Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lighting system in which personal settings and functions are accessed and activated using a biometric sensor.
  • the EP 3 166 370 A1 discloses a system in which a person is assigned a specific brightness of a lamp, a specific dimming sequence, a specific color temperature or a specific lighting scene concept and the person is identified using one or more of their fingerprints in order to retrieve the settings and functions assigned to them . to activate.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a device and a method which reduce the problems described.
  • the task is, in particular, to provide a lighting system with which individual settings and functions can be accessed and activated in a simple, anonymized and yet repeatable manner.
  • a lighting system has at least one operating device for lighting devices, a control device for controlling the operating device and a biometric sensor for detecting at least one fingerprint of a person.
  • the control device is set up to assign an operating parameter and/or a first control command for controlling the operating device to the fingerprint or a hash value generated from the fingerprint and to control the operating device on the basis of the operating parameter or the first control command.
  • control device compares anatomical features of the fingerprint recorded by the biometric sensor with stored features to which the operating parameter or the control command is assigned or calculates the hash value from the anatomical features (input value) using a cryptological hash function (one-way function) and compares this with a stored one Hash value to which the operating parameter or control command is assigned.
  • the saved ones can be different Individual operating parameters and/or control commands can be assigned to fingerprints/hash values.
  • the operating parameter or control command can be assigned directly to the captured fingerprint, it is not necessary to store any further personal information. If only the hash value is stored, from which the input value (fingerprint) cannot be reconstructed, only anonymized, system-specific information can be obtained from the system, which cannot be used or misused for other applications.
  • the operating device which can be controlled by the control device, generates the currents and voltages required for the lamp to operate.
  • the operating device can be, for example, an electronic ballast (EVG) for fluorescent lamps or an operating device for light-emitting diodes.
  • EDG electronic ballast
  • the operating parameter or the first control command can be a parameter or command for setting a specific color temperature, a specific brightness or for activating a specific light scene for a group of lights, for controlling the light tailored to the daylight or its course, or for carrying out a dimming -Operation with a specific dimming progression. It is also possible to assign multiple operating parameters and/or control commands to a fingerprint, such as assigning one or more operating parameters and/or control commands to a specific color temperature in combination with a specific brightness or a specific dimming profile and/or a combination of fingerprints. When a specific fingerprint is recognized, these multiple parameters and/or control commands can then be implemented together.
  • the biometric sensor can be integrated into a switch or button assigned to the operating device, so that the biometric sensor detects the fingerprint immediately when the switch or button is pressed.
  • the fingerprint sensor can also serve as a button, with the recognition of the fingerprint itself being counted as a keystroke. This makes it possible to set the parameters with a single action when switching on. This avoids the double effort that would be required if a general switch-on had to take place first, followed by an identification of a person in order to implement the desired control commands or parameters.
  • the biometric sensor can be located on the switch cover of the (mechanical) switch or button, be part of the switch cover or itself be designed as a touch-sensitive electronic button (touch sensor).
  • control device is not a central control device, but a local control device, for example for an individual room or in particular a single device (light).
  • control device can be integrated in the switch or button (e.g. a wall switch) or a light (e.g. a wall/ceiling light), which also has the operating device.
  • the lighting system can be a person-operable lamp, such as a floor or desk lamp.
  • the control device can be designed as a processor, a microprocessor, a controller, a microcontroller or an application-specific special circuit (ASIC) or a combination of the units mentioned.
  • ASIC application-specific special circuit
  • the lighting system for transmission has a bus system according to the DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) or DALI-2 standard/protocol for building automation. At least the control command to the operating device can be transmitted using the bus system.
  • DALI Digital Addressable Lighting Interface
  • DALI-2 Digital Addressable Lighting Interface
  • control device can be a DALI-2 “application controller” that assigns a virtual button to each stored or recognized fingerprint or hash value, for which a specific function is in turn assigned. This function is then output in the form of the control command via the DALI bus to the operating device for further processing.
  • DALI-2 application controller
  • a fingerprint or hash value can also be assigned a specific control command or a specific device identifier for a device that is external to the lighting system.
