The
TAP is a
wireless, self powered photo sensor
designed for indoor use, for light level sensing, for
daylight switching or dimming
, 0-512 and 0-1024 range detection.
The
TAP uses energy harvesting
solar cells
for power and uses a
very low power radio
allowing it to operate in low light conditions for extended periods of time.
The
TAP sensor transmits light levels to receivers or controllers which can then activate
lighting fixtures
based on need. Harvesting the ambient daylight in work and living areas is a well recognized method of
conserving energy
.
