Publication number: 20160374182Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for lighting control. For example, a user may commission a touch-controlled luminaire (106) to emit light output having various lighting properties dependent on a manner in which the touch-controlled luminaire is touched subsequently. In particular, a user may use an electronic mobile device (102) such as a smart phone, tablet computer, or a wearable computing device (e.g., computing glasses, smart watches) to associate a touch event profile indicative of a manner in which a touch-controlled luminaire was touched (e.g., tapped, swiped, etc.) with a lighting control action. The user may then provide that association to the touch-controlled luminaire. When the touch-controlled luminaire is later touched in the same manner, it may adjust its light output in accordance with the lighting control action. Operation and commission of gesture-controlled luminaires (706) is also described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2015Publication date: December 22, 2016Inventors: PHILIP STEVEN NEWTON, TIM DEKKER, RAMON ANTOINE WIRO CLOUT, DZMITRY VIKTOROVICH ALIAKSEYEU, TATIANA ALEKSANDROVNA LASHINA, DIRK VALENTINUS REN ENGELEN
