Networked Lighting Control

Networked lighting control systems feature an intelligent network of individually addressable and sensor-rich luminaires and control devices that allows each component of the system to send and receive data. Bluetooth® networked lighting control systems are deployed in offices, retail, healthcare, factories, and other commercial facilities to deliver a combination of energy savings, an enhanced occupant experience, and more efficient building operations.

According to ABI Research, Bluetooth® networked lighting control is experiencing mainstream traction. The proliferation of LEDs, a desire for greater energy efficiency, faster deployment capabilities, and a higher-quality occupant experience are driving the demand for Bluetooth commercial networked lighting control solutions.

Electronic Shelf Labels

With the introduction of a wireless standard for the electronic shelf label (ESL) market, Bluetooth® technology is helping unlock the next phase in retail digital transformation to deliver better outcomes for both stores and shoppers. Electronic shelf labels provide always-accurate pricing, increased access to real-time promotions and product information, and a more gratifying and cohesive omnichannel experience. 

Retailers can use electronic shelf labels to streamline picking and fulfillment for click and collect shoppers while also accelerating shelf replenishments to optimize product availability on shelves and avoid missed sales. “Retailers are increasingly looking towards IoT technologies to help deliver operational efficiencies, increase conversion, and to encourage customers to return to stores in the post-COVID-19 landscape,” said Andrew Zignani, ABI Research. 

334 million bluetooth electronic shelf label devices will ship by 2027

Condition Monitoring

Bluetooth® condition monitoring is driving greater sensorization.  Machines and equipment used in the manufacturing processes are already being monitored by large networks of wireless sensors, and more vendors in industrial settings are increasingly looking to maximize condition monitoring benefits, such as preventive and predictive maintenance that can help avoid costly repairs. Analysts anticipate seeing a long tail of use cases within this segment as more companies leverage a wide range of condition monitoring solutions.
