Design and Testing of an Illuminance Management System
نویسنده
چکیده
Students ; , the professor, and eight systems engineering advisors for a class project in the fall of 2009 designed a light management system for an operations room for astronomers on Mauna Kea on top of Hawaii. For these astronomers who need constant illumination, BIMS is a light and energy management system that will make them more comfortable and productive, and will save money. Unlike conventional lights and blinds, BIMS will automatically control the illuminance in the room when the sun’s or the moon’s light rays change. The documentation for this design is lengthy; it has been condensed for this article: Parts that do not concern test and evaluation have been eliminated.
