Without network connected lighting, cities and operators have several challenges, including:
-
Lack of proper visibility to the performance of lights typically provided by multiple vendors
Minimal control capability, such as dimming automation
Inability to leverage the lighting point of presence to provide additional city services or ingest new data streams
Inability to manage and control the lifecycle of individual lamps from a central platform
Customers can now monitor the movement of people and vehicles, as well as light streets and other areas. Edge analytics, built in to the network, determines location and movements.
Data from these sensors and lights is ingested by Cisco Kinetic for Cities Cloud, where customers and partners can leverage the robust data models and associated APIs to report on and build applications against the data.
