Pioneering Technology
Long Term Reliability
Rigorously Tested
Westire Technology Limited, originally known as SELC IRELAND was established in 1982 by Sean Noone BSc DBA. Sean an astute electronic engineer and successful inventor, was inspired to develop the ambient light sensor device now used on street lights around the world after visiting the Irish Electricity Supply (ESB) utility street light maintenance depot and observing the high rate of failed street light dusk to dawn control photocells received from ESB maintenance depots around Ireland.
Soon after setting up SELC, Sean and his team launched a ground breaking ambient light sensor doped to match the CIE photopic response curve, which is now the industry standard globally as it switches street lights on and off accurately thus saving energy, reducing street and street pavement accidents and reducing streetlight maintenance.
