Some people who live near Tesla’s Gigafactory near Austin , Texas , complain about the lights at night .
The problem is so sneaky, in fact, that even Tesla probably doesn’t notice it.
The parking lot around the gigafactory has large, stadium-style lights that keep it well lit at night , but for them, it's not helpful at all.
Many companies of all sizes and many, many more homes have bright lights outside, many of which let at least some of the light point upward.
To get this right, it’s all about controlling light in space, time, and intensity.
For space, the trick is to use properly-designed lights that cast the light only where it's needed.
This can be done with timers, motion sensors, and other basic technologies.
It's also important to only have lights on when they’re needed.
