The concept of smart cities came into being as a consequential development to Internet of Things (IoT), digital connectivity, global warming and the compelling necessities for energy saving. More than 50 per cent of the world’s population lives in cities, a city environment, with a closely knit street light network became a natural choice for a smart city concept, hosting sensor networks and wireless communications for traffic control, smart parking, noise and air quality monitoring, incident detection, and more. Smart city lights are not stand-alone system. They have to be integrated with other systems under what is known as IoT. Hence the chosen smart city light poles should be able to accommodate a full range of lighting controls compatible to remote control and integral with suitable sensors for the respective application.
In fact, the smart city pole is going to be a service platform for various services for Network redundancy, application areas such as mobile connectivity (WLAN), traffic control, security camera (CCTV), information transfer, public announcement with loud speakers, smart parking, environmental monitoring and even the electric charger for electric cars etc.
K-Lite announces the introduction of smart city poles (intelligent poles) with its modular solution, to cater to the above needs in the upcoming smart cities with the salient features.
