Abstract
A lighting device () arranged for rendering a light output is disclosed. The lighting device () comprises at least one light source () arranged for emitting light. The lighting device () further comprises a receiver () arranged for receiving at least one signal from at least one further device (), which at least one signal is representative of a current location of the lighting device (). The lighting device () further comprises a processorarranged for controlling the light output of the at least one light source (). The processor () is further arranged for determining the current location of the lighting device () based on the received at least one signal and for accessing a memory () storing associations between locations and light settings. The processor () is further arranged for comparing the current location to at least one stored location so as to determine whether a first similarity criterion is met, and for controlling, if the first similarity criterion is met, the light output of the lighting device () according to a light setting associated with the stored location. This allows a user to move the lighting device () between locations, and for each location the previously set light setting associated with that location may be applied to the lighting device (). The processor () is further arranged for associating the current location with a current light setting if the first similarity criterion is not met, and the processor () is further arranged for storing the association in the memory ().
