Automatic lighting control system
First Claim
1. An automatic lighting control system for predicting a movement route and showing the movement route through control of lamps, comprising:
- a camera section which is disposed on the movement route to pick up an image;
a lamp control section which controls luminance and/or turning-on/off of each of a plurality of lamps;
a DB section which stores resident information including address information and vehicle information, and route-related information;
an image recognition section which recognizes vehicle parking spot information and the vehicle information based on the image provided by the camera section and checks an actual movement route of a vehicle passenger through the image; and
a controller which determines a predicted movement route between a parking spot and a residence based on the address information extracted by matching the vehicle information provided by the image recognition section with the DB section, the parking spot information, and the route-related information, generates control information for lamps located on the predicted movement route, provides the generated control information to the lamp control section, shows the predicted movement route of the passenger through lamp control by the lamp control section, and, if the actual movement route provided by the image recognition section is different from the predicted movement route, generates control information for a different movement route according to a movement direction and replaces the generated control information for the existing control information by providing the generated control information to the lamp control section.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an automatic lighting control system, and more particularly, to an automatic lighting control system which is capable of predicting a movement route of a resident in a complex building and automatically controlling lighting located in the movement route. According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce power consumption by simplifying configuration of lamps and controlling luminance of lamps on a resident or vehicle movement route by predicting motion of the resident or the vehicle through centralized control for a plurality of lamps, and to provide increased movement convenience and emotional satisfaction of a resident by showing the resident a movement route through lamps and securing a field of view on the movement route.

14. An automatic lighting control system for predicting a movement route of a user and showing the movement route through control of lamps, comprising:
-
a camera section which picks up an image of the user; a reader which recognizes a tag of the user and transmits information of the recognized tag along with identification information of the reader; a lamp control section which controls luminance and/or turning-on/off of each of a plurality of lamps; a DB section which stores address information and route-related information corresponding to the tag information; an image recognition section which checks an actual movement route of the user through an image based on the image provided by the camera section; and a controller which obtains address information by matching the tag information received from the reader with the DB section, determines a predicted movement route based on a position of the reader corresponding to the identification information, the address information and the route-related information, generates control information for at least some lamps located on the predicted movement route, provides the generated control information to the lamp control section, shows the predicted movement route of the user through lamp control by the lamp control section, and, if the actual movement route provided by the image recognition section is different from the predicted movement route, generates control information for a different movement route according to a movement direction and replaces the generated control information for the existing control information by providing the generated control information to the lamp control section. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)
