June 28 2017 - 4:21PM
ATLANTA - June
28, 2017 - Acuity Brands, Inc. (NYSE: AYI) announced
today that leading enterprise technology providers are leveraging
capabilities within the Company's newly branded Atrius(TM) Internet
of Things (IoT) platform to deliver software solutions to their
customers. These technology providers include, among others,
Dimension Data, Phunware, Inc., Verve, LocusLabs, Aisle411, Point
Inside, GISinc, Gozia Health, Xenia Retail and Arora Engineers,
Inc.
The full suite of Atrius IoT
platform and software solutions is designed to offer technology
providers a comprehensive framework and development environment to
build integrated IoT business applications. Technology providers
can create custom, real-time business applications and mobile
experiences for their customers using Atrius Solution Builder -- a
"drag and drop," development and visualization tool -- which
can unlock data from a variety of sources, including smart lighting
networks and other building systems within the Atrius Sensory
Network (luminaires and edge devices already enabled with Atrius
technology) and other third party data sources.
"Atrius provides a robust,
scalable and secure software platform that enables an array of
capabilities, including indoor positioning, asset tracking, space
utilization, spatial analytics and energy management," said Greg
Carter, Vice President and General Manager of Atrius. "By
leveraging data readily available through the Atrius platform,
technology providers can offer and custom develop true value-added
experiences for their customers. The Atrius platform offers
an array of endless possibilities to enhance the utilization of
space, empower better human interaction and deliver greater asset
and employee productivity."
Atrius solutions deliver
connectivity and intelligence to indoor and outdoor spaces via an
expansive network of smart LED lighting and controls and an IoT
platform that gathers, unlocks and transforms raw data to enable a
broad range of software solutions addressing critical business
challenges.
Atrius IoT applications can
utilize embedded technologies within LED lighting infrastructure
and controls, rather than requiring additional equipment like
stand-alone beacons or dedicated IoT networks, bringing a faster
return-on-investment. In addition, the conversion of conventional
lighting to LED lighting can provide energy savings to help fund
evolving IoT capabilities.
Atrius solutions are already
deployed across nearly 60 million square feet of indoor spaces.
Additionally, an installed base of Acuity Brands networked lighting
systems, encompassing more than one billion square feet, can now be
upgraded to a more multifunctional Atrius Sensory Network that can
supply IoT data to the Atrius platform.
