Lighting Control systems deliver the right amount of light, wherever and whenever one wants. Lights can automatically turn on, off or dim at set times or under set conditions, and users can have control over their own lighting levels to provide optimal working conditions. Such Lighting control helps to reduce costs and conserve energy by turning off, or dimming lights when they are not required.

It is too expensive to retrofit existing buildings with energy-saving lighting controls because of the cost of adding wires. Wireless Light Control is an excellent solution, and involves replacing physical wiring with radio waves. Using wireless switches and dimmers, it becomes affordable for the occupants to control building lighting. The benefits include and not limited to:

• Reduced first cost: Because controllers and control devices communicate with each other without dedicated wiring, installing a wireless control system instead of a conventional, wired system saves costs in both new construction and existing facilities.

• Flexibility: Buildings today are in a constant state of flux. As the needs of a space change, wireless controls can be reconfigured or expanded to accommodate alterations without the cost- and time-intensive process of tearing apart walls and ceilings for rewiring.
• Scalability: Once a wireless network is established, additional sensors and controllers can be easily added at the cost of an additional wireless device, with minimal labor and disruption.  
• Ease of use: Some lighting systems support remote (hand-held) lighting controls, called Wireless Remote Controls to provide even greater flexibility. Different lighting scenes can be created with the touch of a button, based on the tasks being performed at that moment.
• Fitting and refitting: Wiring and installation costs are often cited as major barriers to deploying advanced controls in existing buildings. Wireless controls help to overcome this by enabling lights to be connected with robust, secure controls that lower electricity costs, while enhancing the long-term value and viability of buildings.

Bright Image Corporation offers Touch & Glow brand of Wireless Remote Controls that can control any device up to 50 ft away. Remote controlled lighting allows turning lights on and off from anywhere in the house, or select preset lighting scenes right from the remote.

Such wireless lighting control solutions provide both significant cost savings and a great level of flexibility & control for the building administrators and great comfort for the occupants!