  • a device can be a fan, a switchable socket, a tablet or a personal computer.
  • the control command or identifier is preferably sent wirelessly to the device by means of a transmitting device (Bluetooth beacon), the control device determining the (second) control command assigned to the captured fingerprint or the hash value generated from the fingerprint for controlling the external device.
  • Bluetooth beacon Bluetooth beacon
  • the assignment can also be dependent on the first control signal, so that, for example, the second control command results in a blocking or idle state for the staff Computer causes when the first control command is a lights-off command and causes the personal computer to turn on or start up when the first control command is a lights-on command.
  • each stored fingerprint or hash value can be assigned a specific device (device address) or a specific group of devices to which the control command/identifier is to be sent.
  • the lighting system can have a memory device in which at least the fingerprints or hash values to be captured are stored with the associated operating parameters and/or control commands.
  • the storage device can be part of the control device or the biometric sensor. The association between the operating parameters and/or the control commands and the fingerprints or hash values is clear.
  • the lighting system in particular the control device or the biometric sensor, can have a wired or wireless communication interface for an input device, by means of which the operating parameters, control commands, fingerprints or hash values can be entered and/or changed.
  • the storage device such as a memory card, can be removed from the system for storing or changing the data.
  • the input device can be a PC, smartphone or tablet on which an application program (app) is installed, with which a person defines individual operating parameters and/or control commands and the associated or their fingerprint, from which the hash value is possibly calculated by the input device will, enters. This means that no third party is involved in the entry, which can further increase anonymity.
  • the assignment of operating parameters and/or control commands to a fingerprint or hash value can be carried out during operation or in a configuration mode by the lighting system itself, wherein during operation during an operation by a person to set a specific lighting state (e.g. a specific brightness ) the fingerprint used for this purpose (or the hash value calculated from it) as well as the operating parameters and / or control commands to achieve the desired lighting state are recorded by the control device and stored in an assigned manner.
  • the control device can set the specific lighting state (e.g. switching on with the specific brightness) without the person having to carry out the setting operation (e.g. dimming operation) again. So each person can have their last Retrieve the setting (lighting status), even if another person has made a different setting (lighting status) in the meantime.
  • the described capture and storage can only take place when the lighting system is in a specific mode (configuration mode) in order to avoid unintentional changes and/or to limit the group of people to whom configurations are permitted.
  • the configuration mode can be triggered for a certain period of time by pressing a button, which may only be accessible via a small opening, similar to a reset button.
  • the control device determines the operating parameter or the control command as described and assigns it to the fingerprint recorded by the biometric sensor or the hash value generated from the fingerprint.
  • control device can automatically activate the configuration mode if no operating parameter or control command is yet assigned to the fingerprint captured by the biometric sensor or to the hash value generated from the fingerprint. This can be done automatically when a fingerprint is checked, since each fingerprint is first checked for an associated storage of parameters or control commands. If such a check is not successful, this means that no parameter or control command has yet been assigned to the fingerprint (hash value) currently being used.
  • the control device can be set up to control the orientation of the fingerprint with respect to the biometric sensor, the period of time during which the biometric sensor detects the fingerprint, the time interval between two or more detected fingerprints, the number of fingerprints simultaneously detected by the biometric sensor and/or to determine the capture of a specific fingerprint of an administrator, the control device activating the configuration mode when the determined time duration is a predetermined time period or predetermined time window, the determined distance is a predetermined distance, the determined number is a predetermined number and/or the captured fingerprint corresponds to the specific fingerprint corresponds.
  • the determined time period, the determined distance, the determined number and/or the captured fingerprint are checked to see whether a specific requirement is thereby met. Instead of an exact period of time, this could, for example, be a minimum period or something similar. The same applies to distance or any other verifiable condition.
  • the lighting system can have at least one further control device for controlling the operating device or another operating device of the lighting system.
  • the control device can transmit the fingerprint recorded in the configuration mode or the hash value generated from the fingerprint together with the assigned operating parameter or the first control command to the further control device.
