  2. Time switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_switch

    The timer may switch equipment on, off, or both, at a preset time or times, after a preset interval, or cyclically. A countdown time switch switches power, usually off, after a preset time. A cyclical timer switches equipment both on and off at preset times over a period, then repeats the cycle; the period is usually 24 hours or 7 days.

  3. Photo-lab timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photo-lab_timer

    There is a type of automatic timer manufactured by Kaiser, Philips, and others that by means of a photoelectric sensor (like the one in the photo or mounted inside the easel), is capable of regulating the exposure time according to the light projected by the enlarger, through the negative, on the photographic paper, magnitude inversely ...

  4. Lighting control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighting_control_system

    A complete sensor consists of a motion detector, an electronic control unit, and a controllable switch/relay. The detector senses motion and determines whether there are occupants in the space. [9] It also has a timer that signals the electronic control unit after a set period of inactivity.

  5. Daylighting (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylighting_(architecture)

    Continuous daylight autonomy, is similar to daylight autonomy but partial credit is attributed to time steps when the daylight illuminance lies below the minimum illuminance level. [43] For example, if the target illuminance is 400 lux and the calculated value is 200 lux, daylight autonomy would give zero credit, while continuous daylight ...

  6. Visible light communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_light_communication

    Visible light is only a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. In telecommunications, visible light communication (VLC) is the use of visible light (light with a frequency of 400–800 THz/wavelength of 780–375 nm) as a transmission medium. VLC is a subset of optical wireless communications technologies.

  7. Daylight harvesting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_harvesting

    The code encourages automatic daylight harvesting in secondary zones by awarding power adjustment factor credits that can be applied to the lighting design. [23] The 2009 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) recognizes daylight zones around vertical fenestration and skylights, and requires that the lighting in these zones be controlled ...

  8. Ambient light sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambient_light_sensor

    The ambient light sensor of a Google Pixel 4a smartphone under a microscope. An ambient light sensor is a component in smartphones, notebooks, other mobile devices, automotive displays and LCD TVs. It is a photodetector that is used to sense the amount of ambient light present, and appropriately dim the device's screen to match it.

  9. Standard illuminant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_illuminant

    The CIE positions D65 as the standard daylight illuminant: [D65] is intended to represent average daylight and has a correlated colour temperature of approximately 6500 K. CIE standard illuminant D65 should be used in all colorimetric calculations requiring representative daylight, unless there are specific reasons for using a different illuminant.
