Tvilight is a Dutch company that dedicates
its efforts to develop intelligent dynamic lighting control units for street lights.
The first project I developed with Tvilight was the design of a smart lighting control
unit that would be integrated in new luminaries.
The solution uses radar technology (microwave sensors) to detect motion,
Zigbee communication protocol for shortdistance data transmission, PWM (Pulse width modulation) to control the light
intensity, and it also allows control over RGB LED lamps (can control the light colour).
The circuitry is enclosed in a high performance plastic casing (PET reinforced
with glass fibre) that allows radio wave transmissions (for sensors and zigbee),
which provides fixtures and adjustment
mechanisms necessary to integrate it inside a new lamp, replacing a traditional ballast.
