In the passive dimming method, it is common that the user directly adjusts the level of the dimming level through the switch to increase or decrease the dimming level.

In recent years, a method of controlling LED dimming has also appeared by constructing a system using a central control (remote control) system based on a ubiquitous sensor network (USN) based system configuration.

Korean Patent Publication No. 2012-0069035 discloses an intelligent LED lighting control method for power energy management of a USN-based indoor / outdoor lighting capable of selectively adjusting the dimming level according to the intention and the situation of an administrator, The above technique can automatically control the dimming level of the lighting apparatus by using the illuminance sensor and can set the illuminance value differently according to the season and the time, There is an advantage that the level can be adjusted.

However, although the prior art has the effect of reducing power consumption by adjusting the dimming level according to the ambient illuminance, it does not take into consideration the dynamic factors such as moving or going out of a person located in the room, .

On the other hand, in order to reduce power consumption, a sensor for reducing electric power by attaching an infrared sensor to a luminaire and turning off the lamp when an object is not detected through an infrared sensor is widely used.

However, the conventional sensor or the like is simply turned on or off according to whether an object moves around a sensor or the like, and intelligent lighting control considering the movement path of a person is not achieved.

The controller 14 detects the moving path of the moving body in the room based on the detection signals of the respective moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 and detects the moving direction of the moving body in the indoor lighting mode, In the case where there is no one in the room, the control unit controls each of the lighting units 10 and 20 to operate in any one of a power saving mode and a security mode for monitoring whether or not there is an outside intrusion. In the case where an outside intrusion is detected in the security mode, .

The second illumination unit 10 includes an LED lamp 21 for indoor illumination, a moving body detection sensor 22 for detecting movement of a moving body, and a wireless transmission / reception unit 23 for wireless data transmission / reception. The moving body detection signal detected by the moving body detection sensor 22 is transmitted to the first illumination unit 10 through the wireless transmission / reception unit 23.

In FIG. 2, the case where the controller is mounted on the first illumination unit 10 is described. However, the controller may not be installed in the illumination unit, but may be installed in a different position in the room.

Although it has been described that data transmission / reception between each illumination unit and the controller is performed by the wireless transmission / reception unit, it is needless to say that data may also be transmitted through a wired communication method.

In FIG. 1, a plurality of lighting units 10 and 20 are installed to detect a moving path of a person in a room. It is preferable that the lighting units 10 and 20 are installed at main positions such as each room, toilet room, Do.

Here, the illuminating unit 10 and the moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 may be separately installed. In this case, the moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 may be installed in a larger amount so as to more accurately detect the moving path of the moving body. It is possible.

When the movement of the moving body corresponding to the second path set in advance in the crime prevention mode is detected, a predetermined countermeasure is performed.

The response may include a method of sending an alarm message to the user terminal 40, a method of turning off all the lights in the room and keeping the lighting devices in the unlit state even when a lighting switch operation signal is input, A method of allowing the occurrence of an emergency situation to be recognized from the outside, a method of causing an alarm siren to occur, and the like.

However, these methods are likely to occur when a mistake of external intrusion is recognized, especially when there is a person in the home, but it is recognized as being out. In such a case, the controller 14 If it is determined that an external intrusion has occurred, the camera 30 installed in the room is driven to photograph an image of the moving body where the motion has occurred, and transmits the photographed image to the user terminal 40 to determine whether the moving body is an intruder If it is confirmed that it is an intruder after confirming, it is preferable that the above-mentioned countermeasures are executed.

Alternatively, when the intrusion is detected, the infrared camera operates in a state in which all the indoor lights are turned off, and the captured image is taken to the user terminal 40 to minimize the damage caused by the intrusion, So that it can be confirmed accurately.

Fig. 3 exemplarily shows a first movement route for entering the outgoing mode on the indoor floor plan.

The controller 14 analyzes the moving line of the moving body based on the detection signals of the moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 and determines that the user goes out when it is determined that the moving body moves along the first moving route, .

3 shows a route through which the user moves from the room R3 to the entrance hall through the kitchen and the living room, and the controller 14 displays the route, If the user does not detect the movement for a predetermined time after the user moves to the glare mode, it is determined that the user has gone out and enters the security mode.

When the user moves in this movement path, the user senses the movement of the user in the order of the illumination unit 20h, the illumination unit 20i, the illumination unit 10, and the illumination unit 20g. If it is detected, it is judged that the user goes out. The first movement path for entering the security mode may have various patterns other than that shown in FIG. 3. In a simple form, after moving from the living room to the entrance, all the moving body detection sensors in the room detect no movement for a predetermined time There is a way to enter the crime prevention mode.

Fig. 4 exemplarily shows a second movement path for intrusion detection on the indoor floor plan.

The controller 14 analyzes the moving line of the moving body on the basis of the detection signals of the moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 detected in the crime mode and determines that the moving body moves along the second moving path, It is determined that it has occurred and a countermeasure is taken.

4 shows a route in which the intruder moves from the veranda to the living room and the second room R2. The controller 14 controls the moving route Veranda -> living room -> When moving along a moving path of a room, it is judged that an intruder of an outside person has occurred and a countermeasure is executed.

The controller 14 detects the movement of the intruder in the order of the illuminating unit 20b → the illuminating unit 20d → the illuminating unit 10 → the illuminating unit 20j, When a path pattern is detected, it is judged that an outsider has entered. The second movement path for entering the security mode may have various patterns other than those shown in FIG. 4. For example, it is defined as a movement path of a veranda -> living room -> room, In a simpler form, it is also possible to determine that an intrusion of an outsider has occurred when movement of the fuselage is detected on the veranda in the state of entering the security mode.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a process of performing an indoor lighting control method according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the controller 14 receives a moving body detection signal from each of the moving body detecting sensors 12 and 22 (S10).

The controller 14 analyzes the moving path of the moving body on the basis of the detection signal received from each of the moving object detection sensors 12 and 22 (S20). If the moving path of the moving object does not satisfy the preset first path, And operates in the indoor lighting mode (S30).

If the movement of the moving body is not detected in the room for a certain period of time after the moving body moves along the predetermined first path based on the detection signal received from each of the moving body detection sensors 12 and 22, And enters the security mode (S40). When entering the security mode, the controller 14 turns off all the indoor lights, thereby preventing unnecessary power consumption and monitoring whether there is an intruder.

The external intrusion monitoring is performed through whether or not there is a movement of the moving body along a second predetermined path (S50). If the movement of the moving object is detected in the security mode but the moving path of the moving object does not satisfy the preset second path, it is determined that there is still a person in the room and the room lighting mode is entered again.

If the moving body moves along the predetermined second path based on the detection signal received from each of the moving body detection sensors 12 and 22, the controller 14 regards the external intrusion as occurring and performs a countermeasure (S60). As described above, the countermeasures against external intrusion include a method of transmitting an alarm message to the user terminal 40, a method of turning off all lights in the room, and maintaining the lighting devices in an unlit state even when a lighting switch operation signal is input A method in which the illumination devices are continuously blinked so that the occurrence of an emergency can be recognized from the outside, a method in which an alarm siren is generated, and the like.
