Summary of the related works based on the camera-based models for daylight artificial light integration.

Literature System and control strategy Photometric measurement Performance
Budhiyanto and Chiou (2022) System: LCS uses LabVIEW with real-time high dynamic range images and a digital multiplex controller to brighten lamps sequentially to provide visual comfort. Save 73–82% of electricity; The presence of daylight does not always result in more energy savings, since visual comfort needs to be considered
Varghese et al. (2019b, 2022) System: Daylight Artificial light integrated scheme with Venetian window blind and dimmable LED luminaires; Control: maximize daylight, reduce glare, and maintain desired illuminance; fuzzy control algorithm (tuned for real-time) taking inputs from image Maintained illuminance (lux) in the workplace with 5% with uniformity of 0.94; Seasonal energy savings, in comparison with uncontrolled lighting scheme
Kim et al. (2020) System: Window Shading control based on exterior Luminance; Sensor: HDRI-based camera sensor for Window, occupant positioned HDRI sensor in the interior, photometers (2) to measure vertical illuminance; Control: Automation of the roller shades using sun position and exterior Luminance data. Uniformity in interior illuminance with DGP index less than 0.3. HDRI sensor as a luminance measuring device; calibration factor not addressed; DGP index-based glare source detection; Determining a practical luminance threshold for HDRI-based control is suggested as future work; A sensor with a wider dynamic range is suggested to capture high luminance Successful in detecting location, size, and brightness of glare source; Exterior Luminance used for control; Not used for lighting control with specific luminance value and glare position identification
Mead and Mosalam (2017) System: Automated full luminance distribution measurement; Sensor: RPiCM ; Control: Not Addressed Luminance measurement with 20% error; RPi camera requires vignetting correction; Range of luminance variation is measured to identify the luminance distribution To improve the quality of HDR image, exposure sequence needs to be specified individually for each test case.
Caicedo and Pandharipande (2016) System: Daylight –Artificial Light scheme; Sensors: Conventional Photosensors and occupancy sensor; Control: Inner loop with PI controller for ceiling sensors and outer loop to recalibrate the controller setpoints. Multiple Ceiling sensors, work plane sensors at each zone; Calibration – the ratio of measured illuminance at ceiling and workspace sensor Provided net illuminance above desired level; Out of the 8 workspaces considered 4 could achieve above target illuminance
Liu et al. (2016) System: Artificial light control; Sensor: Light sensors and motion sensors; Control: Fuzzy logic control, integrated with PI control for lighting comfort and minimizing energy consumption. Light sensors located on the working table; Glare not addressed With 300 lx illuminance level; 3% difference between measured and reference illuminance; 57% energy saving is estimated
