About GridComm
gridComm makes Smart Cities Smarter with networked street lights and then uses that network to connect IOT sensors throughout the city. Simply open the street light door. Install a gridComm controller. Do this 100,000 times in a city and you have a smart city with connected street lights. Each contains our module with a gridcomm chip that communicates data across the city’s power lines. We then connect thousands of sensors to measure weather, pollution, traffic with the measurements over our street light control network. For more information, visit www.gridcomm-plc.com
