Once intelligent modularized illuminator 100 is assembled into close-proximity target zone and receives electrical power（As in step 316
It is described）, then method 300 proceed to step 320, step 320 includes the movement of at least one object in detection target area.One
Denier observes movement, then at least one signal is sent to controller 104 by motion detector 108.As long as ambient lighting is less than pre-
Fixed level（As detected by dusk to dawn sensor 120）, then controller 104 is handled is connect from motion detector 108
The signal of receipts, at least one signal is then sent to each in multiple lighting nodes 112 and sends at least one signal
To each adjustable installation component 116, as described above.
Step 324 includes receiving at least one signal from controller 104 and adjusting multiple illuminations in response to the signal
At least one illumination or brightness in node 112.In certain embodiments, can be predetermined extent by illumination adjustments, so as to
By the light projection of aspiration level on the object moved in target area.In certain embodiments, illumination can be from initial
Closed mode switches to opening, so as to by light projection on mobile object.It is preferable, however, that controller 104 is with desirably
Whole from the multiple lighting nodes 112 of such mode signaling of various different angles illumination mobile object.
Method 300 ends at step 328, and step 328 includes receiving at least one signal from controller 104, and passes through
Coupled adjustable installation component 116 adjusts at least one orientation in multiple lighting nodes 112.In some implementations
In example, a part for the multiple adjustable installation components 116 of the signaling of controller 104, and signaling not can adjust installation component simultaneously
Remainder.Therefore, system 100 can be directly towards a part for mobile object directional lighting node 112, and will shine simultaneously
The remainder of bright node is maintained in previous orientation.However, in certain embodiments, the signaling of controller 104 is multiple adjustable
Whole in section installation component 116 causes towards the whole lighting nodes 112 of mobile object orientation, so as to by light projection in object
Generation upper and that there is reduced shade.At least one signal can also be sent to multiple photographs by step 328 including controller 104
All or part of in bright node 112, to close lighting nodes after it have passed through predetermined amount of time.
