Summary

A start-up company from Singapore is a manufacturer of smart city lighting products. The company has developed light bulbs that emit Wi-Fi or 5G signals. In order to open up the market in Europe the company is looking for distribution partners in the telecommunications industry to establish 5G networks in European countries.

Description

The Singapore company is a developer and manufacturer of Wi-Fi and 5G light bulbs.

The product was developed by a team of experts in the span of 5 years.

The wireless light bulb works very similarly to the Wi-Fi mesh system that is available in the market.

The Wi-Fi ecosystem is created when the user installs the light bulbs in the house. Several light bulbs will be needed to cover the whole house. Electricity that is used to power both the bulb and Wi-Fi. Also, even if the light bulb 's light is switched off, it will continue to emit Wi-Fi signals. The team also has developed an application for users to control the brightness of the light bulbs.

The other product that the Singapore company developed are light bulbs that emit 5G signals. To provide a fast 5G network, base stations have to be established in a city/country. Base stations, also known as small cells when connected to marcocells are designed for localised coverage ranging from 10 to 100 metres. Thus, many such small cells are needed to ensure that a city is being covered by 5G network.

The problem in rolling out these small cells is that it is time consuming and costly to do. Thus, the Singapore company has provided a solution to solve the problem by introducing the 5G light bulb. The light bulb will be able to act as a small cell. The light bulb, when fitted into street lighting, will be able to provide 5G network coverage for a city/country. The bulb will be powered by the powerline.

The Singapore company is currently looking to bring the product to European countries and is looking for telecommunication companies as partners.

Advantages & innovations

The product is one-of-its-kind, it is a technology that has not been developed elsewhere. The usage of the 5G light bulb is a cost effective and time saving way of rolling out the 5G network in a city/country. For the wireless light bulb, the usage of the lighting circuit is less prone to interference. It also does not use a power outlet which can be saved for other devices. It is also easily installed in a plug-and-play fashion.

Stage of development

Already on the market

Partner sought

The Singapore company is looking for European telecommunication companies to work together in rolling 5G network in European countries. Companies that distribute telecommunication products like modems or routers are welcomed as well.
