The aim of this paper is to present an advanced controller for artificial lights developed and tested usingvalidated light models for several rooms in two European Hospitals located in Chania, Greece and Ancona, Italyrespectively. Fuzzy techniques have been used for the architecture of the controller. The efficiency of thecontrollers has been tested using validated models of the RADIANCE back-wards ray tracing model. The inputof the controller is the error between the current value of the photo sensor and the desired one, and the output isthe change of the light level that should be applied (S.I.S.O). The controller has been tested on 2 differentartificial light systems (On/ off switching, Dimming). Measurements and simulation indicate significant energysaving in both systems. Results are compared to the current use of the artificial lights by the users. All work hasbeen contacted using Matlab’s and RADIANCE’s environment.
