The systems developed will provide the capability for real time monitoring and control of LED street light fixtures, provide dimming functions, detect and monitor failures, eliminate manual fixture inspections and operate with internet-based or power line carrier networks.
In 2007, the company announced its initial $2.9 million research and development program, which culminated in the development of the Satellite™ series of LED-based roadway luminaires. During the course of this project, LRL developed substantial intellectual property in the areas of thermal management, light engine design, and optics.
