John Fox, Managing Director of Lucy Zodion, comments:

Being shortlisted for this award highlights just how innovative the Precizion^HALO and the Zhaga Book 18 interface is. Developing a photocell that is universally compatible with LED street lighting infrastructure and IoT technology means that all our customers can benefit from sleeker, more intelligent and cost-effective lighting control that is easy to upgrade and manage: a truly future-proof approach.

The Precizion^HALO works within an Eco-system of components to deliver harmonious functionality, installation and upgrade solutions. Connecting with Zhaga Book 18 approved components, Precizion^HALOworks to a universal standard specification to enable the integration of IoT technology within outdoor LED street lighting furniture.

The photocell works together with a socket and driver to form an interface that communicates, enhancing lighting control and data collection. The Precizion^HALO offers sensory inputs while also communicating with other luminaires in a network – only made possible through the SR driver, which provides power directly.  By incorporating all components within this independent eco-system, the Precizion^HALO has been developed with a smaller footprint than traditional modules, which greatly increases luminaire design flexibility.

Smart LED lighting fixtures with sensing and communication capabilities, such as the Precizion^HALO, can significantly improve the efficiency, maintenance and running costs of outdoor lighting networks, giving municipal leaders great benefits, both now and in the future.
