On each side of campus
Don't have to get up to turn on the light
No need to turn off lights - because they turn off for you
Measure illuminance to gauge brightness of light
Depending on type, can be triggered from a far distance
Can be used indoors and outdoors
No need for a special lightbulb - uses same lightbulbs as other lights
Relatively easy set up - no wiring
Multi-purpose
Inconveniences
may be distracting
Annoying if lights shut off while you're in the room
