Does the institution use motion, infrared, and/or light sensors to reduce energy use for lighting in at least one building?:
A brief description of the technology used:
Occupancy Sensors are installed in hundreds of conference rooms, classrooms, offices and other spaces. The University uses the DT-200 Series Dual Technology Ceiling/Wall Sensors from Watt Stopper controls. This technology senses infrared energy and can cover 2000 square feet of walking motion and 1000 square feet of desktop motion. The delay is adjustable and is determined by the specific type of room.
