Cree Expands SmartCast Intelligence Platform

Cree

May 22, 2018

As buildings become increasingly more connected through the Internet of Things (IoT), owners and operators require an intuitive platform for their building intelligence solutions. To meet this need, Cree is expanding its SmartCast Intelligence Platform to include connected wireless capabilities that enable smart building solutions, such as building automation and control network (BACnet) connectivity, advanced lighting control, and building analytics.

In addition, Cree is announcing a new collaboration with Synapse Wireless, Inc. (“Synapse”) to deliver intuitive, intelligent lighting control designed specifically for outdoor area and high-bay applications. Together, these platform enhancements deliver connected solutions to more customers and applications, such as complete campus and industrial settings, while making it easier than ever to upgrade existing buildings to intelligent lighting systems.

SmartCast Wireless Connected Platform™

The powerful data analytics and third-party integration capabilities of Cree’s SmartCast® PoE system are now available for new or upgraded SmartCast® Wireless luminaires with SmartCast® Wireless Gateway and SmartCast Link™ devices. These capabilities enable lighting networks to benefit from the full extent of IoT building solutions. These solutions include data analytics and actionable insights on energy utilization, space optimization and employee productivity for building owners and operators. Additionally, the network can connect directly with other systems throughout the building via SmartCast® BACnet connectivity or API and with third-party applications within Cree’s development partner ecosystem.
