Abstract
A lighting system (100) includes a lighting module (110) configured to accept a light source, and a controller (120) configured to be linkable to the lighting module (110). A link between the controller (120) and lighting module (110) is establishable by exchanging between the controller (120) and lighting module (110) at least one of a module link identity of the lighting module and a controller link identity of the controller. The link may be establishable based on a gesture including pointing the controller (120) to the lighting module (110), touching the controller (120) to the lighting module (110), and/or selecting the lighting module (110) from a display.
