SunComm and Reios - innovative startups Vision of WiFi & Light Our market The innovation The market response
Reios Srl Innovative Startup Reios Srl was founded at the end of 2013 by the founding members Massimo Viglione and Diego Salsa From July 2014 it is an innovative startup - pursuant to Italian Decree-Law no. 179/2012 In 2015 a three-year development and investment plan of the Wifi&Light project was defined for over 700,000 euros in R&D, growth of the structure and commercial development. Its execution allowed Reios to propose itself in the ICT market and energy saving with advanced Wi-Fi and integrated lighting solutions The Ministry of Economic Development in May 2015 awarded the innovation of the Wifi&Light investment program, with a loan of 900,000 euros In 2018 new investors funded Reios Srl and SunComm has been founded to own 100% Reios Srl
Reios Srl - Startup Innovativa Starting from 2015, as part of the WiFi&Light project, Reios established important partnerships with companies, universities and professionals essential for the development of the project, the corporate structure and for the establishment of its value in terms of intellectual property.

Vision The connectivity between the devices and the cloud will be essentially Wireless! Nature communicates through light
Vision... the wireless infrastructure market is on the rise and "chasing" the one of connected and connectable devices generating a commercial space for innovative products.
The Market
The Market The Wireless market growth Available Market The available market, measurable in billions of euros, is being analyzed with the contribution of DIHs, ICT Consulting firms, and other authoritative partners 2015 2020 2025 Wireless connected devices Wireless infrastructures
Breakthrough A new intrinsically economical and reliable connectivity infrastructure is available to the IoT The IoT will use one "Mass enabling infrastructure"
Execution
Execution An innovative approach provide WiFi connectivity seamlessly with lighting systems, be they industrial, commercial or public service remove the centralized control of wireless networks in favor of distributed and scalable control use communication systems consistent with the standards (802.11) to follow the principle that "where is light there is human activity and therefore a request for connectivity"
Execution An innovative approach Opening the use of Mesh nodes to sensors and actuators, increasing at the same time the coverage and effectiveness of the Wi-Fi network Development of a very highly effective Wi-Fi Mesh protocol between radio nodes with lower hardware costs compared to Access Point-based systems and compliant with standards The Wi-Fi Mesh infrastructure imitates an optical fiber that is always open to a wireless connection, not physically but conceptually
Strenghts of Ability to enable additional services on the wireless network: typically IoT services large residual bandwidth, net of that used to adjust the lighting Generation of a numb" of wireless network where the need for services is higher: the illuminated areas Scalable system the increase in the number of nodes does not imply an increase in the complexity and costs of managing the network both hw and sw WiFi & Light is fully an enabling technology in Factory 4.0 and Enterprise 4.0 rewarding in fiscal and financial terms in Italy The customers to whom WiFi & Light has been proposed identify specific uses of the system, expanding its opportunities for use
Strenghts of WiFi & Light has been fully promoted as an enabling technology for IoT services and innovative by DIHs of: Torino Iren, Comau, Prima Industrie Parma Mutti, Barilla WiFi & Light has been validated as an enabling and innovative technology by ICT Consulting, a leading company in strategic consulting on information and communication technologies: Milano A2A Smart City DIH WHAT ARE THEY DOING Directly or through the innovation ecosystem (University, Competence Center, Cluster, Test Lab / Industrial Player Centers / ICT Services, Research Centers, Science Parks and Technology Poles, Start-up Incubators, Fab Labs, Investors, Local Authorities ) DIH offer: assisting SMEs in the analysis of needs, opportunities and technological options 4.0; mentoring and training at the factory; support for the construction of industry 4.0 projects; access to the network of national and European Competence Centers and collaborations with technological clusters; advice on Industry 4.0 (intellectual property, tax, business modeling, evaluation of investment projects); self-assessment of digital maturity; access to public and private, national and European projects and funding.
Maximize Productivity and Innovation, Minimize Risks and Costs Scale rapidly: WiFi&Light mesh networks can scale seamlessly to provide ubiquitous coverage in all corners of the plant, with nodes easily deployed to augment or create infrastructure ad-hoc. In fact, the more nodes you add, the more resilient the network becomes. Lower TCO: with no cables to run, WiFi&Light wireless networks can be deployed cost effectively in just days or weeks instead of months. The network s ongoing maintenance and management costs are also minimal.
Maximize Productivity and Innovation, Minimize Risks and Costs Increase Output: the anywhere, anytime connectivity enabled by WiFi&Light helps you better utilize plant resources while maximizing efficiency by enabling unified communications, remote asset monitoring, and data sharing to aid collaborative processes. Mitigate Risks: remote monitoring and control of all valves, sensors, actuators and systems in the plant. Decrease Downtime: WiFi&Light fully redundant, self-optimizing infrastructure allows you to leverage predictive maintenance to keep all assets operating at peak efficiency.
Pilot plant in manufacturing company
WiFi&Light offering strategy WiFi & Light integrates lighting fixtures in Solid-State-Lighting technology, equipped with high efficiency optical systems, with a communication system and control in Wi-Fi Full Mesh technology WiFi & Light enables Internet-of-Things services WiFi & Light enables a special revenue by managing the lighting systems that make up the infrastructure. This revenue is able to repay the cost of the WiFi infrastructure in a very short payback time close to 2 years.
