Bright out significantly reduces energy consumption in areas with natural light by switching artificial lights off when there is adequate natural light. Similar to daylight harvesting it renders best results when combined with presence detection. Bright out can be used with lux sensors in the controlled areas (if available as required for presence detection) or with a single central lux sensor measuring outside lux level. Other than daylight harvesting it does not require dimmable lights and therefore can be used when lights can only be switched on and off.
