In addition, the platform enables reduced energy use, improved space utilisation, better environmental management and greater asset utilisation.

Enlighted analyses and visualises the collected sensor data to drive down operating costs and improve the inner life of a building. These sensors can be installed in every light fixture with the ability to collect data 65 times per second to detect environmental and occupancy changes and react to lighting and HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) needs in real-time. Based on an advanced smart lighting control applications, today, the Enlighted platform can lower lighting costs of a building up to 85 percent when combined with advanced LED fixtures. In addition, the platform is able to locate people and assets within a building and analyse the occupancy of floors and rooms. Finally, in combination with Siemens solutions, the Enlighted platform can optimise the energy efficiency of HVAC systems.

The interaction between buildings and humans is crucial to increase productivity, energy efficiency and comfort in a building. From its inception, Enlighted has been focused on understanding how buildings can be made more efficient and the people who work in them more productive.
