The light balancing: a compelling solution for the future

The light balancing optimizes solar energy to adjust and save the artificial lighting level. When a room is occupied, the system maximizes solar gains, avoid glare and adjust the artificial lighting level thus ensuring optimum visual and thermal comfort while minimizing energy consumption.

When a room is unoccupied, the blinds are adjusted by the thermal requirements of the building and the light goes off giving priority to minimum energy consumption.
