Hodi Technologies Selects Greenvity's Turnkey IoT Solution for Next-Generation Smart LED Lighting Products


MILPITAS, Calif. --(Business Wire)--

Hodi Technologies, a premier LED lighting and smart-grid system company in China, has selected Greenvity Communications' Internet of Things (IoT) turnkey solutions for multiple Hodi smart lighting products. In addition, Greenvity and Hodi will collaborate to develop future products focused on controlled lighting and smart metering applications.

Greenvity's Smart LED Controller module (GV-LED), IoT Hub board (GV-Controller), IoT cloud and mobile app software have been integrated into a number of Hodi's next-generation smart LED lighting products, including multiple configurations of its downlights, street lights, T5 lights, T8 lights and other indoor and outdoor lights. These high quality lights feature dimming capability and color temperatures that enhance the aesthetic and mood of environments, as well as contribute to energy savings.

Hodi's smart LED lights are controlled by a Hodi gateway system that is powered by the IoT Hub technology and software from Greenvity. Thanks to Greenvity's Smart LED Controller module, consumers can remotely control the LED lights to different modes from on, off and dimming. The module also supports color temperature mixing that enables LED lights to vary in color from warm light to cool light at different levels. In addition, the IoT Hub supports mobile apps (Android (News - Alert) and iOS) and IoT cloud for remote control and monitoring of lighting over mobile devices anywhere in the world.



"We are pleased to collaborate with Greenvity to integrate their innovative IoT turnkey solution into our best-in-class LED lighting products for commercial and industrial buildings," said Mr. Tiger S. R. Chen, CEO of Hodi Technologies. "Combined with Greenvity's modules and software, Hodi's products are now IoT-enabled with cloud and mobile apps that can be controlled and monitored remotely from anywhere."
