RapidConnect Lighting & Sensor Development Kit
Overview
Many lighting and building automation vendors have recognized that wireless control systems can add significant value to their products. However, it can be difficult to get to market quickly with a robust and reliable solution that meets the requirements of the leading Zigbee-based platforms such as Current by GE's Daintree ControlScope system.
To that end, MMB has created the RapidConnect Lighting & Sensor firmware to run on our world-class RapidConnect hardware, providing out-of-the-box compatibility with Daintree ControlScope and other systems based on the Zigbee HA 1.2 (and soon Zigbee 3.0) specifications.
The RapidConnect Lighting & Sensor Development Kit includes firmware and hardware tools to enable rapid development of the following Zigbee-compliant devices:
- Dimmable Light
- Occupancy Sensor
- Light Sensor
- Multi-endpoint devices (i.e. combinations of the three devices above)
Save Time and Effort
With RapidConnect Lighting & Sensor, you will be able to complete a wireless lighting demonstration right from Day 1! Your team will no longer need to study thousands of pages of Zigbee and platform specification documents.
Benefit From our Experience
MMB has already helped some of the world's leading electronics vendors deploy Zigbee-compatible products to residential, commercial and industrial environments. We make it our mission to support all aspects of the product development process and get products to market.
Benefit From our Relationships
MMB has been a respected member of the Zigbee Alliance since 2008. We have made major contributions to the specifications and we have forged relationships with all of the leading home and building automation platform vendors. In fact, some of those platform vendors have made MMB their designated development partner and test house!
