What are the opportunities?
Lighting is everywhere

Connected lighting introduces new opportunities in diverse lighting areas
Light is needed wherever people come together, from home and work to public places. Fulfilling a huge number of different tasks, light is therefore of central importance for human beings.

Smart building
Integrated systems consisting of hardware and software applications automatically control operations like heating, air conditioning or lighting. Connecting the different areas of a building they provide a comfortable way of data collection. Besides significant operational savings, low maintenance costs and safety benefits, smart connected lighting creates high levels of operational and facility efficiencies.

Smart city
The concept combines multiple information and communication technology and Internet of things solutions to increase the efficiency and quality of life in urban environments. By the use of sensors an all accessible cloud is permanently supplied with variable data. The analysis of the gathered knowledge delivers a detailled overview of current processes and need for improvement especially regarding maintenance control.

Smart industry
Smart connected lighting systems turn factories into smart factories. By offering valuable new insights on how industrial facilities are used and how they gain in productivity and efficiency, connected lighting helps to improve the overall plant intelligence. In addition to significant energy savings and low maintenance costs, industrial settings benefit from improved operational efficiency.

Smart commerce
Smart connected lighting improves overall retail intelligence. It enhances the customer buying experience whilst providing retailers with invaluable data on customer behaviour and preferences. Ultimately, it enables them to redefine customer service and distinguish themselves from competitors.
Space management
Track building user behaviour and presence in buildings
Remote monitoring
Monitor the performance of the lighting infrastructure
Predictive maintenance
With the aid of remote monitoring via a lighting-based infrastructure it is possible to adopt a system of predictive maintenance.
People tracking
Track costumer's shopping behaviour and presence in stores.
Asset tracking
Lighting can help locate equipment and raw materials, key personnel such as the head of production quickly and easily in a large factory complex. Transport routes can also be automated this way.
Indoor navigation
Easily guide user to selected area via the user’s mobile device.
Dynamic lighting
Optimised street lighting in line with traffic and weather conditions.
Advanced parking
Lighting infrastructure used to guide drivers to free parking spaces.
Energy monitoring
Allows detailed data management and analysis regarding light consumption in different areas.
Property developers
Smart connected lighting allows management of more than just one building, providing accessibility to different locations wherever you are, all over the world.
M+E consultants
Imagine if all trades such as heating, ventilation and air quality could share the same network. Imagine if all devices could talk to each other via the IP. This data can be directly accessed for building automation and services beyond lighting.
Luminaire manufacturers
If you integrate Tridonic’s smart connected lighting solution into your luminaire you create the opportunity to also have other IoT devices within your new smart luminaire.
System integrators
Creating a digital connected ceiling creates interoperability between systems and devices that goes beyond lighting and provides easy integration to Building Management Systems.
End users
And finally the end user who gains the most benefit from the added services and that his system is IoT ready for the future.
