5 ways that connected lighting uses data to deliver value beyond illumination

(Jonathan Weinert)

In the Internet of Things (IoT), it’s all about the data. Connected devices are

connected expressly for the purpose of gathering and sharing information about

themselves, about the environment in which they’re used, and about the people

who use them. In a connected lighting system, luminaires and other lighting

system devices merge with IT networks to allow for the collection, distribution,

and storage of large amounts of data.

Jonathan Weinert is strategic content developer for Philips Global Lighting Systems, helping to tell the story of intelligent, connected lighting systems and how Philips is leading the lighting industry toward the future of light.

Jonathan served as senior writer for Philips Color Kinetics, the global leader in professional LED lighting, from 2008 through 2013. He is the author of "LED Lighting Explained," an introduction to LED lighting technology and solutions published by Philips, which has sold over 30,000 copies worldwide and has been translated into eight languages. His marketing and educational publications have won several industry awards.

Jonathan is also a prize-winning poet and essayist. His debut collection, "In the Mode of Disappearance," published by Nightboat Books in 2008, won the Nightboat Poetry Prize. With Kevin Prufer, Jonathan is contributor to and co-editor of "Until Everything Is Continuous Again: American Poets on the Recent Work of W. S. Merwin" (WordFarm 2012). A chapbook, "Thirteen Small Apostrophes," was published by Back Pages Publishers in April 2013. Jonathan received a 2012 Artist's Fellowship in Poetry from the Massachusetts Cultural Council. His poems and essays are published widely.

1. Connected luminaires: data for operational insight

Connected luminaires are designed to make information about themselves available in standard or published data formats. Such information might include dimming level, energy consumption, time on and off, and internal temperature measurements, which can have an important effect on the performance and longevity of LED light sources.

With a database module, back-end lighting management software can store this information for historical analysis and reporting. Such information can serve as a critical part of enterprise-wide energy monitoring and management, especially as lighting often accounts for a significant percentage of an organization’s energy budget. When combined with other sets of data—for example, historical information on usage of and activities in an illuminated space—system managers can use this information to refine dimming schedules and light level targets, minimizing light levels when spaces are unoccupied. The more that managers know about how and when illuminated spaces are being used, the more energy efficient their lighting operations can become.

The ability to share operational data and connectivity with IT networks is built into a connected luminaire’s electronics, so it comes at little or no additional cost. Lighting manufacturers that design a common luminaire electronics platform with connected capabilities, and who use this platform across their entire portfolio of luminaires, achieve economies of scale that can actually drive the cost of connected luminaires down.

2. Connected spaces: data for optimizing environments

Sensor networks are getting a lot of play in the technosphere these days, and for good reason. Miniaturization, high throughput, and cheap data storage now make it both possible and cost-effective to install sensors throughout public and professional spaces.

Sensors can collect data about human activity—the flow of foot traffic, usage patterns, preferences; the environment—daylight levels, temperature, humidity, the presence of chemicals or other dangers; and things—the locations of items in a warehouse, traffic patterns.Connected lighting systems are uniquely positioned to serve as platforms for sensor networks. Lighting is already installed everywhere that people go, indoors and—at least in urban and residential environments—outdoors as well. Power is already available everywhere that lighting is installed. And connected luminaires already have the ability to send data “upstream” to IT networks. By integrating sensors into the lighting system, you have a readymade, distributed grid—no need for a separate physical infrastructure, separate power runs, or separate data cabling.

Important considerations for sensor networks include the density of the grid (number of sensor nodes per area), the type of sensors deployed, and the ability to extract meaningful data from the overall data stream. Sensors have become small and cheap enough to embed directly in the luminaire housing for very little incremental cost. The density of luminaires may exceed the required density of sensors, so flexibility in commissioning is also an important consideration.

Embedded light metering might be the key to solving the challenge of how to identify and respond to end-of-life events for LED lighting systems. Since LED light sources fade over time but rarely fail, it can be problematic to determine when a lighting system has dropped below the minimum threshold defined for an application.

For office lighting systems, end of life is often defined as the moment when the initial light output of the luminaires has depreciated by 30%. With LED-based lighting systems, this moment may not occur until after the system has been in operation for 50,000 hours or more (12 years or longer if the lights are on twelve hours a day, every day). If the system can automatically detect this event and send an alert, facility management can know when relamping is required.

3. Connected people: data for personalized experiences

Just as connected lighting systems can serve as a platform for distributed sensor networks, they can also serve as a platform for distributed communications networks, especially indoors.

