CSR announced that its CSRmesh technology was used by SK Telecom to enable a range of smart LED lightbulbs which also function as Bluetooth Smart beacons networked together using CSRmesh. This
combination of lighting, beacon, and mesh functionality is a world first, CSR said. The intelligent CSRmesh lighting system will allow an almost unlimited number of smart lightbulbs to be simply
controlled and networked together in-store while also enabling location-based special offers and targeted information to smartphone users. The system uses LED lightbulbs that fit into a
building’s existing lighting fixtures to provide a mesh network of intelligent lights that ‘double-up’ as beacons. The smart lightbulbs can then enable targeted information to be
sent using Bluetooth Smart to a user’s precise location in the store. SK Telecom’s complete intelligent lighting platform will be using smart lightbulbs that are fitted with a
pre-certified module based on theCSR1010 chipset.
