Abstract
A method includes identifying a plurality of images corresponding to sky conditions and isolating cloud pixels from sky pixels in each of the plurality of images. Responsive to determining percentage of cloud pixels in one or more of the plurality of images meets a threshold value, the method further includes determining predicted cloud movement relative to sun position. The method further includes causing a tint level of an electrochromic device to be controlled based on the predicted cloud movement relative to the sun position.
