Smart Street Lighting Systems-We have a range of IoT (Cloud) based smart street lighting solutions

Smart Streetlights

Streetlights consume a significant amount of energy in cities; the operation of these lights can sometimes account for 60% of a city’s entire energy bill. In addition, current streetlight models are not optimized to be as energy efficient as possible. For example, most streetlights can only operate on a fixed schedule with a binary “on, off” setting. Now there are ways to dim the lights at dusk to save energy.

Using HIIOT's "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC" devices and wireless RF technology in smart lighting applications can enable remote lighting control, automatically adjusting the time that lights are on, and minimizing energy costs without sacrificing public safety. Smart lighting solutions can also reduce maintenance costs, and connecting to the Internet of Things (IoT) means these utilities can connect with other applications to improve efficiency. The interoperability of the "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC "protocol makes it easy to integrate into a larger network of smart city applications that can monitor everything from traffic, air quality and parking to weather emergencies and even gunshot detection

Connecting Street Lights to the Internet of Things

How it works?

Street lighting with HIIOT's " LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC" technology enables real-time analytics, sensing, reduced energy costs, and cloud connectivity while continuing to keep citizens safe.

First, "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC"-enabled sensors are embedded in street lights. These sensors are able to control the functions of the lights. Each sensor connects the light to a "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC"-based gateway. Each gateway processes messages and data from all nearby lights. Other smart city solutions, such as "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC"-enabled parking sensors, can be connected to the same gateway. Once a message is sent to the gateway, it is forwarded to a network server where the data can be analyzed. The server remotely controls lighting functions and sends maintenance alerts when a bulb burns out or other issues are detected.

Benefits of "LoRaWAN/2.4GMESH/4G/PLC" technology for smart lighting

Better control over light usage: means lights are only turned on when needed. This reduces energy costs. Lights can be programmed to be “context aware.” This means lights can stay on longer or brighter, or during large events or in busy neighborhoods, or as needed. Data from sensors can provide insights to improve maintenance efficiency and effectiveness. Interoperability with other smart city solutions means data can be analyzed to further improve city safety. For example, data from traffic sensors can show which streets are more prone to accidents. Lighting hours and/or brightness on those streets can be increased.
