World-Class IoT Lighting Solution

Cree Lighting is an industry leader in lighting technology, so much so that their Intelligent Lighting division was recently purchased for $300 Million. The Cree Lighting Cadiant tablet application is a perfect testimony to innovation and execution in the world of IoT and smart lighting technology. The Cree Lighting engineering team developed an innovative, unique lighting array that can simulate a real skylight's lighting conditions throughout the day. The Cree engineering team partnered with Lithios to develop a consumer facing tablet application to control lighting, temperature, and other tablet settings. The Cadiant Touchscreen Control's tablet integrates directly with Cree Lighting's world-class lighting system to offer complete and advanced controls in a seamless, easy-to-use interface.

The Challenge

Lithios was tasked by the Cree Lighting engineering team to create a consumer-facing lighting controller on mobile for it's enterprise-grade lighting technology. The team challenged us with integrating a skylight tablet app directly with a proprietary mobile gateway to have direct API access and communication with the lighting fixtures and sensors.

The Power of IoT

The Cadiant Touchscreen Controls tablet app offers full control and flexibility over the innovative Cree Lighting skylight hardware. The Skylight Light simulates a real skylight experience, taking you from morning to evening with a myriad of rich blues, oranges, and color intensities. Users can update their lighting preferences in real time through the tablet controls. We focused on giving instant feedback through animations, transitions, and a smooth experience for end users.

Why Lithios?

Through this engagement, the Lithios team designed and developed an Android application for tablet use alongside Cree's award winning office lighting products. We worked in tandem with Cree Lighting to deploy the application to all of their enterprise lighting customers across the United States.
