BlueHopper’s Astro Timer Schedules Outdoor Lighting with Astronomical Precision
Imagine outdoor lighting systems that can be scheduled to operate automatically based on the local astronomical cycle. For residential applications, lights can be programmed to turn on at dusk and off at dawn, regardless of the time of year. In commercial settings, such as restaurants, outdoor lighting can follow a fixed schedule to ensure the space is illuminated at optimal times for customer engagement. Similarly, municipal areas benefit from automated lighting for parks, walkways, and public buildings, improving engagement, safety, and energy efficiency without requiring manual adjustments.
