To promote networking, PHILPS lighting investment PointGrab sensors in intelligent buildings

According to the U.S. technology blog VentureBeat reported that the Israeli intelligence building sensor manufacturer PointGrab for its intelligent sensing architecture raised $7 million investment, investors including Mitsubishi UFJ Capital Co. investment institutions, the world's largest lighting equipment manufacturer PHILPS lighting, Japan's largest financial group (MUCAP), Switzerland ABB technology venture capital and other venture capital institutions. It is understood that PointGrab has also received $5 million in venture investment in November 2015. According to relevant data, intelligent sensor PointGrab manufacturing solutions can be detected by CogniPoint in the building, in addition, if no one in the building and the light is not needed, CogniPoint can automatically turn off the lights. The goal of PointGrab is to realize the effective management of the buildings, and by improving the utilization efficiency of energy saving money. CogniPoint solution of intelligent sensor solutions will be officially launched in early 2017. Intelligent sensing PointGrab manufacturing solutions by CogniPoint in high cost, small and has the optical fiber sensing device connectivity embedded in deep learning neural network technology can detect the analysis on resident access, positioning, counting and tracking provide detailed information CogniPoint intelligent sensor PointGrab solutions. Sensor output processed for analysis, using a plurality of building automation systems, such as lighting, warm air conditioning, security, access control and facility management, so as to reduce cost and improve work performance. PointGrab chief business officer Itamar Roth said: "CogniPoint super intelligent edge sensor technology plays a key role in the analysis for the core data capture building operation optimization and energy conservation improvement plan and business intelligence, we welcome our new partners, and affirmed the great contribution they make in our strategy on Intelligent building." PHILPS lighting director Jacques Letzelter said: "the PointGrab development of the sensor technology in the true sense of the industry's leading. When our customers need to optimize the space technology, as a strategic investor in PointGrab, which provide a strong competitive power for us. Will PointGrab technology into the lighting system we have connectivity to meet the greater market and further promote our things to achieve in the lighting industry field."
