1. An apparatus for affecting change in a target by using an integrated lighting system, the apparatus comprising:

  • a light source assembly including a plurality of LEDs having one or more parameters and being configured to provide lighting, wherein each of the plurality of LEDs are individually integrated in the assembly;

    a sensor configured to detect at least one lighting condition from the target and/or the light source assembly, wherein the target is an object, including an organism, and one of the lighting conditions detected from the target is whether or not the target is present; and

    a control system operably connectable to the light source assembly and the sensor, wherein the control system intelligently controls the amount and type of light provided to the target by controlling each of the plurality of LEDs and the sensor individually;

    wherein when the sensor detects the lighting condition from the target and/or the light source assembly, the sensor sends a signal representing a detected lighting condition to the control system;

    wherein upon receiving the signal from the sensor, the control system compares the detected lighting condition to a desired lighting condition; and

    wherein if the detected lighting condition is different from the desired lighting condition, the control system adjusts the one or more parameters of the light source assembly.
