Abstract:
The invention relates to a touch panel device for a dimmer lighting control system, the device comprising a touch sensitive surface capable of detecting a touch input; a light sensor that detects ambient light levels within a sensing area adjacent to the device; a processing means operatively connected to the touch sensitive surface and the light sensor for generating control signals based on detection of the touch input on the touch sensitive surface and/or ambient light levels wherein, in use, the total light output of a light circuit can be controlled manually with the touch panel device and/or controlled autonomously by the level of ambient light in the sensing area.

Claim (Index 3):
A touch panel device as defined in  claim 2 , wherein the movement sensor also detects when a moving object is proximate to the touch panel device and if the object is within close proximity to the device then, for example, the touch sensitive surface is illuminated so as to be easier to locate and operate in the dark.
