GDS Lighting : end-to-end solution provider for City Digitalization

Digital Transformation is an issue impacting many different aspects of contemporary living , ranging across the cultural , organisational , social , creative and managerial spheres . In the lighting area , the change brought about by new technologies is increasingly associated with the concept of City Digitisation . Pinpointing a clear definition of this latter concept is a daunting task , as the changes brought about by the application of digital technology in the urban sphere trace ever-expanding perimeters and open up ever evolving horizons . What will the cities of the future be like ? Most certainly connected , built on networks of interacting things , generating energy efficiency , environmental sustainability and integrated security .

Our expertise in digitising urban spaces GDS has carved out a role for itself in the context of City Digitisation thanks to the experience gained over the years on technologies that enable the evolution towards digitalisation , as it has been working for more than 40 years on the fields of electronics and technology for communicating information via displays to citizens . Building on this expertise , GDS has been developing the Lighting business unit over the last 15 years , implementing versatile and robust LED lighting solutions for urban and industrial environments . A connected , quality public lighting system has a direct impact on energy savings , visual well-being and safety issues . With SkylarkNet , GDS Lighting provides city managers with a complete solution , integrating remote control of in-house manufactured luminaires with a variety of data management solutions . By exploiting the digital infrastructure created for lighting control , the scalability and interoperability of the system , additional sensors , such as smart parking , noise detection units , traffic and weather detectors , can be integrated , and the quantity and quality of light actually required for the different situations of communal living can thus be adjusted . GDS thus presents itself as a concrete enabler of the city ’ s digital evolution process , contributing to the widespread dissemination of accessible real-time information , optimal light modulation and data transfer for the connected city .
GDS by design GDS Lighting provides urban connectivity solutions that stem from in-house research , design , testing and solid experience gained through its worldwide installations . The company is characterised by its ability to directly manufacture in-house and integrate the electronic , optical and software control components into its solutions . It is an end-to-end comprehensive approach , encompassing Optiwise , a range of proprietary optical systems , Sentronic , a range of power supply solutions , as well as the portfolio of urban and industrial lighting and SkylarkNet , the open connectivity system for smart cities that merges software infrastructure with a range of networkable hardware objects . This unicum , which lies at the core of GDS Lighting ’ s proposal , can be summed up in GDS by design , the identity concept behind the solutions entirely developed by the company and which concisely expresses its philosophy , guiding its work from a strategic , research and innovation point of view , as well as from a production one .
