What is sunrise/sunset simulation?
” A: We have developed electronic lighting-control circuitry that simulates gradually rising and falling light intensity, just as we see at dawn and dusk. Our extensive circuit testing shows that these changes in light intensity, as a function of time, follow a so-called sigmoidal or S-shaped curve, just as we see in nature. So, the effect is very real and true. Q: “Specifically, how does the technology work?” A: A common analog or digital timer (or computer, or PLC, or other timing device) which you provide controls when the circuitry is automatically activated or deactivated. When activated, the circuit begins a process of gradual increase of power (a period of time that you can select and change as you wish; see specifications below) to the lighting fixtures. Light levels slowly “ramp up” from dark to full bright. Similarly, when the circuit is deactivated, light levels “ramp down” from full bright to dark over the same period of time. Q: “What are the benefits of sunrise/sunset sim
