Smart City
This small town leveraged our smart city solutions to transform its city-owned buildings, many of which were underutilized, into efficient and modern spaces that enhance energy savings and improve the experiences of staff and residents. Smart thermostats were installed to enable centralized and automated temperature management, while people counting cameras and occupancy sensors optimized thermostat and lighting control, reducing energy waste.
Throughout the town, smart light switches and outlets were installed to further enhance energy efficiency and flexibility. Water and gas leak detectors were implemented in every building to provide real-time alerts, preventing costly damage and increasing safety. At the event center, an air quality sensor was installed to monitor indoor air quality and trigger ventilation when needed, ensuring a comfortable environment for guests.
E-Ink displays were introduced as versatile solutions, serving as digital name tags for offices and as dynamic event boards to showcase upcoming activities at the event center. To support modern connectivity needs, a high-density Wi-Fi system was deployed at the event center, ensuring seamless internet access for all guests. These smart city upgrades not only improved operational efficiency but also elevated the town’s ability to serve its residents and visitors in a more sustainable and technologically advanced way.
People counting cameras were installed in all city buildings to monitor the number of people entering and exiting each location. This data allowed the city to better understand usage patterns and ensure adequate staffing during busy times. The city improved operational efficiency and enhanced service delivery to residents and visitors. This technology also provided valuable insights for long-term planning and resource allocation across all city facilities.
Occupancy sensors were installed in offices and common areas across all city buildings, enabling the smart lighting system to conserve energy by automatically turning off lights in unoccupied spaces. These sensors also worked in tandem with the smart thermostat system, adjusting temperatures in areas where no one was present to further reduce energy consumption. This was especially beneficial for underutilized buildings, where occupancy data allowed the city to scale back energy usage during times of low activity without compromising comfort or functionality. By optimizing power usage across both high-traffic and underutilized facilities, the city significantly reduced operational costs while promoting sustainability and environmental responsibility.
Smart thermostats were installed in every city building to help keep things comfortable while saving energy. These thermostats used schedules, temperature sensors, people counting cameras, and occupancy sensors to adjust the temperature automatically. They made sure energy wasn’t wasted in empty rooms but kept spaces comfortable when people were there. This simple system helped the city save money on energy costs while still keeping everyone comfortable.
E-Ink displays are used as informational tools throughout the city. Installed on office doors as name tags, they can be quickly and easily updated whenever employees move offices, eliminating the need for new signage. These displays are also used to share important information with residents, providing a dynamic way to keep everyone informed. With their low power consumption and easy customization, E-Ink displays offer a modern and efficient solution for both city operations and community engagement.
The city and county collaborated to install our water level monitoring sensors along roadways that frequently flood. These sensors send real-time alerts to the city, county, and emergency services, enabling them to take proactive measures such as closing roads and sharing accurate flooding information with residents. This system not only enhances public safety but also helps emergency services respond more efficiently by avoiding flooded roads during calls, reducing delays and improving response times. This partnership demonstrates a commitment to using smart technology to protect residents and streamline emergency operations.
The city installed leak and gas detectors in every building to enhance safety and minimize damage. Leak detectors were strategically placed under sinks, water heaters, air conditioners, and in sensitive areas like file and IT rooms. These detectors provided real-time alerts to maintenance staff when a leak was detected, enabling a rapid response to prevent costly damage.
Gas detectors were installed in areas where natural gas is present, such as near water heaters, heating units, stoves, and similar equipment. These detectors sent immediate alerts to maintenance staff and building occupants in case of a gas leak, ensuring swift action to address the issue and improve overall safety. This proactive approach helps protect city assets, reduce repair costs, and ensure the safety of employees and residents.
