Abstract
An automated range hood includes a controller that selects a fan speed for one or more ventilation assemblies by identifying a minimum number of pixels that satisfy a threshold. The controller automatically turns on one or more light sources to illuminate a surface under the range hood when motion is detected or when the one or more ventilation assemblies are in use.
