JDRF Electromag: Autonomy Sensor - Smart Lighting

Discover the Dynamic Functionality of the Autonomy Sensor

The Autonomy Sensor is an integrated control and management device that self-organizes, configures, and optimizes an advanced Smart Lighting System. A set of Autonomy Sensors collaborate to provision a secure wireless mesh network, establish Area membership based on physical co-location, and configure motion and daylight groups through the analysis of motion patterns and daylight distribution levels, respectively. No setup or human supervision is required.


Self-Configured Motion Groups

Motions Groups are automatically self-configured based on co-location and the similarity in motion patterns among neighboring Autonomy Sensors. The Area management algorithm ensures that group membership is limited to sensors that are co-located in the same room.

Membership in a motion group is dynamic, adapting to changes in the lighting arrangement, layout of the space, and the addition, removal, replacement and relocation of sensors. The mobile application can be used to modify motion group membership.


Self-Configured Daylight Groups

Daylight Groups are automatically self-configured based on co-location and similarity of ambient lighting conditions among neighboring Autonomy Sensors. The Area management algorithm ensures that group membership is limited to sensors that are co-located in the same room.

Membership in a daylight group is dynamic, adapting to changes in the lighting arrangement, layout of the space, and the addition, removal, replacement and relocation of sensors. The mobile application can be used to modify daylight group membership.
