Abstract
A lighting control system and method for controlling a plurality of lighting units wherein an image of a space including the lighting units is obtained, and certain non-lighting objects in the space are identified. The objects can be associated with light settings, and the relative position of lighting units to the objects allows the lighting units to be selectively associated with those light settings also. Linking of lighting units, non-lighting objects, and control settings in this way arranged can be achieved with minimal user input, and provides improved control of lighting in an environment.
