Smart sensors make smart cities. From street lighting to energy management, the role of sensors has grown. Automating street light operation is nothing new. But with the rise of intelligent sensors, street light management is now another piece of the smart community solutions utilities provide.
Landis+Gyr’s smart street lighting solution offers the ability to adjust and adapt lighting to provide optimal coverage and safety for traffic conditions. Now, using intelligent communications technologies and smart sensors, the system can also pave the way for other smart city applications, such as parking and traffic management, outage detection, air quality sensing, weather sensing and more – all on a single, secure network.
Use Cases
- Traffic Sensing to optimize lighting schedules and inform traffic planning
- Driver Alert Sensing warns drivers of special traffic situations, to enhance street safety
- Freezing Temperature Sensing alerts traffic to potentially unseen freezing/icy road conditions
- Acoustic Monitoring to inform noise management and mitigation strategies
- Pollution Sensing provides cost-effective city-wide pollution mapping and profiling
Features
- Radar-based traffic sensing provides vehicle and pedestrian traffic count and speed data
- Sensors warn of emergency vehicle approach, presence of children, wrong-way travel
- Provides visual signal when drop in ambient temperature creates potential for freezing
- Enables low-cost system for noise profiling and management across communities
- Cost-effective pollution sensing with built-in networking and utilities grid connection
Functions
- Enhanced safety features including health monitoring and outage detection
- Improved energy and asset management
- Enables layered Intelligence – Intelligence when and where you need it
- Serves as a foundation for smart city applications
Availability
- Americas
