SMART LIGHT ADAPTER WITH ENGERY MEASUREMENT CAPABILITY

摘要

A Smart Light Adapter with energy measurement and control capabilities is described herein. The smart light adapter enables a user to control, monitor and manage their lights and their energy consumption both locally and remotely by taking advantage of an onboard integrated Wi-Fi and implemented algorithms. The user can send control commands to the smart light adapter via an application installed on a mobile device. The smart light adapter connects to already deployed Wi-Fi router at user location to use it as a bridge to communicate between the user, cloud and itself. Consequently; it eliminates the need of any additional hub or concentrator which is a primary requirement in ZigBee, Z-Wave or similar technology. The onboard power management unit ensures optimal use of power by the device. The onboard energy measurement unit measures the actual energy consumption of relevant light to show the actual usage statistics and relevant costs to the user.
