Abstract
Smart home systems have achieved great popularity in recent years as they increase the comfort and quality of life. Significant developments on Internet of Things have captured the electronic industry and has become one the most important applications of smart home systems. One of the IoT-based systems used in smart homes is smart lighting. Smart lighting is widely used and refers to lighting technology with increased level of functionality such as dimming or on/off control remotely to enhance user comfort and save energy. In this study, the effects of smart LED bulbs used in smart lighting systems on energy efficiency are investigated. Then, power consumption on different colors produced by smart LED bulb is investigated. It is seen that different colors produced by the smart LED bulb have different power consumption. Also, three case studies are considered with a comprehensive comparison between halogen, CFL, LED and smart LED in terms of energy saving. It is seen that smart LED bulb has the lowest energy consumption only when it is dimmed and is remotely controlled.
