Abstract: A flexible lighting tube and universal architectural mounting system for lighting upon municipal utility poles. The mounting system is a bracket having the form of an inverted track to receive a lighting tube. The bracket may have a base and plurality of flanges used to either hold the lighting tube or attach to a pole. The base and flanges form a U-like shape and are made from a flexible material allowing the bracket to be shaped to conform to a pole to which it attaches. A foam layer may be inserted between the bracket and tube to inhibit unintended disconnection.

Abstract: Systems and methods for modifying a municipal fixture to affix endpoint devices, provide a power to such devices, and managing network traffic between and among such devices, including managing upstream transmission and efficiently propagating desired state changes through the network. The systems and methods described herein generally use a plurality of mesh radio transmitters which are configured for peer-to-peer data exchange to propagate system state changes to one or more uplink gateways. The gateways may then aggregate this data and transmit it over a wide area network to a server or server farm for processing, analysis, and other use. That data may also be viewed in real time by user devices, and instructions and commands may also be relayed to the individual IoT devices in the mesh network via such user devices.

Abstract: A luminaire control device for use with a municipal light pole. The device is plugged into a standard dimming receptacle and includes a universal power supply for converting AC power received in any of the common municipal distribution voltages to a uniform DC output usable by small electronic components of an accompanying control system. The universal power supply and control system are configured to fit within the form factor required by applicable standards. The control system includes program logic to control the luminaire by sending control signals via the dimming receptacle. These signals may be sent using one, two, or more control channels as defined by the standard, and may control a single luminaire or multiple luminaires via the different channels. The device may further include a wireless transceiver to facilitate remote access and control of the light, allowing a municipal light pole to be retrofitted as an IoT device.

Abstract: A cobra arm enclosure device has a hull, a lid, and features for a light pole and a light fixture to attach hereto. The device has a generally rectangular prismatic form that sheds precipitation and ice. It has a top surface upon the lid, a bottom surface upon the hull, a left side, a right side, a front, and a back. The enclosure has an extension that fits into a light fixture. The back of the enclosure has a receiver that fits upon a light pole arm. The enclosure has a width generally greater than that of the cobra arm. Within the invention, it has a storage capacity for electrical components. The invention is an inline enclosure for direct transmission of electrical power and signaling. The invention serves in a system where a central control operates street lighting across a city.
