Smart
Lighting:
The
new weight room south utilizes "smart lighting," which
means that the amount of lighting used in the room is determined
by the level of natural light from windows. The picture to the right
depicts two sensors that measure light levels (located near the
middle of the image to the left of the four pot-lights). When the
level of natural light is high, as in the image, little artificial
light is needed. On the other hand, when it is dark out, different
levels of lighting turn on, each level allowing for increased brightness.
The highest level utilizes the lights seen below, which are unofficially
known as "he-men."
