1. A method for controlling a brightness of a monitored space having a targeted object therein, comprising the steps of:
- acquiring a brightness information of the monitored space;
acquiring an objective brightness corresponding to a behavioral state of the targeted object by inquiring a stored relationship of the objective brightness from a data base, wherein the objective brightness is an expectative brightness for the monitored space while the targeted object is under the behavioral state; and
determining whether the brightness of the monitored space needs to be adjusted based on the brightness information and the objective brightness.

Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to the method and system which use an image caught by a photographic device for calculating a brightness of a space and acquiring a state of an object, and adjust the illuminant device and/or the shading device for the space to make the brightness of the space achieve the proper level.
