NEWARK, N.J. and NEW HOPE, Pa., June 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Solbright Group, Inc. (OTCQB: SBRT), a multi-faceted energy services and technology company and M2M Spectrum Networks, LLC dba iotaComm, a company that provides comprehensive Internet of Things (IoT) communication solutions, today announced an agreement in which the two companies will work together to offer a comprehensive, next-generation Smart Facilities line of products and services called SF Net.
Leveraging expertise and resources from both companies, SF Net combines a network and suite of solutions that will provide corporate and campus facility managers with a one-stop, turnkey-installed, facility-wide, carrier-grade network and applications platform with an extensive set of ready-to-implement applications. Pricing will start as low as 2 cents per square foot per month and will be maintained and monitored by iotaComm 24/7.
iotaComm, with offices in New Hope, PA and Phoenix, AZ, provides comprehensive solutions for creating, connecting and managing communications for IoT. They created the first dedicated, national, carrier-grade wireless network system which standardizes and simplifies IoT network access for end-customers.
iotaComm’s network system connects standard Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and WiFi-based beacons and sensors to its Cloud Platform data store, from which any end-user application can access location, tracking, or sensor-based data for inclusion into end-user management systems.
As part of their continuing rollout of nationwide wireless coverage, which will be a big benefit to SF Net, iotaComm also announced the region-wide rollout of its network system to fully cover Newark, NJ, Phoenix, AZ and Las Vegas, NV.
Solbright, with offices in Newark, NJ and Charleston, SC, leverages their proprietary BrightAI™ IoT platform with energy efficiency services, such as automated Evaluation, Measurement and Verification (EM&V) LED lighting, solar PV, and predictive maintenance in order to increase efficiency and reduce cost.
BrightAI™ is a converged IoT-based management platform that can monitor indoor air quality or mechanical sensors, meters, or building automation and control devices in a facility. It features energy management and predictive maintenance applications by way of a cloud control dashboard. BrightAI™ is ideal for many facility IoT applications including monitoring and alerting, demand response, demand control ventilation and predictive analytics.
Together, the synergies of both companies provide the technological backbone for SF Net as the mobile-enabled end-user applications will include:
- Energy analytics and demand response
- Facility-wide micro-tracking of individual items or important assets down to 1 meter resolution
- Evaluation, Measurement and Verification (EM&V)
- Photo imaging capability for visual monitoring and control
- Predictive analytics, maintenance and early-warning fault notification for operating machinery
- Proximity-based alerting and response
- Remote temperature, humidity, light and air quality monitoring and control
The Solbright-iotaComm team plans to launch SF Net with current Solbright partner, the Ying Wu College of Computing at New Jersey Institute of Technology as well as current iotaComm customer Arizona Christian University.
Today’s announcement is part of an ongoing business building approach by Solbright to create strategic partnerships and alliances with like-minded growth companies that complement their products and services in an effort to increase sales and grow their brand.
