Networked lighting systems are unlocking the Internet of Things for healthcare facilities, offering capabilities that include occupancy and vacancy sensing, flexible programming, task tuning and daylight harvesting, according to an article on the FacilityCare website.
Networked lighting systems allow healthcare facilities to increase energy savings and light quality and collect data on energy usage, customer tracking and space utilization.
The system can also connect and communicate with other building systems — such as HVAC, demand response systems, security, safety as well as other space management applications.
This connectivity among key healthcare facility systems can enable a new level of control that benefits the bottom line.
