Next-gen solutions include AI video accessory that brings adaptive lighting, traffic intelligence, and curb analytics to existing streetlight infrastructure.
Ubicquia is expanding its intelligent streetlighting ecosystem with a coordinated suite of next-generation solutions designed to help utilities and municipalities modernise streetlight networks.
The new offering includes the debut of the UbiCell Micro universal streetlight controller, significant enhancements to the UbiVu management platform, and the introduction of UbiScout, an AI powered video accessory that brings adaptive lighting, traffic intelligence, and kerb analytics to existing streetlight infrastructure.
Boosting operational and energy efficiency
Central to the launch is the UbiCell Micro, a compact and intelligent streetlight controller. Smaller than a standard photocell, it is designed to meet the highest utility standards for metering, surge protection, power quality, tilt, and vibration. It is compatible with all dimming protocols including 0-10V, DALI, and D4i.
With dual-LUX sensors and high-powered assisted GPS, it enables seamless operations with both roadway and ornamental fixtures. With a single modem and eSIM support, UbiCell Micro can be deployed globally across public and private cellular networks.
“Ubicquia is leading the shift to intelligent infrastructure with solutions that are simple to deploy, simple to manage, and measurably improve operational and energy efficiency,” said Ian Aaron, CEO of Ubicquia. “UbiCell Micro, UbiVu platform enhancements, and UbiScout are the result of listening to our more than one thousand city and utility customers.”
UbiVu is now deployed across more than 1,000 cities and utilities and has become a foundational platform for critical infrastructure, including streetlights, transformers, utility poles, and security and safety video.
The newest release of UbiVu supports integration with third-party sensors, work-order management, inventory management, and a redesigned web interface for outage reporting. UbiVu enables cities and utilities to enhance asset management, streamline workflows, improve customer response times, and significantly reduce operational expenses and truck rolls.
Meanwhile, UbiScout, an AI-powered video accessory for UbiCell controllers, delivers adaptive lighting, traffic analytics, and kerb management capabilities. It provides insights into pedestrian and vehicle activity, kerb and streetscape analytics, and roadway conditions, and enables cities to slighting levels.
This plug-and-play integration allows cities and utilities to transform streetlights into multi-purpose sensors enhancing safety, mobility. and operational efficiceny.
