According to the demand of future smart home for lighting experience, an embedded intelligent LED dimming system based on the Raspberry Pi 4B is proposed. The system detects the human proximity distance and captures the gesture movements and other parameters through one ADPS-9960 sensor. An embedded miniature CSI camera OV5647 is used to collect the user's facial expression image data. PWM signal is generated from Raspberry Pi GPIO pin to control the LED illumination. PWM duty cycle range is determined by the fusion results of normalized weighted modulation from the expression type recognized from the facial images and the gesture detected byADPS-9960. Under the basic 3-tier CNN recognition model framework, the expression recognition is further enhanced by introducing the fusion with Face landmarks and HOG features. The experimental results show that the proposed dimming system can adaptively control the luminaire brightness according to the user's psychological state and behavior, and can light off when the person leaves the light, which meets the requirements of modern smart home for user light experience and energy saving.
