FRANKFURT,
Germany -- At Light+Building 2018, Fulham Co., Inc., a leading
supplier of lighting components and electronics for commercial and
specialty applications, will demonstrate new lighting control
technology using the Lighting Firmware based on the core Bluetooth
mesh stack provided by Silvair, a pioneer in lighting control
technology. Fulham will be showing its Bluetooth mesh lighting
controllers as well as software for smart luminaires in Hall 4.0,
Stand A12.
Fulham's
Light+Building 2018 technology demonstration will display products
including a Bluetooth to 0-10V LED controller and a 40W LED driver
with Bluetooth connectivity via a Fulham Intelligent Wireless Module.
The display will include a presentation of control using third-party
sensors and wall switches in a Bluetooth mesh environment.
Fulham's
demonstration incorporates Silvair's wireless lighting control
technology based on Bluetooth mesh which gives users control and data
gathering capabilities. Adopting Bluetooth mesh networking technology
and Silvair's wireless lighting control solution offers numerous
advantages since Bluetooth is a well-defined, open standard that
provides a fast, reliable performance, unmatched scalability,
high-level security and out-of-the-box interoperability. Mesh
networking was designed for building automation applications since it
enables many-to-many communications. It is ideally suited for
connected lighting as it can simultaneously connect sensors in
hundreds or thousands of luminaires. Silvair's Lighting Firmware
based on Bluetooth mesh promises to offer a wireless lighting
management ecosystem that can quickly pay for itself, as well as
laying the foundation for centralized lighting controls using IoT
(the Internet of Things).
"OEMs
have been weighing the best approach to smart lighting controls and
our partnership with Silvair marks a key step in Fulham's
demonstration of a new wireless lighting control," says Russ
Sharer, Vice President of Business Development for Fulham. "Our
goal is to work with OEMs to give them a choice when it comes to
lighting control. With our clever lighting products, we have already
added programmability to solid-state luminaires. Support for
Bluetooth mesh marks the next logical step in lighting communications
as the industry moves toward truly intelligent lighting."
"It
is truly wonderful that Fulham joins us as one of our partners
showing Silvair's wireless lighting control solution based on the
Bluetooth mesh technology. I am excited to see the upcoming changes
in the lighting industry caused by our collaboration to bring a new
generation of Bluetooth mesh enabled smart lighting components to the
market." says Rafal Han, CEO and co-founder at Silvair. "We
cannot wait to demonstrate these products for the first time at Light
+ Building 2018. Silvair's relationship with Fulham is an important
step for making an interoperable smart lighting ecosystem a reality."
In
addition to lighting controls, Bluetooth mesh networking can be used
for other IoT applications, working with sensors already located in
luminaires to control HVAC systems, alarm systems, fire controls, and
other building controls. ABI Research predicts there will be 48
billion Internet-enabled devices installed by 2021, including smart
luminaires, and open standards such as Bluetooth mesh will make it
possible to consolidate these devices into a central IoT
infrastructure.
