  • Publication number: 20260282192
    Abstract: Provided is a remote-controlled lighting system, which includes a remote controller, at least one lighting fixture, and a controller configured for each lighting fixture. A dip switch component is used to provide a unique identification for a corresponding lighting fixture. The remote control is provided with control buttons and gear selection buttons. Each gear selection button is used to send a target gear remote control command carrying a corresponding button identifier to the main control unit. When the button identifier in a received target gear remote control command matches a current identity identifier of the corresponding lighting fixture, the main control unit responds to the control command of the control button to drive the corresponding lighting fixture to perform a corresponding lighting action. Thus, the configuration and maintenance cost of lighting zoning is reduced, and the lighting area division can be adjusted without rewiring.

  • Patent number: 12704612
    Abstract: Described herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for triggering a sensor operation of a second sensor (e.g., a camera) based on a predicted time of alignment with a first sensor (e.g., a LiDAR), where operation of the second sensor is simulated to determine the predicted time of alignment. In this manner, the sensor data captured by the two sensors is ensured to be substantially synchronized with respect to the physical environment being sensed. This sensor data synchronization based on predicted alignment of the sensors solves the technical problem of lack of sensor coordination and sensor data synchronization that would otherwise result from the latency associated with communication between sensors and a centralized controller and/or between sensors themselves.
