LumiRing is an embedded systems and hardware engineering company headquartered in Buffalo, New York. Founded by Andrey Nedranets, the company designs and manufactures distributed control hardware for access control, building automation, industrial automation, and infrastructure systems. The LumiRing platform decouples devices, protocols, and transport — letting edge devices ingest signals, execute real-time control logic, and communicate across radio, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, IP, and MQTT into local servers, private clouds, or public clouds.

The company’s flagship product is Wireless Wiegand (WW-G3), a transparent control link that carries Wiegand (4 to 80 bit), OSDP including secure channel, RS-485, and dry contact signals between controllers, readers, gates, elevators, locks, sensors, and relays — over an encrypted long-range radio link operating on 868 MHz (EU) and 915 MHz (NA) frequency bands with AES-128 encryption and 200 FHSS channels. The system requires no WiFi, no internet, no cloud connection, and no subscription. Beyond signal transport, Wireless Wiegand functions as a protocol converter and edge controller, with relay-only operation, programmable I/O, hybrid wired and wireless RS-485 daisy-chain topologies, and MQTT-native bridging into IP and cloud infrastructure when required.

Wireless Wiegand is compatible with access control panels and readers from HID, Mercury, Lenel, Software House, Genetec, Honeywell, Bosch, ZKTeco, Suprema, Paxton, Brivo, AMAG, Avigilon, and other industry-standard manufacturers. It is also compatible with gate operators from LiftMaster, DoorKing, Viking, Nice, Linear, FAAC, BFT, Came, and HySecurity. The product is deployed in retrofit installations, historic and heritage buildings, airports, elevators, remote gates, parking structures, perimeter security, construction sites, industrial facilities, building automation systems, SCADA-style distributed I/O, and government installations including those requiring HSPD-12 and OSDP compliance.

LumiRing also produces RFID readers, network access controllers, all-in-one access control devices, USB credential issuers, zero-touch exit buttons, and configuration software under the AIR, ICON, and LRM product lines. The platform’s edge-first architecture allows control logic to execute locally without cloud round-trips, while the transport layer carries signals across whichever medium fits the site — radio, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or hybrid combinations.

The LumiRing engineering team brings decades of combined experience in RF design, physical security, industrial electronics, and embedded systems. The company manufactures in-house and supports projects from design through certification and production.
