ACADA Light is an open system for managing public lighting that eliminates vendor lock-in and allows for the integration of various types of luminaires and communication units. With this flexibility, cities can utilize a wide range of devices and technologies without being limited to a single platform.
The system offers advanced features for managing light profiles, organizing, and manually controlling luminaires. Additionally, it enables fault detection and automatic notifications in the event of a luminaire failure, making lighting management and maintenance easier. This ensures efficient and reliable operation of public lighting with minimal costs.

ACADA cloud supports different types of control radio units with regard to the type of installation or the customer’s wishes. These are external Zhaga/Nema units, but also internal DALI converters.
ACADA Light is designed to support a wide range of hardware from various suppliers, allowing you to choose and combine components based on your specific requirements and budget.
This not only enables you to take advantage of the latest technologies without being tied to a single vendor, but also allows for the integration of existing systems and infrastructure elements.
This approach minimizes the need for complex and costly modifications, while ensuring you can utilize the best the market has to offer without concerns about technical issues or incompatibility.

Our goal is to interfere as little as possible with our customers’ infrastructure. The radio units are installed in standard sockets on the luminaire and the communication gateway is usually placed on one of the public lighting poles or completely outside the lighting system.
The communication gateway is designed as a separate unit with an external antenna and requires only an electrical power supply and a suitable location with regard to high-quality radio and GSM signal reception. In the case of mounting on a public lighting pole, which is switched off by an external sensor, we provide a battery-backed gateway that ensures continuous operation, even in the event of a power failure.

The ACADA user interface is designed for the mass management of end devices, not just public lighting. It supports a variety of other devices and enables easy integration of completely new devices with your public lighting system.
The dashboard displays groups in which devices can be organized, allowing the creation of different views, such as grouping lamps by streets, electrical cabinets, phases, and more.

Each group is evaluated separately and according to the selected criteria, for example phase failure signaling, street off, error status, the given group is alerted on the dashboard.
These KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are chosen by the user, for example send an alert when the voltage drops below a certain limit, or alert if one of the lights does not light up during the night, etc.
KPIs also serve as filters, when the system displays those devices that are currently alerting. KPIs are displayed in color on the dashboard and at the same time it is possible to set e-mail notifications if the given alert occurs.

Public lighting lamps regularly send operational information and GPS locations (depending on the type of device). This information is stored in a database and can be displayed graphically on an interactive map.
It is possible to work with individual devices both on the map and in a table or graph.
The map information is used to quickly find the desired light fixture in case of service intervention, it also provides an overview of the status of the light fixtures.
Map materials can be processed with passportization.

Public lighting lamps regularly send operational information and GPS locations (depending on the type of device). This information is stored in a database and can be viewed and evaluated retrospectively.
Each parameter, or a group of parameters of a given device can be displayed in a graph with the selection of a time period. It is thus possible to compare the parameters with each other and also to export to XLS format.
The history is kept for the entire life of the given device.

Vendor lock-in is a persistent issue in public lighting, where customers are forced to use technologies and services from a single supplier. This problem limits flexibility, drives up costs, and reduces competitiveness. ACADA Street Light offers an innovative solution, enabling suppliers and integrators of public lighting to use a mix of different technologies, freeing them from reliance on a single provider.
What is Vendor Lock-In?
Vendor lock-in occurs when customers become dependent on the products or services of a single manufacturer. This situation often arises due to specific technological standards, proprietary solutions, or incompatibility with other systems. Vendor lock-in restricts choice, often leading to higher maintenance costs, more expensive updates, and difficulties in system expansion.
How Does ACADA Street Light Solve Vendor Lock-In?
ACADA Street Light is designed to enable seamless integration of diverse technologies from various manufacturers. Here’s how it achieves this:

As urban environments continue to evolve, cities need more than just efficient street lighting; they require an integrated approach to managing various aspects of urban infrastructure. ACADA Street Light is designed to be more than just a public lighting solution. It provides a flexible platform that seamlessly integrates a range of smart city technologies, including energy meters, environmental sensors, smart waste bins, parking sensors, and water level monitors.
The Need for Integration in Smart Cities
Cities today face significant challenges in resource management, sustainability, and improving the quality of life for their residents. Integrating diverse smart devices into a unified platform allows cities to monitor and control various aspects of urban life in real-time. Without a system capable of integrating these technologies, cities may encounter inefficiencies, higher costs, and fragmented management.
ACADA Street Light: Beyond Just Lighting
ACADA Street Light is not only a public lighting management system but a comprehensive platform that supports the integration of essential smart city devices.
1. Energy Meters
Effective energy management is crucial for cities. ACADA Street Light integrates with energy meters to provide real-time data on energy consumption across different sectors, including public lighting and buildings. This allows cities to optimize energy use, reduce costs, and implement energy-saving initiatives. The platform supports various types of meters, enabling comprehensive monitoring of electricity, water, and gas consumption from a single interface.
2. Environmental Sensors
Air quality, temperature, humidity, and noise levels are vital factors affecting urban living. ACADA Street Light facilitates the integration of environmental sensors that provide real-time data on these parameters. This information can be used to implement measures to improve air quality, manage heat islands, and reduce noise pollution, ultimately enhancing the urban environment.
3. Smart Waste Bins
Efficient waste management is essential for maintaining clean and orderly public spaces. ACADA Street Light integrates with smart waste bins equipped with sensors to monitor fill levels. This integration helps cities optimize waste collection routes, reduce unnecessary pickups, and lower operational costs. By incorporating these bins into the ACADA platform, cities can achieve cleaner public areas and more efficient waste management.
4. Parking Sensors
Managing parking efficiently is another critical aspect of a smart city. ACADA Street Light integrates with parking sensors that track the availability of parking spaces in real-time. This data guides drivers to available spots, reduces traffic congestion, and improves overall parking efficiency. The integration with ACADA allows cities to synchronize parking management with other smart city functions, creating a more coordinated urban experience.
5. Water Level Monitors
Managing water resources is crucial, especially in the face of climate change. ACADA Street Light supports the integration of water level monitors that track the levels of rivers, reservoirs, and stormwater systems. This data helps cities predict and manage risks associated with both flooding and low water levels, enabling proactive measures to protect infrastructure and residents. The ability to integrate water level monitors into the platform ensures that cities are better prepared for extreme weather events and water shortages.
