About the workshop
Lin is an interactive system to control the brightness of light and blinds in the building. The control element can be installed as a replacement of the light switch anywhere in your home. In addition, the user has the option to use the system on mobile devices.
The control on the screen is intuitive because it´s based on certain gestures. The user is able to change the light brightness, light color and light saturation in every room individually and at any time. Also the height of the blinds and the angulation of the slats can be determined. The system is equipped with sensors, because of that the lighting situation can be automatically detected and adjusted. Lin also remembers the most frequently used light settings for each room, thereby it can be adjusted in seconds. If the user wishes to save his favourite light setting, you can create a new scene. For an automatic interaction thy system can be linked with a device in the scene settings.
