Abstract:
A light environment rendering system includes: one lighting apparatus disposed on a part of a structure to form an illumination space; another lighting apparatus disposed on the part of a structure, at a position different from a position at which the one lighting apparatus is located, to form the illumination space; and a system controller which controls an operation of each of the lighting apparatuses. The system controller determines an illumination mode based on sky information that indicates at least one of a brightness and a color tone of a sky which are determined at least based on an azimuth direction and a height of the sun, and causes each of the lighting apparatuses to perform lighting simulating a sky according to the illumination mode.
