lumenTracker™ by

Versatile and scalable smart building technology that enables easier lighting control retrofits with no new wires and/or line-of-sight needed...

Our mission: Through engineering innovation, we strive to develop smart technologies aimed at conserving energy in commercial lighting applications and with near-zero impact to existing infrastructure.

What we offer and how we are different: The lumenTracker™ line of products (expected launch: Q4-2025) offers a patented and innovative IoT technology which is geared to revolutionize the lighting control industry.

Some of the claims where lumenTracker™ is made to stand out:

• designed to work with all llighting technologies (LED, Fluorescent, CFL, HID, etc.)

• simpler/quicker installation (no new wires/no line-of-sight needed)

• de-centralized control schemes where diversified module personalities can be easily achieved/combined and configured (via NFC and App), some of which include manual on/off, automated scheduling, and/or sensor-based activation (e.g., occupancy)

• up to 256 distributed zones ("zone it like you mean it")

• machine learning (ML) algorithm provides smart lighting control strategies and predictive maintenance

• quicker paybacks (<2 years ROI in most common building installations)

  Summary fact sheet (based on EIA's Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey - CBECS 2012)

• In 2018, the United States was estimated to have about 5.9 million commercial buildings, totaling about 96.4 billion square feet of floorspace, where energy consumption in these buildings was calculated at 6.8 quadrillion British Thermal Units (BTUs). As applicable to building type (principal end function), warehouse and storage buildings, followed by office buildings, were at the top of the list, and they accounted for the highest amount of floorspace (square footage) being used. Office buildings were considered the highest energy consumer (per square foot) when compared to any other type of U.S. commercial building.

• An estimated 17% of all electricity consumed in commercial buildings was attributed to lighting.

• Standard fluorescent was by far the most commonly used type of lighting with 93% of commercial buildings (lit buildings) using standard fluorescent lights, and 78% of lit floorspace being illuminated by standard fluorescent. Compact fluorescent (CFL) came in after, as the second most commonly used type of lighting, where compact fluorescent (CFL) provided light to 13% of all lit spaces in commercial buildings. Compact fluorescent (CFL) is often seen to replace incandescent type bulbs, a lighting type that has seen a decrease in use since 2003.

• Occupancy sensors which activate with the presence of people in a room or space, and therefore reduce lighting (by turning off or dimming) when rooms are unoccupied was considered the most common lighting control strategy used. Occupancy sensors were used in 16% of all lit buildings and in 55% of large lit buildings in 2015. This lighting control strategy and depending on the areas where these are installed (e.g., where there is minimal or infrequent occupancy), is estimated to achieve the greatest energy savings.
  
  Some examples (estimated savings):
  Corridors/Hallways/Stairwells (30-80%)
  Restrooms (30-90%)
  Storage areas (45-80%)
  Warehouse (35-54%).
  
  Scheduling was considered yet another popular lighting control strategy used, where based on time of day, scheduling automatically dims or turns off lights at certain times of the day. Scheduling was used in 18% of all lit buildings and in 43% of large lit buildings in 2015.
