  • the deviation of the set target value of the lighting, in particular the brightness, from a target value, in particular a brightness, detected with sensor means controls or regulates an additional light output by the luminaire 10 and can also determine the selection of suitable illuminants or light emission surfaces. In the embodiment of Figure 3 this setpoint value of the lighting can be increased or decreased via separate control surfaces of the touchpad.
  • the operating means 50 can be designed to determine the activation duration of the lamp 10 after receipt of the control signal or after the selection of an operating state on the basis of the selection information (cf. safety time), for example when the presence or movement of a person or an object occurs Sensor means 40 was detected.
  • a further development also provides for activation or deactivation of at least one of the sensor means 40 via the operating means 50.
  • the switch lock can be used to optimize the use of switchable sockets. If the switch lock is deactivated, the light 10 is automatically switched on after a power failure.
  • Deactivating the automatic switch stipulates that switching on the lamp by a user is absolutely necessary to operate the lamp, so a lamp 10 with deactivated automatic switch can be temporarily excluded from activation or selection of an operating state by means of a selection signal. The selection signal is then still taken into account, in particular when the lamp 10 is switched on.
  • Energy-saving lighting for example in a large number of office workplaces, which can be easily changed, can thus be advantageous by integrating the Figures 1 to 3 described lamp can be achieved in an arrangement for light output 1000 with a variety of lights.
  • the luminaires have communication means 20 which are designed to wirelessly exchange information between the luminaires, an operating state of a luminaire 10 of the plurality of luminaires being selectable based on selection information exchanged wirelessly with the aid of the communication means 20.
  • the illustrated embodiment of the arrangement for emitting light 1000 comprises a multiplicity of luminaires which are designed for identical or similar emitting light.
  • floor lamps In the exemplary embodiment, only floor lamps according to the invention are shown. However, the invention is not limited to a large number of floor lamps, other lamps, for example table, pendant, wall or ceiling lamps, can also be provided.
  • Energy-saving operation of the arrangement for emitting light could now take place in such a way that one lamp 10 of the plurality of lamps 1000, preferably by the Switching on the luminaire 10 is selected, for example with the aid of the operating means 50, so that a control signal is generated which requires a selection signal to be sent using the communication means 20 of the selected luminaire 10.
  • the light emitted by the switched on or selected light 10 can serve for optimal illumination of the assigned work station and, for example, achieve a maximum value for the light emitted by this light 10.
  • the intensity of the lighting is primarily important for the work areas or work surfaces; however, the surrounding area can be illuminated with low intensity. For example, to save energy, it can therefore be provided that the operating state of the further luminaires differs from the operating state of the selected, switched-on luminaire.
  • the selection signal can then be such, for example, that an operating state of further lights of the plurality of lights 1000 is selected, which causes a reduced light emission of the further lights compared to a maximum value of the light output.
  • the in Figure 4 could, for example, then have only 30% of its maximum light output from the further lights activated with the aid of the selection signal, while the switched-on light emits 100% of its maximum light output. In the exemplary embodiment described, this interaction should still require sufficient illumination of the surroundings of the switched-on lamp 10 and at the same time enable energy-saving operation of the room lighting.
  • a further development could also provide that a setpoint value for the lighting is varied depending on the distance of the luminaire to the sending location of the selection information. This could be achieved, for example, by evaluating the signal strength of the received selection signal and selecting an appropriate operating state. For example, the intensity of the illumination could decrease depending on the distance of the luminaire to the sending location of the selection information.
  • the wirelessly transmitted selection signal can be received in a radiation area 100 of the communication means 20, so that lights 10 of the plurality of lights 1000 arranged in this area select and activate an operating state corresponding to the selection signal.
  • the radiation area 100 of the communication means is preferably adaptable. With the aid of the radiation area 100, which, for example, is designed to be adaptable only for the selection signal, it can thus be determined in a simple manner which lamps of the multiplicity of lamps contribute to further lighting the surroundings of the switched on or selected lamp 10. In particular, this means that the communication means 20 have no repeater functionality, ie do not emit a received signal again, for example in order to increase the range of the received signal and thus the emission range 100. If necessary, it can be provided that a corresponding repeater functionality is designed to be explicitly selectable, that is, a repeater functionality can be switched off.
  • a further development provides that the operation of the plurality of lights is controlled or regulated by sensor means 50, which are designed, for example, to detect the presence or movement of people or objects.
  • a corresponding embodiment is shown in Figure 5 shown.
  • a large number of floor lamps designed in accordance with the invention serve to illuminate a work area, in particular an office.
  • One or more of the plurality of lights, preferably all lights have sensor means 40 - in this case a PIR sensor - which are designed to detect the presence or movement of a person or an object.
  • sensor means 40 for detecting the ambient brightness, for example a photodiode or a CCD sensor.
  • a selection of a luminaire can now be made by a detection signal of a person or an object, which is generated by the sensor means 40.
  • the luminaires 10 arranged in a radiation area 100, activated by selection information, contribute to illuminating the surroundings of the selected luminaire 10.
  • the basic lighting required for moving objects or people can thus be limited to a small area around the person or object, so that energy-saving lighting is realized.
  • the detection areas of the sensor means 50 of a plurality of the plurality of lights particularly preferably overlap, so that the lighting can follow the movement of a person or an object, and a general lighting of the room or office as a whole can be omitted since the person or the object is always in the detection range of sensor means 50. A so-called “swarm formation” of the lighting is thus realized.
  • the luminaires can cooperate in such a way that when an object or a person is detected by sensor means 50, a selection signal is sent again after a period of time.
  • the selection signal last received and interpreted thus determines the operating state of the lights of the plurality of lights activated by a selection signal. If a new selection signal is not received after a safety time has elapsed, the luminaires that are only activated via a selection signal select a standard operating mode or standard operating state. In particular, this can be the "stand-by mode" described above.
  • the safety time is preferably configurable and can differ from a likewise configurable time period for the automatic switch-off of a selected lamp, for example switched on by means of operating means 50, in particular falling short of this.
  • a setpoint value for the lighting If the contribution of the luminaires to lighting is determined by a setpoint value for the lighting, it could now additionally be provided that compliance with the lighting setpoint value is regulated or controlled on the basis of an ambient brightness detected with the aid of the sensor means 40. This could mean, for example, that if a setpoint value for the lighting is exceeded, for example in daylight, there is no additional light output from the luminaires selected or activated by a selection signal. In this way, energy-saving lighting can be realized, which in turn can be flexibly changed.
