Signify (Philips Lighting Rebrand)

Current is partnering with city and utility leaders to repurpose existing streetlighting into an all-knowing digital infrastructure to extract data and deliver outcomes with limitless apps. Like a smartphone on a streetlight pole, our CityIQ® intelligent node houses sensors capable of edge analytics—a key component of any smart city IoT plan.

Ubicquia offers municipalities, utilities and mobile operators a cost-effective and expandable platform for deploying smart city, small cell and smart grid services. The Ubi suite of product lines include UbiCell, UbiHub and UbiMetro which are NEMA socket-compliant and compatible with more than 360 million streetlights globally, as well as UbiGrid, which provides advanced utility monitoring and grid stability for a large class of utility devices from the substation to the meter.

Energy consumption in major cities of the word is increasing day by day. In every city, considerable amount of electricity is being used for the purpose of street lighting system. Some areas of the city may have low frequency of people and vehicle movement, but it's observed that the amount of energy the streetlights consume in these areas is same as that of areas with high frequency people and vehicle movement. As a result, enormous amount of energy is wasted without being used. Usage of LED based lamps allows Internet of Technology (IoT) based systems to automate the streetlights switching on and switching off processes. Additionally, the intensity can be altered based on the need such as people and vehicle movement
