Schréder, Experts in lightability™

SynchroniCity is a large scale IoT pilot project to create and pilot new digital solutions that will improve city life. Our project will leverage real-time traffic data to provide added-value services in the fields of adaptive lighting, traffic optimisation, and public safety with existing street lighting infrastructure.

In just a few days, the second largest multi-sport event in the world, the Pan American Games 2019 will open.

From 26th July to 11th August, more than 6,500 athletes from 42 countries will be competing for medals on the courts, tracks, fields and swimming pools. 

Schréder is proud to have delivered a range of sustainable lighting solutions that ensure perfect visibility so that the competitors can concentrate on the action while viewers at home can enjoy sharp and vivid images.

Light itself is not the pollutant, but its obtrusive nature is. The International Dark-Sky Association defines light pollution as “the inappropriate or excessive use of artificial light. That can take many forms, including glare, or excessive brightness; sky glow, which drowns out the night sky over urban areas; light trespass, or stray light falling where it is not needed; and clutter, or confusing groups of bright light sources.”

Upgrading lighting within factories, warehouses and other industrial areas can deliver huge benefits for both employers and employees. Schréder business segment manager - industry & large area, Cédric Collard, explains more about how to deliver high quality and compliant lighting infrastructure in this new Q&A.
