LightFARM: Model Predictive Lighting Control with Battery-Free IoT for Energy-Efficient Indoor Farming

Hao Yu, Yanxiang Wang, Mark Cardamis, Tianlang Zhang, Yihe Yan, Hari Ganesan, et al.

Lighting is the dominant energy load in indoor farming, yet most deployed systems still rely on fixed rule-based or schedule-based control. We present LightFARM, a predictive lighting control framework that couples crop illumination with battery-free sensing for more energy-effic…
