Method for guiding a human to a reference location, and lighting system comprising a plurality of light sources for use in such method

摘要

The invention provides a method for intuitively guiding a human to a reference location, such as an emergency exit, with a lighting system comprising a plurality of light sources along a pathway to the reference location. The lights shine with an intensity dependent upon the distance to the reference location, in particular the intensity of the light increases with decreasing distance to the reference location. The location of the emergency can be determined through emergency sensors, so that the intensity of the light sources is then controlled to lead away from the danger to the nearest safe exit.

主权项

1. A method for intuitively guiding a human to a reference location with a lighting system, wherein the reference location comprises an emergency exit, and wherein the lighting system comprises a plurality of light sources, each having an emergency lighting function and a general lighting function, and wherein the lighting system further comprises a control unit configured to control the light intensity of the individual light sources as function of the distance of the individual light sources to the reference location, by providing with the light sources along a pathway to the reference location light with an intensity dependent upon the distance to the reference location, wherein the intensity of the light increases with decreasing distance to the reference location.
