Challenge
Challenging Technology
Clever lighting was a niche technology, and expertise on the hardware side of the product was critical to success, and only a few firms had this capability.
Unchartered Waters
LumiGrow had innovative ideas and needed a process and experienced team to help prioritize and develop working software quickly and cost-effectively.

Solution
Distributed Communication Architecture
As LED grow lights increase, connection to WiFi becomes unreliable, so a mesh communication architecture using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) was designed to solve the problem.
DLI Algorithm for Solar Prediction
The Daily Light Integral (DLI) algorithm creates an optimal lighting environment that controls the light intensity, spectrum, and photoperiod.
Firmware Collaboration
We worked with their VP of engineering to align the tech strategy roadmap with their business goals. He relied on MEV to take ownership of executing the technical strategy and roadmap.
Reducing Technical Debt
We shipped new software and reduced technical debt. We provided system stability by establishing CI/CD, backups, system monitoring, and logging.
