LEDs are Good. Smart Lights are Better

The obvious benefit of smart lighting is that they optimize energy efficiency compared to isolated LEDs by remotely and automatically providing on/off, brightness and other basic functions. The second level of benefit is a bit more subtle. Lighting is ubiquitous and offers the best bird’s eye view of what is happening in a facility. For instance, data gathered from a smart lighting system outfitted with the proper software can determine that a conference room is underutilized and that space  can be put to better use. An IoT sensor can track the flow of people through a building to work out more efficient layouts.
