luminaire 100 comprises lighting means 102, acontrol circuitry 104 and an integratedtemperature sensor 106 functionally connected to thecontrol circuitry 104, wherein thecontrol circuitry 104 is configured to compensate a temperature signal from thetemperature sensor 106 by a compensation value ΔT in order to obtain an estimate for an ambient temperature of theluminaire 100, wherein thecontrol circuitry 104 is configured to use at least one operating parameter of the lighting means 102 of theluminaire 100 to obtain the compensation value ΔT. - The
temperature sensor 106 can be configured to generate a voltage which varies linearly with temperature. Thetemperature sensor 106 can internally be connected to an input channel which is configured to convert the output sensor voltage into a digital value. - The

As the offset of thetemperature sensor 106 varies from chip to chip due to process variation, the uncalibratedinternal temperature sensor 106 can be suitable for applications that detect temperature changes only. - In order to be able to provide measurements with the necessary level of accuracy for the respective application, measurement distortions should be compensated for. Machine learning (ML) models, such as a 'random forest', can solve this compensation task, but require appropriate training data input. One way to generate this input can be to expose one instance of the
luminaire 100 under consideration to varying environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, volatile organic compounds, CO2, etc.), and measure the system response, while also collecting ground truth information within the lab, but outside theluminaire 100. Based on the data collected, and taking luminaire 100 state history into account, powerful, highly accurate models (+- 0,5 degrees C in >90% of cases) can be trained and later applied. Both current temperature as observed within theluminaire 100 by thetemperature sensor 106, and luminaire state (dim level) as observed in the past few hours, can be processed by ML model, e.g., a 'random forest', that has been trained on said two variables and actual temperature outside the luminaire 100 (ground truth). - This model can be implemented to run on a light-management system, on the
temperature sensor 106, if computing capability is sufficient, or in the cloud, if that is more appropriate. - Embodiments of the invention provide the advantage that use is made of machine learning models to accurately approximate the physical characteristics of the
luminaire 100, i.e., approximate the difference in temperature between inside and outside theluminaire 100. - Moreover, embodiments of the invention provide the advantage that, there is provision of accurate temperature, regardless of the fact that the
temperature sensor 106 measurements can heavily be distorted by waste heat from theluminaire 100. - Moreover, the invention renders the installation of stand-
alone temperature sensors 106, along with all the required wiring setup, redundant. It can also allow to integrate atemperature sensor 106 within any device that emits heat, while providing accurate temperature measurements. -
