Recently, at the prestigious 8th "Bright Lighting Cup" awards—a benchmark event in the smart lighting industry—Shanghai Creatrol Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. (Creatrol Sensor) stood out among numerous competitors. Driven by its R&D breakthroughs in Edge AI sensing and exceptional market performance, the company swept two major honors: the "AI Lighting Special Award" and the "Smart Lighting New Channel Award" for 2025.
In the highly competitive "AI Lighting Special Award" category, Creatrol’s "Self-learning Dual-mode Sensing — Dual-Tech Presence Sensor" became the center of attention.
Addressing chronic industry pain points—such as high false alarm rates, debugging complexities, and weak static detection—Creatrol did not rely on simple hardware stacking. Instead, it pioneered the integration of an Edge AI Agent into individual lighting components, creating a fused architecture of "mmWave Radar + PIR + Embedded AI."
Unlike traditional cloud-based processing, Creatrol’s Edge AI Agent achieves a millisecond-level "perception-decision" closed loop locally on the device:
Dual-mode Cross-verification: AI algorithms cross-reference radar micro-motion data with PIR thermal signals to effectively filter out non-biological interferences like swaying curtains, plants, and fans.
Environmental Self-learning: Upon power-up, the sensor proactively scans and builds a spatial model, automatically identifying and masking constant interference sources (such as AC vents). This ensures a "zero-configuration" adaptive experience that becomes more precise over time.
Creatrol also secured the "Smart Lighting New Channel Award," validating its keen insight into commercial implementation. In high-end "minimalist" and commercial lighting environments, traditional sensors often frustrate designers with fixed positions and the need for ceiling cutouts.
Creatrol integrated the lighting hardware supply chain to launch the industry's first Integrated Magnetic Track Dual-Tech Sensor:
Zero-Tool Installation: It reuses existing lighting tracks for both power and mounting, achieving "1-second magnetic attachment, plug-and-play" functionality.
Flexible Layout: As office workstations or retail shelves are rearranged, users can move the sensors like building blocks without any rewiring.
This aesthetic of "seeing light but not the fixture; seeing intelligence but not the wires" has gained immense popularity globally. Following its success at the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair, Creatrol successfully entered high-end markets in Europe and the Middle East, where privacy protection and aesthetic standards are paramount.
As a core drafter of China's first mmWave radar standard for the civil affairs industry, Creatrol is committed to the standardization and professionalization of sensing components.
"Being honored alongside industry leaders like ZTE and Opple is the ultimate affirmation of our 'Edge Computing + Multi-modal Sensing' roadmap," stated the head of Creatrol Sensor. "We will continue to deepen our work in embedded AI algorithms to become the 'Digital Sensing Nerve' of smart lighting systems, contributing to global carbon neutrality with more precise, green, and aesthetic sensing solutions."
