is consumed.
Time scheduling: Administrators can schedule lights to be turned on only if they are needed. This prevents lights from staying on accidentally when no one is present.
Group editing: Older systems require large groups of lights to be on or off at the same time, regardless of how many are actually required. Smart lighting solutions, however, allow for each fixture to be controlled independently. For instance, teachers can create an appropriate lighting plan for every room or activity.
Scene selection: The ability to control the brightness and intensity of each LED means teachers and administrators can illuminate each space according to need. Dimmed lights for quiet time or playing videos; brighter lights to counteract the mid-afternoon energy slump.
