"Enlighted has a strong footprint in revolutionizing building intelligence by developing an IoT platform based on multiple sensors, using the power of data," said Matthias Rebellius, CEO of Siemens Building Technologies.

"With this move, we demonstrate our commitment to driving digitalization in the smart building industry." Enlighted has achieved its technological leadership with a world-class IoT platform for commercial real estate. The platform comprises multi-function sensors, distributed computing, its own network, and software applications. At the heart of Enlighted's platform are smart sensors that securely transmit data to the cloud.

The platform performs lighting analysis and visualizes collected sensor data to reduce operating costs and improve the indoor environment of a building. These sensors can be installed on all light fixtures, collecting data 65 times per second to detect environmental and occupancy changes and react to lighting and HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) needs in real time. Based on an advanced smart lighting control application, the Enlighted platform can reduce a building's lighting costs by up to 85 percent when combined with advanced LED fixtures. Furthermore, the platform can locate people and assets within a building and analyze floor and room occupancy.
