A method and apparatus for device finding after network configuration are disclosed. The method for device finding includes: sending a message to a smart device in an Access Point (AP) mode, the message comprising information for connecting to a first router or AP; changing connection from the smart device to a network; performing a local scanning when connecting to the first router or AP; and performing a cloud scanning when the local scanning fails.

Method and apparatus for device finding after network configuration

The present disclosure relates to a lighting apparatus, a driving circuit and driving method thereof. The lighting apparatus comprises a plurality groups of lighting elements and a driving circuit. Each group of lighting elements comprises at least one lighting element, each lighting element in a same group having a cathode connected to a common cathode node. The driving circuit comprises a plurality of voltage sources, each having a terminal connected to an anode of a respective lighting element in each group of lighting elements; and a plurality of current sources, each having a terminal connected to the common cathode node of a respective group of lighting elements.

Lighting apparatus, driving circuit and driving method thereof

A presence sensing method for a light comprises detecting a presence of a user by a sensing module having a first sensitivity while the light is off; turning on the light when identifying the presence of the user and keeping the light on for a delay time period which has a preset length; increasing a sensitivity of the sensing module to a second sensitivity after turning on the light; detecting actions of the user by the sensing module having the second sensitivity while the light is on; determining a length of a next delay time period based on the actions of the user during the previous delay time period immediately prior to the next delay time period; and keeping the light on for the next delay time period.
