  • Possibility to integrate new devices in the future

The benefits

Security

Automatic alerts in the event of lighting issues

Comfort

Automated and smart control of lighting for all installations

Energy savings

The lighting of the several sports facilities is only used when necessary, which helps reduce electricity consumption

We chose NodOn Zigbee micromodules for their radio range, because they allow you to create an excellent Zigbee mesh network and because they are simple and quick to install. In addition, interoperability and modularity were imperatives in this project, which we were able to guarantee thanks to NodOn products.
