Disclosed embodiments provide a lighting apparatus with microwave induction. The microwave induction lamp emits electromagnetic waves through an antenna, such as a planar antenna. When a moving object enters the electromagnetic wave environment, the waveform is reflected and folded back and received by a microwave transceiver via the antenna and serves as a trigger signal. When the antenna receives the feedback waveform, a microcontroller-operated circuit activates a lighting device (e.g., a bank of light emitting diodes (LEDs)) in response to detecting the trigger signal. Disclosed embodiments use the trigger signal to turn the lighting device (lamps) on and off and further include a delay function, via a timer, to keep the lighting device activated for a predetermined period after detecting the trigger signal. In this way, a safe and efficient automatically activated lighting apparatus is provided.

A network bridge for a lighting system is disclosed. For one example, a lighting system includes an inter-integrated circuit (I.sup.2C) cable, a light emitting diode (LED) driver, and wireless module coupled to the LED driver by way of the I.sup.2C cable. The LED driver is configured to control one or more LED light sources. The wireless module includes an antenna configured to receive a message according to any number of a plurality of wireless communication protocols. The wireless module is configured to process the message into an I.sup.2C data frame and to deliver the I.sup.2C data frame to the LED driver via the I.sup.2C cable, and the LED driver is configured to control a lighting application or one or more LED light sources based on an I.sup.2C data frame. The message can be a wireless communication protocol message such as a ZigBee message, Bluetooth message or WiFi message. The wireless module includes bridge circuitry configured to process the Zigbee message, Bluetooth message or WiFi message into an I.sup.2C data frame and to deliver the I.sup.2C data frame to the LED driver via the I.sup.2C cable using a serial data communication protocol.

A gardening apparatus includes one or more of a base, a fluid reservoir, and a plant tray or support disposed on the reservoir. The support is adapted for receiving one or more modular plant inserts, and can define a flow structure for channeling fluid to each insert. A pump supplies fluid from the reservoir to the plant tray or support, with a light assembly adapted to generate a spectrum of light for growth of plants from the inserts. A processor is configured for controlling fluid flow from the pump, the light spectrum generated by the lighting elements, or both. For example, the processor can use a dynamic recipe, algorithm or control schedule to modulate the fluid flow or spectrum based the plant type, growth stage, height, plant health data, digital phenotyping data, or ambient conditions, or a combination thereof.

Methods, systems, and devices that support techniques for a smart monitoring system are described. A system may monitor a physical environment using a camera-enabled device operating in a first mode of a set of modes. The system may determine one or more parameters based on the monitoring. The parameters may include an identity of an entity, a behavior of the entity, or a setting of the security and automation system, or any combination thereof. The system may perform an operation based on the one or more parameters. The techniques described herein may deter an intruder from an intended action (e.g., theft, property damage, etc.) and/or provide lighting to a user of the security and automation system, among other benefits.
