Smallest LED lighting sensor features IoT Artificial Eye technology
The agreement, which was announced at the Hong Kong Lighting Fair, claims to create a new ‘standard’ in sensing, data and control for the LED lighting industry, and sees Gooee becoming the sole provider of the innovative opto-ASIC technology to luminaire manufacturers. Gooee has also agreed an exclusive partnership with EVRYTHNG’s IoT cloud platform, enabling Gooee to operate tens of millions of intelligent light endpoints in a global network.
Boasting multiple environmental, human and LED performance sensing capabilities, the advanced ASIC will be able to detect motion, direction, ambient light, LED colour temperature (CCT) variance, LED lux variance and ASIC operating temperature – all packaged in a 5 x 5 mm chip.
A step closer to connecting LED lighting manufacturers to the IoT with its novel ‘Full-Stack’ operating platform, Gooee has partnered with DELTA to focus on co-engineering and further developing more advanced sensing capabilities:
“At present we are only scratching the surface in terms of what this chip can do,” said Gooee CTO Simon Coombes. “We are working on some really incredible functionality that will give Gooee and its customers a significant competitive advantage in sensing for the IoT.”
Gert Jørgensen, DELTA’s VP of Sales & Marketing said: “We have invested significant time and money in R&D into our Artificial Eye technology, and have found a perfect application in the lighting and IoT world".
Founded in March 2014 by entrepreneur Andrew Johnson, Gooee has been in development for two years. DELTA Microelectronics is a Danish company offering services ranging from fabless ASIC design (front and back end), development of test solutions, production testing of components, wafer probing, failure analysis and logistics for the supply of components including purchasing of wafers and packaging. DELTA has a track record of more than 70 years and 35-year history in module manufacturing with companies like Nordic Semiconductor and IBM.
“DELTA has a successful history of developing technology-driven products, and specialises in the core competencies that we need to make our ASIC work, so we are really excited about this project,” said Coombes. “We are the only global company with exclusive access to this technology in the lighting sector.”
