1. A lighting fixture for energy efficient aisle lighting in a building, comprising:
- processing electronics configured to cause the lighting fixture to provide increasing levels of illumination in response to state changes associated with sensed motion in the building, wherein the state changes comprise;
(a) a transition from a no motion state to a local motion state; and
(b) a transition from the local motion state to a sustained motion state.

9. A system for energy efficient lighting of an aisle in a building, comprising:
a plurality of lighting fixtures, wherein each of the plurality of lighting fixtures comprises a motion sensor, a transceiver, and processing electronics, and wherein the processing electronics for each lighting fixture are configured to cause the respective lighting fixture to provide increasing levels of illumination in response to state changed associated with motion sensed by the motion sensor, wherein the state changes comprise (a) a transition from a no motion state to a local motion state; and
(b) a transition from the local motion state to a sustained motion state.- View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for providing energy efficient lighting of an aisle in a building, comprising:
-
using a motion sensor and processing electronics coupled to a first lighting fixture to distinguishing between transient motion and sustained motion, wherein distinguishing between the transient motion and the sustained motion comprises determining that motion has been detected in a space for at least a predetermined period of time; at the first lighting fixture, transitioning from a transient motion state to a sustained motion state in response to a determination of sustained motion; and at the first lighting fixture, transitioning from a no motion state to a local motion state in response to a determination of local motion. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
