Greenvity and Mitsumi collaborate on IoT turnkey solution
for low-voltage outdoor lighting
Greenvity and Mitsumi deliver a complete cloud-enabled smart LED
solution for decorative, parking lot and landscape & deck lights
MILPITAS, Calif. – Jan. 5, 2015 – Greenvity Communications and Mitsumi Electric have
expanded their collaborative relationship to include development and manufacturing of a
complete Internet of Things (IoT) turnkey solution with cloud and mobile apps for low
voltage LED lights in outdoor applications. LED lighting OEMs and ODMs can transform
conventional low-voltage outdoor lights into energy-efficient smart lights with
controllability for turning on/off, dimming and color temperature mixing to enhance the
aesthetic of the environment in all weather conditions.
This innovative smart LED solution is feature-rich with capability to control lights from
anywhere in the world using mobile apps (Android and iOS) along with zone grouping
and scheduling. The intelligence and communication of the IoT turnkey solution is
powered by Greenvity’s GV7013 system-on-chip (SoC) with powerline communications
(PLC) and an embedded 8051 microcontroller for lighting control. The GV-LED-Mini-DP
kit is now available from Greenvity and customers can use Greenvity’s cloud and mobile
apps without license fee.
The IoT turnkey solution for low voltage LED lights consists of Greenvity’s IoT Hub
board (GV-Controller-S), Smart LED Controller module for low voltage LED (GV-LED-
Mini), IoT cloud and mobile apps (Android and Apple’s iOS). The GV-LED-Mini is a
small form-factor module that can be integrated into various types of low voltage LED
lights from decorative lights, parking lot lights, and landscape & deck lights. The solution
can support from 12 volts up to 30 volts for low voltage LED lighting. The IoT Hub is
equipped with ARM9 microprocessor and WiFi with application software that enables
cloud and mobile app connection.
“We are pleased to collaborate with Greenvity to develop and manufacture this
innovative IoT turnkey solution for low voltage LED lighting products for outdoor
lighting,” said Fujio Furukawa, Mitsumi’s senior vice president and chief executive of
Electronic Device Business HQ. “Combined with Greenvity’s chip, software, cloud and
mobile apps, Mitsumi offers world-class manufacturing capability to enable high volume
production with unmatched quality.”
