DURHAM, N.C., April 13, 2017 — Cree,
Inc. (Nasdaq: CREE) introduces the SmartCast Intelligence Platform™,
the first intuitive lighting system to leverage the Internet of Things
(IoT) to deliver smart building solutions through a combination of
hardware, software and services. The breakthrough platform combines
Cree's industry leading SmartCast® Power over Ethernet (PoE) LED
lighting network with the company’s innovative analytics software to
transform lighting and sensor data into actionable insights. The
integrated solution provides immediate energy and space utilization
recommendations that lower maintenance costs to improve productivity.
“LED technology is the standard for lighting installations and the Cree
SmartCast Intelligence Platform™ solution demonstrates our ability to
harness the power of this technology to go beyond illumination and
energy savings to make buildings and the people in them more efficient
and productive,” said Daniel Castillo, Cree president, lighting. “The
platform combines intelligent LED lighting fixtures, integrated
sensors, and our new software analytics tool, SmartCast Advisor™, to
deliver on the promise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and improve the
spaces in which we work and live.”
SmartCast Advisor™, the first analytics application available on the
SmartCast Intelligence Platform, monitors buildings via the SmartCast
PoE lighting network, which is currently installed in a number of large
customer sites. The application collects data and drives insights
immediately upon installation. With the SmartCast Advisor application,
building operators can repurpose underutilized space to optimize the
productivity within their buildings.
“The SmartCast Advisor™ application is the next step in Cree’s
commitment to accelerating the adoption of advanced lighting controls
and creating an open building intelligence platform that’s future-ready
and easy to use,” continued Castillo. “The application is the first of
its kind to extract the value of big data from a lighting network, and
is in keeping with Cree’s commitment to a better light experience.”
