About The Customer
The Challenge
In the Buildings space, connecting to the data in various systems has always been difficult and complicated; controlling those systems was even harder. The number of proprietary gateways, layers of complicated technology, and disparate programming languages has made it impossible to effectively collect and analyze data or control the various systems in the building without monstrous, bloated building automation applications.
The Solution
relayr is excited to be the first software partner in Cisco’s newly announced Digital Ceiling Ecosystem. As LED systems become the lighting standard in offices and other buildings, previously unsolvable business challenges now have almost limitless possibilities for solutions.
The Cisco Digital Ceiling enables the convergence of currently siloed building networks—lighting, heating and cooling, IP video, IoT sensors, and much more—through a secure and intelligent network platform. New, even more energy efficient LEDs can now be powered by the network through Power over Ethernet (PoE), and they come natively equipped with sensors. Each luminaire is now a valuable IP end point, capable of collecting and communicating data from the ceiling directly to your network.
How relayr powers Smart Cities:
• A horizontal middleware platform that enables the connection of heterogeneous systems and infrastructures
• Real time and multi-protocol data streaming and analytics support
• Rules engine triggering SMS, email and app notifications in real time
The Digital Ceiling brings together many different building systems. relayr is an enabler layer that helps businesses extract business value from the data collected via connected devices and systems. We provide a way to analyze it, and deliver the right data in the right way to the right people and services. relayr’s protocol agnostic platform provides the ability for our customers and partners to retrieve data and make it meaningful.

Intelligent Building Automation System and Energy Saving Solution
One of the most difficult problems facing the world is conserving energy in buildings. However, it is not easy to have a cost-effective solution to reduce energy usage in a building. One solution for saving energy is to implement an intelligent building automation system (BAS) which can be controlled according to its schedule. In Indonesia a large university with a five floor building and 22 classrooms wanted to save the amount of energy being used.
