Abstract
Finally, this thesis presents a framework for using graphical rendering tools along with point sensor measurements for estimating the light field and using this estimate for feedback control. Computer graphics software is used to efficiently and accurately model building spaces, while a game engine is used to render different lighting conditions for the space on the fly. For each of the mentioned methodologies, experimental and/or simulation results are used to demonstrate the performance of the proposed controllers in lighting testbeds. Two room-sized testbeds, equipped with color-tunable lights and color sensors, realized in the Smart Lighting Engineering Research Center located at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, are used for this purpose.
