Abstract

With the rapid advancements in mobile devices and wireless network technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT) has become more powerful and popular than ever. The aim of IoT is to efficiently control various types of objects through wireless communications. This paper aims to design an IoT-based smart lighting system that reduces development costs and saves power consumption. Unlike public open spaces, the focus of this paper is on ship cabin spaces. As ship cabins have unique properties, such as requiring gas-based power generation and preferring a wireless environment, designing a smart cabin lighting system is crucial and has significant commercial value. The smart cabin lighting system is designed with four features. Firstly, it can automatically control the lighting devices around people using position-sensitive devices. Secondly, it enables setting on/off and adjusting the luminance for lighting devices through Touch Keypads. Thirdly, the system can be controlled using an app to turn on/off and adjust the luminance of lighting devices. Lastly, the lighting devices equipped with sensors collect specific data on cloud servers for analysis. The underlying communication protocol used to interconnect the smart lighting devices, sensors, and Touch Keypads is Zigbee. The smart cabin lighting system can be applied to marine lighting, thus improving the commercial value of enterprises related to marine lighting.
