Abstract
Illumination control systems and methods, including those for influencing circadian rhythm, are disclosed. Embodiments include a control device capable of obtaining desired color temperature (e.g., local daylight) information, generating a color temperature value, and outputting a signal including the color temperature value. Embodiments further include a server having means for obtaining at least one of geographical location information and time of day information relative to the server, a processor to determine local daylight information, and a wireless transmitter to broadcast the signal within a site system. Embodiments further include one or more lighting control devices to control lighting devices, each lighting control having a wireless receiver to continuously listen for and receive the signal broadcasted by the server, and a lighting driver to change the lighting output of the coupled lighting device according to the detected signal.