By outfitting connected luminaires with wireless communications, organizations can deliver in-context information and services to people in illuminated spaces—wherever they are and whenever they need them.With a sufficiently dense network of communications nodes, organizations can create an indoor positioning network that works like an “indoor GPS,” offering wayfinding and other services that can have a considerable effect on visitor experience in professional, retail, and hospitality environments.

Imagine a large food store with indoor positioning. A shopper can use a specially designed mobile app to register with the system, whichprecisely locates him in the store. The app maps out his best route through the store based on his shopping list, makes suggestions for related products not on the list, and even offers special coupons on selected items. Personalized couponing can also have a profound impact in high-end retail stores. Shoppers regularly use smartphones to price-compare in store, sometimes purchasing an item on display for less money with a competitor. Retailers can combat this revenue drain by offering coupons at the point of sale—a proven in-store conversion method.

For security purposes, shoppers can register with the system anonymously. But shoppers may be able to receive special discounts and other incentives by agreeing to allow retailers to track their movements and shopping history in store. This would work exactly like creating a personal profile on a retailer’s website online, allowing the retailer to track visits, clickstream data, and purchasing history in exchange for special deals. Retailers can benefit enormously from this hitherto inaccessible customer data, using it to improve traffic flows, floor plans, displays, and other aspects of the store’s operations to enhance customer experience and loyalty.

One effective wireless technology for indoor positioning is visible light communications (VLC), where data is transmitted over the beam of LED light itself. This data stream can be received by the camera on a customer’s smartphone. VLC is especially valuable in retail settings because of its high accuracy (to less than half a meter).

On the down side, VLC is line-of-sight, so it’s susceptible to interference by walls and displays, and it doesn’t work well when lighting is dimmed to low levels. Zigbee, an open global wireless standard, uses a combination of VLC and Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE) to overcome some of these limitations. Savvy connected lighting suppliers will make their systems open to multiple communications methods, including VLC, Zigbee, Wi-Fi, RF, and others.

4. Connected software: data for real-time monitoring and historical reporting

Connected lighting is all about two-way data communications. One of the biggest advantages that this bidirectional data flow supports is the ability to monitor, manage, and maintain lighting systems in real time.

In standard lighting systems, little or no data is available on the current state of the luminaires and other devices. Often, a system administrator must take the lighting system offline to troubleshoot, to change luminaire configurations, or to display new light show content.

With lighting management software running in the IT network or the cloud, connected lighting systems offer a much richer environment for system administrators to oversee and optimize operations. Lighting management software systems that integrate tightly with connected luminaires—such as Philips CityTouch for street lighting or Philips ActiveSite for dynamic architectural lighting—give system managers the ability to see the current state of each lightpoint, and to act on lightpoints individually or in groups.

Map-based interfaces makes it easy to change configurations, update dimming schedules, and swap out light shows just by pointing and clicking. Systems can be set up to send alerts when operations are disrupted or unusual events occur. Because luminaires can share data about themselves, these alerts can include all relevant information about the luminaire’s location, type, settings, and so on—information that technicians can use to rapidly respond to and resolve any issues that might arise. This is especially powerful where luminaires are distributed over a wide area, such as street lighting in a city. Tickets and repair orders can be remotely managed and distributed, eliminating the need for work crews to drive around the streets at night to identify outages.

When combined with a database, lighting management software can let organizations store historical data on operations, along with any data streams aggregated from sensor networks and indoor positioning systems. It’s hard to underestimate the value of the data-driven insights that can result from analyzing and reporting on this data, especially when combined with valuable data from additional sources.

5. Connected landscape: data for the new digital ecology

Connected lighting systems can integrate with other systems in a building or city, creating new synergies and efficiencies, and making lighting an integral part of the new digital ecology. In the Internet of Things, this is called the system of systems.

Given that lighting accounts for a significant percentage of energy usage worldwide, the ability to manage lighting resources along with other critical resources promises to ensure the effectiveness of green initiatives and sustainability programs.

Data aggregation and data mining, of course, exist well beyond the capabilities and concerns of lighting systems. So long as the data gathered from system operations, sensor networks, and individuals is structured in a standard or known format, it should be fairly straightforward to merge this data with data from other systems and sources.

Published interfaces allow integration of lighting management software with other management software systems, such as energy management, building management, and traffic management.

Organizations that want to realize the true, game-changing value of the Internet of Things must partner with global technology experts, leaders in connected devices, and leasing software vendors and systems integrators. Read the 5 ways that connected lighting uses data to deliver value
