System and method for light socket adaptation

1. A lighting adapter module, comprising:

a first connection to a source of power;

a second connection to provide power to a lighting source;

Wi-Fi transmit/receive circuitry;

Bluetooth LE transmit/receive circuitry;

a processor that processes instructions received via one or more of the Wi-Fi transmit/receive circuitry and the Bluetooth LE transmit/receive circuitry, wherein the instructions are received from one or more of a remote server system and a mobile computing device;

wherein the processor executes first instructions to cause the lighting adapter module to detect devices within a detection proximity of the lighting adapter module, wherein the devices are enabled with one or more of Bluetooth LE and Wi-Fi;

wherein a detected device is associated with a particular user identity, the particular user identity associated with a set of user preferences; and

power supply control circuitry controllable by the processor, wherein the power supply control circuitry controls power supplied to the lighting source;

wherein the processor, in response to detection of the device and determination of the particular user identity, automatically processes second instructions to modify the power supplied to the lighting source based at least on the set of user preferences;

wherein communicating with the enabled device occurs initially over one of Bluetooth LE or Wi-Fi.

2. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the lighting adapter module receives a connection request from the enabled device via Bluetooth LE.

3. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the lighting adapter module receives a connection request from the enabled device via Wi-Fi.

4. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the second instructions include one or more of disable power to the lighting source, enable power to the lighting source, reduce power to the lighting source to produce a dimming effect, and increase power to the lighting source to increase brightness.

5. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the Wi-Fi transmit/receive circuitry is periodically disabled to save power.

6. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the lighting source is one of CFL, LED, Halogen, or Incandescent.

7. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the second instructions are further based on one or more of motion sensor data and light sensor data.

8. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein authentication of a device comprises:

transmitting, by the lighting adapter module, a request for an access token to a remote server system;

receiving, by the lighting adapter module, the access token from the remote server system, wherein the remote server system authenticates the device prior to providing the access token, and wherein the access token comprises a nonce and a signature;

writing, by the lighting adapter module, the nonce and signature into an authentication characteristic;

signing, by the lighting adapter module, the nonce using an API token received from the remote server system to produce a signed nonce;

comparing, by the lighting adapter module, the signed nonce to the signature; and

accessing, by the lighting adapter module, secured characteristics upon determining that the signed nonce and signature match.

9. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , further comprising power consumption monitoring circuitry.

10. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the lighting adapter module automatically detects the type of the lighting source.

11. The lighting adapter module according to claim 1 , wherein the lighting adapter module calibrates the lighting source to determine an optimal dimming profile for the lighting source.
