Signify Interact for Outdoor Spaces

Connected outdoor lighting for smarter cities, sports venues and transportation

Signify Interact for Outdoor Spaces is an AI-enabled connected outdoor lighting platform for smart cities, sports venues and transportation infrastructure. It brings LED luminaires, sensors, controls and software together in one scalable system, transforming sensor and IoT data into actionable insights. The connected network can be managed centrally and integrated with other systems to support smarter, more informed decisions.

Smarter, simpler, more efficient lighting

Adapt light levels to traffic, daylight, weather and activity so illumination is provided where and when it is needed. This helps cities and site operators save energy, simplify maintenance, improve visual comfort and create safer, more responsive public spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

What hardware is needed for a connected outdoor lighting system?

A connected outdoor lighting system built on Signify Interact for Outdoor Spaces combines connect-ready LED luminaires with outdoor light controllers. Each light point can be controlled individually using cellular controllers or RF mesh controllers linked to a segment controller, or lights can be managed in groups through cabinet controllers. Outdoor MultiSensors can be added for adaptive lighting and data. On-grid and solar luminaires are managed on the same platform, through the Interact dashboard. Luminaires with a Zhaga-D4i socket can be connected at installation or later. See connect-ready luminaires in the road and street and urban categories.

What does the cloud software for connected outdoor lighting let operators do?

With Signify Interact, operators manage outdoor lighting remotely from one platform. For cities and roads, the Interact dashboard lets teams set schedules and dimming levels, override lighting manually, and adjust light levels to real-time traffic and weather. Real-time fault notifications help fix issues quickly, and reports track energy use and asset performance across light points, cabinets, on-grid and solar luminaires, and sensors. For sports venues, Interact for Sports adds scene management, so operators can create and trigger lighting scenes and synchronize them with audio and video for matches, concerts and events. Both offer user access controls and open APIs to connect with other systems.

How does lighting asset management reduce maintenance effort?

Lighting asset management keeps one live inventory of every asset in the cloud platform, replacing manual spreadsheets for tracking luminaires and connected devices. Real-time fault alerts identify which light point needs attention before a crew is dispatched, which means fewer site visits. Maintenance planning can draw on current system data, which helps operators of large outdoor portfolios run more efficiently.

How does scene management work for events and emergencies?

Scene management lets operators define preset scenes for events and emergencies, then activate them with one command instead of adjusting luminaires manually. Scenes can cover landmarks, parks and matchdays. A city, sports venue or transport operator can switch the selected area from routine operation to event or emergency lighting. Scenes are programmed in the cloud platform alongside schedules and dimming profiles.

How much energy can connected outdoor lighting save?

Signify Interact for Outdoor Spaces enables energy savings of up to 80% compared with conventional lighting. The savings come from automatic dimming and scheduling: lighting adapts to daylight, traffic and weather, so energy is used only when needed rather than following a fixed calendar. Actual savings depend on the existing installation, the luminaires selected and the dimming profiles applied. They should be assessed per project with Signify or an authorised partner.

Can a connected outdoor lighting system start small and scale later?

Yes. The platform is designed to be scalable and upgradeable, so a deployment can begin with a single site and expand over time. Multisite management gives one dashboard view that scales from a district to an entire country, and it works with third-party controllers. Installation is designed to be fast and simple, with remote control of every site once luminaires are connected to the network.

Is DALI used to network outdoor luminaires in Interact for Outdoor Spaces?

Generally not. In Interact for Outdoor Spaces, DALI works locally inside each luminaire: the controller uses DALI to dim the LED driver and, with D4i drivers, to read asset and energy data stored in the driver. Network-level scheduling, monitoring and remote dimming are handled by Interact through RF mesh or cellular communication, not through a DALI bus connecting luminaires.

Which services can Signify provide for a connected outdoor lighting project?

Signify offers optional design, installation and maintenance services alongside the hardware and software. One company covers the luminaires, the solar range, the connected platform and lifecycle support. Because services are optional, a city, venue or transport operator can engage Signify for a complete project or for specific stages only.

Does Signify Interact for Outdoor support solar lighting?

Yes. A full range of solar luminaires runs on the same Signify Interact platform as grid-powered fixtures, so off-grid and hard-to-wire sites don’t need a separate system.

What is Traffic and Weather Adaptive Lighting?

It enables lighting levels to be dynamically adapted in response to changing traffic and weather conditions - supporting visibility where and when it’s needed, and dimming during lower-demand conditions to help reduce energy consumption compared with calendar-based operation. For more details, visit Adaptable lighting.

Can Signify Interact for Outdoor integrate with a city’s or venue’s existing systems?

Yes. Open APIs allow a deployment to connect to existing city, venue, or transportation infrastructure through the Signify Interact, including interoperability with third-party nodes, rather than requiring a replacement of what’s already in place.

How is Signify Interact secured?

Signify Interact is the first connected lighting system certified to IEC 62443-4-1 for operational technology, Signify’s cybersecurity standard for outdoor connected systems, and is backed by ISO 27001-certified information security practices. For more details on product security, visit https://www.signify.com/global/product-security/professional-systems-and-services.
