Solar lighting specialist Gama Sonic is collaborating with Georgia’s Peachtree Corners smart city hub. It is the company’s first deployment of customised intelligent lighting programming timers designed to enhance urban safety.

Gama Sonic’s technology allows additional lighting to be deployed throughout the city without traditional hard-wired lighting installations. It supports sustainability initiatives, using integrated panels that store solar energy for consistent performance on cloudy days. Gama Sonic’s lighting solutions have already been deployed along the trail head of the city’s walking trail system, where the lights are programmed to shine brighter during the early morning and late evening hours.

“The peace of mind that well-lit public areas bring to our community is invaluable,” said Peachtree Corners City Manager Brian Johnson. “By installing Gama Sonic’s solar lighting solutions, we’ve been able to improve resident and visitor safety without facing the usual challenges of disruptive construction or extended project timelines, which can be costly, that can come with other types of lighting. Gama Sonic’s innovative approach ensures that residents utilising the trails during early morning or late hours enjoy higher visibility, providing an enhanced user experience. We are looking forward to seeing our residents enjoy these lighting solutions at the trail head.”

“Peachtree Corners was our ideal choice for this collaboration because of its visionary approach to creating a truly smart city that leverages innovative technologies to improve the lives of its residents,” said Gama Sonic General Manager Itay Parness. “The city itself is the perfect environment to demonstrate how our solar-powered lighting solutions can seamlessly integrate into urban spaces and enhance both safety and sustainability. This collaboration showcases the potential of our technology to not only meet the needs of today’s cities but to push the boundaries of what’s possible in public lighting.”
